Technical
After a careful selection in the vineyards, the grapes are placed in plateaux and left to dry in well aired rooms in the high hills called 'fruttai', in order to support the concentration of sugar, structure and aromas. In the first months of the year, the grapes are gently pressed by hand in a soft press. Then follows a long and slow fermentation in contact with the skins lasting about a month. Then the wine matures and aged in barrels until it is bottled. THE BASEThe artwork linked to the iconic base of Katkoot was conceived by Giovanni Leonardo Bassan.

Katkoot is an Arabic word that originally referred to a small bird but then evolved within the language to describe something small and precious. Katkoot is the union of art and viticulture; two separate worlds united by a succession of emotions and ideas contained in every artesian bottle. Katkoot mirrors its founders' lives. Two brothers who embarked from opposing paths, Giovanni Leonardo Bassan (artist) from the creative world and Francesco Vittorio Bassan a sommelier from the family wine and spirits business, coming together in an exciting rediscovery of their origin for a product that is small, precious and rooted in their Italian heritage.
