Italian sparkling wine organic CATARRATTO extra glossy brut - Valdibella

Catarratto / IGP Terre Siciliane / organic farming / ICEA certification

At the foot of Mount Bonifato, with a north / north-west exposure, we have a small extra shiny Catarratto vineyard. Its position is privileged because it rises above an extensive travertine bank of extraordinary importance for the geological reconstruction of this part of Sicily. In fact, it preserves millennia of history, testified by very important fossil finds.

Such a rich soil gives the grapes a very complex mineral framework that seemed particularly ideal for a sparkling base.
