Sicilian personality bottled in a wine with a long tradition. Made with 100% Cataratto grapes, lively and harmonious.
Fresh and savoury on the palate with hints of apricot, orange blossom and aromatic herbs on the nose.
The origin of the name “Catarratto” is debated, but it may come from the word for “abundance,” due to the grape’s high yield and is one of the oldest native grape variety in Sicily.
