Details
70% Catarratto blends with 30% of the aromatic Zibibbo grape variety here. This is tropical and ripe, with attractive prickly pear notes and a subtly oily weight in the mouth. Expect a touch of rose and some lemon rind on the finish - beautifully aromatic and balanced.

Pairing guide
We’re huge fans of this spritely and refreshing Catarratto blend - it’s a brilliant showcase of an underrated white Italian variety which packs a real punch when it comes to food pairing. For us, Catarratto wines always work best with goat’s cheese dishes, such as tagliatelle with mushroom and goat’s cheese, or breaded goat’s cheese in a warm salad. However, it’s also brilliant with Sicilian-style seafood pasta dishes, grilled fish and delicately-spiced chicken creations, as well as with simple green salads and vegetables like green beans.

Wine region
Sicily, Italy
Sicily is a productive island located in the Mediterranean Sea, off the southern coast of Italy. The island has a varied landscape, with low coastal plains to hills and even active volcanic mountains. The climate is Mediterranean, with hot, dry summers and mild winters. Disease pressure is low thanks to drying coastal breezes making the region ideal for organic farming practices. The soils are volcanic, sandy, and clay. Sicily can be divided into three wine regions, including the volcanic Etna DOC on the eastern side of the island, known for its red wines made from the Nerello Mascalese grape. The Marsala DOC on the island's western side is known for its fortified wines. The remaining Southeast of the Island produces a range of wines, notably Frappato and Nero d’Avola.
