Advice to enjoy this wine at its best.

Let’s talk about Catarratto Organic - Spadafora

More questions

The Catarratto BIO wine from the Spadafora winery is a tribute to Sicilian organic and sustainable viticulture. Made exclusively from Catarratto grapes, one of the island’s most appreciated native varieties, this wine represents the essence of tradition and respect for nature.

Color: The Catarratto shows a light straw yellow color, enriched with greenish reflections that suggest its freshness and vigor.

Nose: On the nose, it offers an intriguing and complex bouquet. Notes of ripe white fruit such as pear and peach blend with hints of white flowers and herbal scents. A slight touch of fresh almond and a hint of minerality complete the olfactory profile, making it particularly appealing.

Palate: On the palate, the Catarratto BIO is balanced and harmonious. The attack is fresh and pleasantly acidic, opening to a medium structure and a pleasant persistence. The flavors of fresh fruit are confirmed, accompanied by a delicate sapidity that invites another sip.

Pairings: This organic wine pairs perfectly with fish dishes, such as tuna carpaccio or baked sea bass. It is also excellent with fresh cheeses or as an aperitif to stimulate the appetite.

The Catarratto BIO is not just a wine, but an expression of the Sicilian terroir that the Spadafora family preserves with dedication and passion. Ideal for those seeking an authentic and nature-respecting wine.
