About Passopisciaro Passobianco

At the summit of the slopes of Mount Etna (Sicily, Italy), where the solidified lava of yesteryears stains the earth black and the nights are unexpectedly cold, even in the height of August, a white wine is born that encapsulates the essence of an extraordinary land. Passopisciaro, the winery of Andrea Franchetti, achieved what seemed impossible: reviving abandoned terraces and restoring poetry to Etna through viticulture. Each plot here tells tales of eruptions, intense light, and thermal contrasts, making vineyard work a true daily adventure.

Passopisciaro has become a symbol of Sicilian passion for the land and wine. For over two decades, Franchetti has balanced tradition with boldness, meticulously selecting each plot and attending to every detail of the winemaking process. His approach combines respect for indigenous varieties with a curiosity to explore new possibilities, all with the aim of creating wines that reflect the identity of Etna and the elegance of a terroir unique in the world.

Passopisciaro Passobianco is the result of this relentless pursuit. Crafted from Chardonnay grapes planted between 850 and 1000 metres altitude, it thrives in a volcanic soil that is loose and mineral-rich, imparting freshness and character. The harvest is conducted manually, selecting clusters at their optimal ripeness day by day. Following fermentation in stainless steel at controlled temperatures and partial ageing in concrete tanks and large oak barrels on fine lees, the wine offers a brilliant and balanced expression, where fresh acidity, minerality, and citrus nuances intertwine with delicate notes of ripe fruit.

To savour Passopisciaro Passobianco is to secure a ticket for a journey to the essence of Etna. Its freshness and balanced body make it an ideal companion for celebratory moments and for pairing with seasonal fish, light rice dishes, or even soft cheeses. Each sip is a reflection of the volcanic landscape, the elevation of its vineyards, and the passion of its creators: a white wine that surprises, fascinates, and leaves one yearning for more.
