Baglio del Sole Inzolia Catarratto IGT Sicilia
A combination of two noble white grapes, Inzolia e Catarratto, whose enormous potential is only now being discovered (Cataratto in the past was used to produce Marsala). Now blended in similar quantities, which may vary from vintage to vintage, they create a quite unique wine with an interesting personality.
