  3/7/2024 - Wine Diplomats Likes this wine: 92 Points

  100% organic 20 year old Catarratto (the white grape most widely planted in Sicily and mostly used for Marsala). Lucido is the local name of a strand of Catarratto. Indigenous yeast. Fermented in stainless steel and aged for 7 months on its lees. Minimal sulfites added. About 23,000 bottles produced.
  
  The nose initially highlights the lees contact but there are savory herbal and citrus notes as well. Something like fennel. The palate is singing with a nice balance of tartness, fruit and salinity. A delicious wine with character that doesn’t rely on obvious oak and sugar to impress.
