Tasting Notes

Antisa is the “wait”, full of expectations and projects, dreams and trust. Our Catarratto is the most ancient, and “common” grape variety, typical of the Sicilian territory, but becoming rare. It’s cultivated at Regaleali at over 900 meters above sea level for a unique aroma with hints of pink grapefruit.
