This lively and distinctive sparkling wine is produced by Aldo Viola, a renowned natural winemaker based in Sicily, Italy. Known for his commitment to organic farming and minimal intervention, Aldo Viola crafts wines that beautifully express the unique terroir of his vineyards.

"Brutto" is made from 100% Catarratto grapes, sourced from the iron-rich limestone slopes in the northwest region of Sicily near Alcamo. The wine undergoes spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts and is finished using the ancestral method, resulting in a naturally sparkling wine with fine, persistent bubbles.

"Brutto" showcases a bright, straw-yellow hue with an aromatic bouquet of apricot, peach, and subtle smoky notes. On the palate, it offers crisp acidity and flavors of citrus, green apple, and minerals, balanced by a refreshing finish. The wine's complexity and purity make it a delightful and versatile choice for any occasion.

Pairings

This versatile sparkling wine pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, including seafood, fresh salads, and light appetizers. Its bright acidity and mineral-driven profile make it an excellent match for sushi, ceviche, and soft cheeses. Perfect for celebrations or as an aperitif, "Brutto" is sure to impress. -AO
