Ciello Bianco Catarratto

The Vesco family, deeply embedded in the Sicilian wine scene, are the ones behind the Ciello label. Their organic vineyards are perched in the hills above Alcamo, an area perfect for cultivating high-quality grapes. In the winery, they stick to natural methods: no fining or filtration, wild yeasts, and minimal sulphur. Yet, their approach is anything but old-fashioned - state-of-the-art equipment and practices ensure precision. It's a blend of tradition and innovation and a beacon of quality Sicilian winemaking.

The fruit is picked early to retain acidity and freshness resulting in bright, crunchy and satisfying wines. The local Catarratto grape undergoes a short maceration on the skins, which lends a bit of grip to the wine, and also contributes to the deeper colour. It has bright flavours of golden apple, quince, dandelion and salt, with plenty of refreshing acidity.
