100% Catarratto Lucido.
Hand-picked mid-September
The grapes are de-stemmed and very softly pressed with a pneumatic press. The must is decanted before starting the fermentation. After the fermentation is finished the wine is racked and kept on fine lees for at least 5 months, with frequent battonages.
Straw-coloured with flecks of green. The characterful bouquet is a little spicy and reminiscent of jasmine, aromatic herbs and nutmeg, with delicate touches of white peach. On the palate, there is a strong mineral back bone, perfectly balanced with lively acidity.
With antipasti, grilled vegetables or pasta with fish and vegetables.
