Feudo Montoni's vineyards sit so isolated in the high center of Sicily that phylloxera never reached them — meaning these old vines are own-rooted, ungrafted, and propagated only from the estate's own cuttings. For owner Fabio Sireci the formula is simple: ancient indigenous vines, farmed with deep respect for the land. The Catarratto del Masso comes from a single high-elevation plot of very old vines; 'Masso' refers to the rocky, iron-rich stones in the soil that give the wine its mineral backbone. Somehow these singular Sicilian gems remain criminally under-the-radar and affordable. A wine-geek treasure that overdelivers.
