Inzolia – Catarratto Baglio del Sole

Inzolia – Catarratto Baglio del Sole

The combination of the two noblest white grape varieties, whose full potential is only now being fully understood, particularly when it comes to the Catarratto variety, historically used in the production of Marsala. Combined together in similar percentages (although varied from vintage to vintage), the two varieties create a wine with a strong personality, unique in the world.
