Fabio Ferracane Aggiara Catarratto 2021 cl 75

Welcome to the winery that is passionately dedicated to managing 5 hectares of vineyards (with two more on the way). The daily mission of this winery is to create authentic wines that express to the fullest the character of the Marsala territory.

They grow varieties such as Catarratto, Grillo, Nero d’Avola and Merlot (the latter from a vineyard owned by their father). Most of the vineyards are located in the vicinity of Marsala’s Stagnone Islands Nature Reserve. They fall in love with this area every day, enjoying the sea breeze and warm Sicilian sun, with spectacular views of the islands of Favignana, Levanzo and Marettimo and the reflections of the Saline Islands.

Respect for the authenticity of the terroir is reflected in vineyard practices, with few sulfur and copper treatments, carefully chosen according to climatic conditions and humidity. Interventions in the vineyard are customized, focusing on producing quality and healthy grapes. In less favorable years, they carefully select the clusters.

In the winery, they take a natural approach to fermentations, with minimal use of chemicals. The addition of sulfites is limited, and temperature control is essential, especially in the warmer months.

Some of their wines are made without added sulfur and without temperature control. They make adaptive decisions each year, because making wine is an art that embraces the variety and changing nature of the vineyard.

Their bottle labels tell the story of their passion for “slow farming,” celebrating the uniqueness and beauty of the land in which they are immersed. The image of the vineyard, shoots, leaves and grapes is an intentional graphic choice, representing the philosophy of wine, from the vineyard to the winery to the bottle that will be enjoyed in pleasant company.

Description: Aggiara is a sensory journey into the heart of Catarratto, a variety that finds its ultimate expression in this unique creation. Coming from the picturesque C/da Bellusa, between Marsala and Salemi, at an altitude of 160 meters above sea level, this Terre Siciliane IGP white represents the essence of the territory.

Grapes are harvested by hand during the second decade of September, ensuring that the clusters are fully ripe. Vinification is an artisanal process, with 21 days of maceration on the skins in amphora, followed by pressing and a 12-month aging on the lees, also in amphora.

The result is a wine with an intense deep yellow color, tinged with orange, that envelops the palate with enveloping aromas of yeast, bergamot and almond. The flavor is characterized by good body, lively freshness and distinct savoriness, with delicate tannin complementing the taste harmony.

With an alcohol content of 12.5 percent vol. and a total sulfur content of only 12 mg/L, Aggiara is also distinguished by its limited production, with only 179 bottles representing excellence to be enjoyed on special occasions. The ideal serving temperature is between 16° and 18°C, inviting you to discover the complexity and authenticity of this extraordinary wine.
