Denatile
Lucido
Terre Siciliane IGP
This native Sicilian variety grows in the Trapani area, which is north of Marsala, to the extreme west of the island. Vine training is by traditional Spalliera system.
100% Lucido
Lucido grapes are meticulously hand-harvested in the second half of September, ensuring optimal ripeness and varietal expression.
The grapes are gently destemmed and very softly pressed. The must remains in a tank for one night at a temperature of around 10°C, allowing the natural sedimentation of all the solid particles to occur. The wine is moved into a stainless steel tank, where fermentation takes place at 17-19°C for 10-12 days. Following fermentation, the wine is kept on its fine lees for around 4 – 6 months.
Denatile Lucido is elegant and bright, characterized by fresh citrus notes and delicate floral hints. There is a perfect balance of pure citrus fruit on the palate, with a backbone of acidity.
This wine is perfect for drinking on its own as an aperitif or accompanied with seafood.
