One of most historical grapes of the region, Inzolia is an ancient Sicilian variety, once used to produce table grapes thanks to its sturdy skin. Found to also produce excellent wine, the varietal is prized for the Mediterranean aromas of orange blossom and almonds that are unique it.

The 2021 Inzolia is sweetly scented but also finessed and floral, with a dusting of confectioner's sugar and spice that gives way to ripe pear and hints of cardamom. This rushes the palate with soft textures, yet quickly takes on a reverberation of spicy green citrus, as nuances of tropical melon form towards the close. A salty flourish defines the finale, as the 2021 tapers off wickedly fresh and squeaky-clean, while leaving the mouth watering for more.
