Catarratto Lucido : discovering the unique scents of the Milazzo selection

A unique terroir the Terre della Baronia with its own 9 areas and related sub areas. L’area Garcitella dove coltiviamo questa selezione di Catarratto Lucido offre un ambiente particolarmente adatto alla valorizzazione delle caratteristiche di questa varietà. Qui le viti danno vita a grappoli che regalano aromi di frutta tropicale matura ricca di sfumature, with greater verticality and an evident acidic backbone.

WORK IN THE CELLAR

In order to enhance the thiol expression – tropical landscape of Catarratto, the grapes are pressed whole under nitrogen, completando tutto il ciclo produttivo fino all’imbottigliamento al riparo totale dell’ossigeno. This is achieved by saturating the tanks and carrying out the transfers in counter pressure with nitrogen.

SENSORY NOTES

Of a beautiful intense straw yellow color with green reflections. Clear notes of white fruit on the nose, ripe pear and white melon, chiude con un finale complesso dove emergono una speziatura da vegetale aromatico che ricorda molto la melissa. On the palate it shows an important structure, enhanced by a nice acidic note that supports gustatory persistence.
