A rare Sicilian white of distinctive character, Intorcia's Cataratto Lucido captures the island's aromatic diversity. Expect the primary fruit settled into a complex tapestry of dried stone fruits, bitter almond, and savory bread crust. This is no ordinary Sicilian white. Hand-harvested grapes undergo 12–15 days of skin maceration in oak vats, followed by 6 months aging in Slavonian oak barrels. The extended skin contact develops natural tannins and antioxidants that protect against oxidation, creating a structured wine built to evolve. Serve at 10–12°C to preserve the complex oak and maceration characteristics.
