2024 Marco de Bartoli, 'Lucido' Catarratto

Lucido is made with 100% Catarratto grapes (the white grape more cultivated in Sicily), and exactly with its clone called Catarratto bianco lucido, fresher and more delicate compared to the common variety, that displays the typical bitter aftertaste.

The name “lucido” or “extra-lucido” (shining) comes from the polished appeareance of the skins, lacking some pruina, the whitish coating found on the skins that give grapes a velvety touch, modifying the cluster’s appeareance.
