This is what good wine from the Catarratto grape tastes like

Catarratto is the most widely planted grape variety in Sicily. It's even the second most widely planted in Italy. Generally, Catarratto produces fairly neutral white wines. But there are a few exceptions. If the winemaker takes it seriously.

Originally, Catarratto was an ingredient in the sweet Sicilian Marsala. Today, most Catarratto is distilled into wine alcohol or is blended into a thick mass of grape concentrate. This concentrate is then trucked to northern Italy, where major wineries use it to flavor their own wines.
