DESCRIPTION
In a nutshell:
A ripe and invitingly drinkable dry white from Western Sicily.
The lowdown:
Catarratto is the main white wine variety of these parts; it thrives in the warm Sicilian climate and can produce characterful and aromatic wines like here. The fruit for this comes from high altitude, hillside vineyards and is fermented carefully to keep its essential up fron fruitiness intact. A short period ageing on its lees also brings in a layer of richness. It has attractive aromatics of peach, honeysuckle and a hint of fennel while the rounded and gently honeyed flavours on the palate are balanced nicely by the lemony acidity.
When to drink:
A real 'any occasion', crowd pleaser and great with grilled fish, salads and cold meats.
Suitable for Vegans
