This is what good wine from the Carricante grape tastes like

The Italian Carricante grape produces crisp white wines. They smell and taste of fresh citrus notes of grapefruit, lime, and orange, along with anise, blossom, and fresh white fruit.

Carricante is found in Sicily. It is best known from the Etna Bianco DOC, which requires at least 60% Carricante. These are fresh, volcanic white wines with plenty of minerality. Sicilian winemakers like to blend their Carricante with other local grapes like Catarratto and Inzolia.
