"Miano" Bianco 2022

Castellucci Miano "Miano" Bianco. This is an amazing white from Sicily. Made with the local Catarratto grape, this is an Italian regional wine unique to Sicily. Catarratto means "waterfall" in Italian referring to the little waterfalls that slide down your glass after a sip. Hand-harvested and selected Catarratto grapes from alberello vines. These "little tree" vines are an ancient cultivation technique. Each vine produces just 2 clusters of grapes. The alberello are 3 feet tall staying close to the ground to stay warm during cool nights. And large green leaves that protect the grapes on hot sunny days. Medium body, super crisp, with illuminating exotic fruits and a sea salt minerality that will command your every sip. 40,000 bottles handcrafted from the high elevation Madonie Mountains of Sicily.
