Description

La Monaca wine, whose name comes from the historic winery, is made from special biotypes of Syrah that have shown unique adaptability on the Sallier de La Tour Estate. This is the Sicilian expression of a variety whose origin is disputed, but which has been found in the DOC Monreale terroir, specifically in the Jato valley, an ideal place to grow.
