Curatolo Arini `Gagliardetta` Zibibbo Secco from Sicily, Italy, is a vibrant white (still) wine crafted from Zibibbo (Muscat of Alexandria) grapes. This dry and aromatic expression, from the oldest family-owned Marsala producer, undergoes cold maceration and fermentation in stainless steel, followed by six months on its lees, ensuring remarkable freshness and complexity. It offers bright aromas of orange blossom, zesty citrus fruit, and delicate white rose, leading to a fresh, balanced palate with a distinctive hint of bergamot. This versatile wine pairs beautifully with a range of dishes, from lean fish and shellfish to light appetizers, making it a delightful choice for any occasion.
