Discover the grape variety: Catarratto bianco lucido
Lively, fruity whites with a pale golden robe, an airy palate with more pronounced acidity than Catarratto Comune, and signature aromas of citrus (lemon, citron), white flowers and Mediterranean notes. Used as a single varietal or in blends, it is the base of many Sicilia DOC whites and traditional Marsala DOC. A variation of the indigenous Sicilian Catarratto with tighter clusters and shiny berries.

The wine region of Pays d'Oc
The single-grape IGP par excellence: modern, accessible, frank and fruity wines, the popular signature of the Midi. Spicy Syrah reds (pepper, blackberry), round Merlot, structured Cabernet, generous Grenache, supple Cinsault. Crisp, tangy rosés. Opulent Chardonnay whites, lively Sauvignon, floral, apricoty Viognier.
The word of the wine: Tired
Wine that is too old, faded or has suffered from handling such as racking or bottling. In the first case it is too late, in the second case the wine must be put to rest for a few weeks in the cellar.
