Catarratto is a Sicilian white grape variety which is the second most planted single variety in Italy. Catarratto Bianco Lucido, which has a much smaller area under cultivation than Catarratto Bianco Comune, is superior in terms of quality. The variety is planted almost exclusively in the far western province of Trapani and has in the past been much used in the production of Marsala. Today, much of the vine's produce is considered surplus and is either distilled or transformed into grape concentrate. A handful of records point to the existance of a Catarratto Nero grape variety, although there is little evidence to suggest that this is still in use.
