2023 Tanca Nica 'Ghirbi Bianco' Vino Frizzante, Pantelleria, Italy
$63.00
Nicoletta hand paints the words Ghirbi on each bottle.
Ghirbi is made with all of the second-growth Zibibbo fruit from the parcels that go into Soki Soki and Terra Forte. Because second-growth yields are very low (2.5hl/h), this wine is not produced every vintage.
Winemaking:
This wine is made exclusively from second-growth Zibibbo produced by lateral shoots. After a one night maceration, the juice partially ferments in a small stainless steel tank before being bottled with a crown cap. The wine then continues to ferment in bottle, trapping C02 and resulting in a natural effervescence.

Tanca Nica 🌋
Tanca Nica is, in a word: other-worldly. Those who’ve tasted know it’s more than just (rare!) dry wine from Pantelleria – it’s a thought-provoking, highly specific expression of volcanic terroir.
