Catarratto "Vigna del Masso," Feudo Montoni - 2021

The Feudo Montoni estate is in the center of Sicily and the "Vigna del Masso" is a single-vineyard plot of very old vines. Vibrant with floral aromas, intense minerality, and fresh herb aromas. The Albarello (tree) vines enjoy a high elevation of 700 meters above sea level and shows fresh, mouth watering acidity.

Crisp and tangy, with just enough fruit and minerality for a wonderfully balanced wine.
