100% Catarratto. Catarratto is the second most-planted variety in Italy and the most planted in Sicily. There is a more common type and then a more unusual, though not rare, type called Lucido, whose berries have a less powdery and thus more shiny surface and more significantly a higher potential for making quality wines, for which this bottling is named. De Bartoli has vines not at its home estate in the contrada of Samperi near Marsala but slightly north in the province of Trapani (where their Pignatello is planted as well). These 2 hectares of 15-year-old vines are planted on sandy loam soils on flat land, organically farmed and hand-harvested (as for all De Bartoli wines). The fruit is cooled, whole-cluster-pressed and naturally settled before fermentation with native yeasts in tank in stainless steel vats. The wine is aged on its fine lees in steel for 7 months; total sulfur is a moderate 39 mg/liter. Lucido is classified as an IGT Terre Siciliane and was first bottled in 2008.

Region: Sicily

Sicily has been an important wine region for thousands of years, with the ancient Greek settlers being among the first to discover its remarkable aptitude for viticulture. It isn't difficult to understand why they were impressed, and nor is it hard to understand why the island's wine industry continues to boom to this day. The climate on Sicily is ideal for wine production – sunshine beating down on the vineyards almost all year round, and a highly fertile volcanic soil produced from such magnificent peaks as Mount Etna. Sicily's vineyards are mostly used for the production of sweet dessert wines and fortified wines, such as the famous wine of Marsala, but the variety found across the island is impressive, and results in a great range of dry white and red wines packed full of exciting fruit flavors.

Country: Italy

Italy is recognised as being one of the finest wine producing countries in the world, and it isn't difficult to see why. With a vast amount of land across the country used primarily for vineyard cultivation and wine production, each region of Italy manages to produce a wide range of excellent quality wines, each representative of the region it is produced in. Any lover of Italian wines will be able to tell you of the variety the country produces, from the deliciously astringent and alpine-fresh wines of the northern borders, to the deliciously jammy and fruit-forward wines of the south and the Italian islands. Regions such as Barolo are frequently compared with Bordeaux and Burgundy in France, as their oak aged red wines have all the complexity and earthy, spicy excellence of some of the finest wines in the world, and the sparkling wines of Asti and elsewhere in Italy can easily challenge and often exceed the high standards put forward by Champagne. Thanks to excellent terrain and climatic conditions, Italy has long since proven itself a major player in the world of wines, and long may this dedication to quality and excellence continue.
