Inzolia
Among the native varieties, Inzolia has a Mediterranean expression and typically boasts orange blossom and almond aromas.
Vineyard
Thanks to many years of experience planting and growing Inzolia at Tenuta Regaleali, this variety has found a solid home on the northern slope of our hills here in Monreale.
Soil
The good fertility of the soil, combined with the northern exposure which protects the vines from the hot Scirocco winds, allows the grapes to preserve fresh aromas.
