SALITANO - a pure Catarratto, DOC SALAPARUTA

​DRY

Born from the clay-limestone soils, SALITANO is our tribute to the raw elegance of Sicilian nature. It speaks with minerality, whispers citrus, and closes with a hint of

sea salt — like a breeze arriving from the Mediterranean.

This is more than a wine: it’s a breath among wild vines, a story of resilience.

 

Authentic. Vertical. Uncompromising.

VARIETY GRAPES: Catarratto 100%

DENOMINATION: SALAPARUTA DOC

STYLE: Dry  

PRODUCTION ZONE: south-west Sicily, Santo Menna  estate 
CELLARING: Enjoy now until 2029 

VINEYARD: Altitude: from 390 to 420 m a.s.l.; 14% slope, hilly terrain. Soils are clay-limestone, rich in nutrients (potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron, manganese). Mild and humid winters; dry, breezy summers with strong diurnal temperature variations.

 

VINTAGE: A balanced year: dry spring with regular flowering, followed by a warm but not extreme summer. The wide day-night temperature swings in July and August enhanced both aromatic richness and freshness of the grapes.

 

WINEMAKING: The fruit is individually handpicked and whole bunch pressed to ensure purity and concentration of flavors. Fermentation occurs in stainless-steel tanks. Once vinification is finished, the wines are aged in small stainless-steel vats for 3 months before being bottled.

TASTING NOTES: Straw yellow with greenish reflections. The nose is fresh and

direct: lime, grapefruit, wild fennel, and broom blossom. On the palate, it’s tense, saline, and vertical, with a long, citrusy finish. Excellent harmony between nose

and mouth.
