Description: In Marsala, the westernmost promontory of Sicily, was found Cantine Rallo a successful integration between nature, technology and tradition. In 1860, at the apex of the shining age of Marsala, don Diego Rallo founded the wine-producing firm that has conserved and amplified the prestige won on the national and international markets.

Cantine Rallo is a farm of about 50 hectares, where all vineyards are the DOC zone of Alcamo. Here the grapes are harvested and safely transported into the winery using the excellent transport cooling system that safeguards the grapes during all the process and preserve their quality.

The grapes are pressed on arrival at the press house where they may be contact with skins at low temperature of 5° C for upto 12 hours to impart more flavour and fruit. The juice is drawn off from the press, into casks where it is allowed to ferment. Once the fermentation is over the wine will be racked (transferred into clean inox tanks) to avoid spoilage caused by over long contact with the lees. There the wine is monitored until bottling.

Made from 100% Cataratto Grapes it is a bright straw-yellow coloured wine with greenish nuances. The bouquet is flowery, fresh, intense but delicate while it has a dry, harmonious flavour with a hint of bitter almonds.
