About this wine
A Sicilian orange wine from the Baglio Antico range of Cantine Rallo, made from Catarratto with 3 days of skin maceration and zero added sulphur, rich, herbal, and thoroughly approachable for all its natural wine credentials.
Give it 10 minutes in the glass to open up.
Tasting notes
Rich and full on the nose, with pear skin and orange rind alongside fragrant wild herbs and ginger. The 3-day skin contact adds texture and a gentle grip without going into full amber wine territory. Thoroughly approachable and easy drinking despite being unfiltered and unfined. The description "downright easy drinking" is entirely accurate.
Goes with
Pork, veal, and poultry. Also works well alongside spiced vegetable dishes and aged cheeses.

The producer
Cantine Rallo is a historic Sicilian estate founded in 1860 in the Marsala area of western Sicily. Since the Vesco family took ownership in the 1990s and converted to organic farming, the estate has become one of the island's most interesting producers, farming without chemicals across vineyards in Alcamo, Marsala, and Pantelleria. The Baglio Antico range represents their most artisanal, low-intervention wines.
