Expert Review – Vintage 2023
James Suckling 91 Points | A delicious, round and silky white with aromas of fresh lemons, white peaches and warm spices on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with moderate acidity. Supple, with a mineral undertone at the center and a succulent finish.
Winemaker Description
Insolia grapes are manually selected in the Nordic microclimate of Ficuzza, Cusumano’s largest vineyard, located in Northern Sicily. Light straw color with soft aromas of freshly-picked flowers and herbs. This Insolia opens the palate with refreshing flavors of apples and pears. Hints of citrus zest lingers throughout for a harmonious balance.
Pairs with lighter dishes such as salads or seafood.
