Insolia is one of the oldest indigenous varietals cultivated in Sicily, displaying
great freshness, endowed with flavor and elegance.
Vineyard: The variety comes from a small vineyard (2 hectares only) at 250
m of altitude and marked by stoney clay and limestone. The vineyard is
located in Contrada Pozzillo, near Marsala. The vines average 20 years of
age and are managed according to environmentally friendly agriculture
practices, skipping any use of pesticides and herbicides. Guyot system.
TASTING NOTES
Color | vibrant, straw yellow.
Aroma | elegant and complex with citrus and green pear wrapped a core of
mineral and floral notes. The combination is an intriguing and charming
bouquet.
Taste | fresh and rich without being cloying and retaining enough acidity.
The strong mineral entry, almost salty, evolved into a powerful, long and well
balanced finish. It’s a liquid postcard from west Sicily displaying the
Mediterranean influence at its best. Overall it’s an intense mid weight wine,
capable to age at least 4 years from the harvest.
FOOD PAIRING | Grilled swordfish, couscous with tuna and cherry
tomatoes, clam pasta, grilled vegetables and white meats with sweet spices.
