This native white grape of Sicily is grown by the Cusumano team on the high hills behind the city of Palermo. The site is behind a woodland reserve and enjoys a sheltered yet sunny microclimate cooled by sea breezes and altitude. The wine has had no oak influence, but extended maturation on lees in tank, followed by aging in bottle to build complexity and texture. Insolia finds its perfect partner with seafood, but you could also partner this with risotto, goat cheese and light pasta dishes. “Blooming carnations, Meyer lemons and sun tea come together to construct a very umami nose. The palate stays with the savory, offering notes of lemonade-iced tea and pine nuts with a sea salt finish” 90 points, Danielle Callegari, Wine Enthusiast Show more
