Catarratto, from a 0.8ha vineyard at sea level in Contrada Spagnola, vines planted in 1989. Sandy/silty topsoil, but chalk below the surface.The grapes were destemmed/crushed and direct-pressed (no maceration). Fermentation and aging was in 54L glass demijohns.  Aged 7 months in demijohn and then a year in bottle.  Made only in magnums. A mere 280 1.5L bottles made (8 demijohns). Le Dame means “The Ladies” but it is also a play on damigiane (demijohns).
