Lucido Cataratto Terre Siciliane PGI - 2023
- Tax included.
Lucido is made with 100% Catarratto grapes (the most cultivated white grape in Sicily), specifically with its clone called Catarratto bianco lucido. It is fresher and more delicate compared to the common variety, displaying the typical bitter aftertaste. The name "lucido" or "extra-lucido" (shining) comes from the polished appearance of the skins, lacking some pruina, the whitish coating found on the skins that gives grapes a velvety touch, modifying the cluster’s appearance.
Originally planted in the first years of 2000 harvested during the second week of September. After cooling and a careful manual selection, the clusters are gently pressed. The limpid run starts fermenting with wild yeasts at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks, with a minimum addition of sulfites. It undergoes a 7-month aging process in stainless steel tanks on its own lees.
