Alessandro Viola is a very small producer located in the northwest corner of Sicily, south of Palermo. He is strictly committed to growing and championing local varieties, including Catarratto, Carricante, Grillo, Nero D’avola and Nerello Mascalese. His style is unique, and his commitment to organic and biodynamic practices with no additions is central to his winemaking philosophy.
Alessandro Viola's Carricat Orange is a blend of Carricante and Catarratto grapes, grown organically in Sicily. The wine is macerated on the skins for 48 hours, adding texture and complexity. It is aged for 6 months in fiberglass tanks, creating a vibrant and natural expression without filtration or added sulfur.
Fresh, bright and citrusy, with notes of dried apricots, orange zest, white flowers, and a distinct saline quality. Its texture is enhanced by brief skin contact, offering both depth and a lively mineral finish.
