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.

The Sallier de la Tour is located in the Monreale DOC area, in the Jato valley, in an area with a vocation for wine-growing that has been able to make the most of this land's natural propensity for Syrah. The landscape, 77 hectares of which 38 are planted with vines, is also punctuated by olive groves and fruit trees all around the 'La Monaca' wine cellar, an Art Nouveau touch in the middle of the countryside.

A family estate, belonging to the Sallier de La Tour cousins, which has been lovingly cared for for generations and which in 2009 joined the Regaleali, Capofaro, Tascante and Whitaker estates, the Tasca d'Almerita world. Following a project of enhancing the terroir, the company combines experience and experimentation, authenticity and passion every day, cultivating together with Syrah the indigenous varieties: Grillo, Inzolia and Nero d'Avola. Today, this project speaks to wine enthusiasts, attracted by the urban countryside. Read more
