Grown in the northwest of Sicily on 'terre brune' soil (rusty brown terroir of clay, chalk & iron). Guccione uses the noble Catarratto Extralucido clone here. Vinous wine, intens citrus & deeply salt. All with an intriguing edgyness. 'C' stands for the Cerasa vineyard. Fermented & aged for one year in tini (acacia wood cask of 3000 liter).

Wow. Dense, complex, herbaceous, smoky, silky, almost orange wine in texture. Serious wine with serious complexity. Great length and balance. Stunning.
