About This Wine


Caduto dalle Nuvole

Catarratto

Our Caduto dalle Nuvole Catarratto is just the wine you need to inspire a moment of joy-filled spontaneity. With cheerful notes of candied fruit and soft acidity, this bottle makes the perfect companion to sun-filled adventures and impromptu getaways. These grapes grew in the heart of the Mediterranean on the southeastern shores of Sicily. Here, this native Italian variety reaches plump ripeness levels as it basks in the radiant island sun. Cool sea breezes sweep through the vineyards from turquoise waters off the coast, protecting acid levels and bright fruit characteristics. With each sip, we invite you to experience a taste of the carefree Italian lifestyle. Recharge after a long workday with a chilled glass and your favorite show, or plan your next vacation. No matter the moment, our Catarratto encourages you to chase your bliss. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.

Wine Region


Sicily / Sicilia

Even among Italy's diverse wine regions, Sicily offers something unique. Abundant sunshine, varied volcanic terroirs, cool coastal breezes and drying African winds make it a perfect place for growing vines. The island is home to many indigenous grape varieties, featuring reds such as Sangiovese, Nero d'Avola and Frappato, and popular white varieties including Vermentino, Catarratto and Zibibbo. As the largest island in the Mediterranean, Sicily's position between Europe, Africa and the Levant has long made it a strategic location. The Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Normans and Arabs have all at various times controlled Sicily, and left their mark on its 4,000-year-old winemaking tradition.

Tasting Notes


  • A figure representing the Honey tasting note. Honey
  • A figure representing the Candied Fruit tasting note. Candied Fruit
  • A figure representing the Red Apple tasting note. Red Apple

Friendly aromas of fresh honey greet you above the rim of your glass. While this wine is fruit-forward, it is not as sweet as your nose may trick you into expecting. Soft acidity rinses away candied red apple and cinnamon notes for a light, clean finish.
