Discover the grape variety: Catarratto

Structured and fresh dry whites with a pale golden colour, a full palate with preserved acidity and signature aromas of citrus (lemon, pomelo), almond, white flowers and mineral notes from Sicilian terroirs. Productive. A pillar of dry Sicilian whites (Alcamo DOC, Etna Bianco) and an essential component of traditional Marsala, thriving on the volcanic soils of the Trapani area. Autochthonous Sicilian white variety, one of the most planted in Sicily and Italy.

The wine region of Vinho Verde

Portuguese star of fresh, slightly sparkling white. High-end Alvarinho in Monção and Melgaço: mineral, precise whites with signature notes of lemon, white peach, flowers and a tense saline finish. Aromatic Loureiro (orange blossom, bay leaf), round Trajadura, full Avesso, lively Arinto. Light natural effervescence, low alcohol (9-11°), sharp vivacity: ideal aperitif and seafood.


The wine region of Minho

Portugal's northernmost region, heart of Atlantic Vinho Verde. Signature lively, lightly sparkling whites with signature notes of citrus, green apple, white flowers, fresh herbs and a saline touch, thirst-quenching, low-alcohol palate — the sunshine wine par excellence. High-end star Alvarinho (peach, exotic fruits, minerality), floral Loureiro (laurel), ample Trajadura, taut Arinto, structured Avesso. Vinhão as lively red.

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.
