Description
This wine was first produced in 2002 as a Nero d'Avola from the high hills, an expression of the Tenuta Regaleali terroir, to enhance one of Sicily's most promising heritage varieties. A wine that expresses the complexity of the terroir and the variety from which it comes yet maintains drinkability and pleasantness. The wine is aged for 12 months in second-passage barriques, but on the palate, the woody note is not invasive. The company's purpose is to provide a monovarietal wine with a precise organoleptic reference.

Over the years, the Estate's winemaking vocation has been consolidated thanks to the strategies implemented by the various protagonists who have alternated its management, from Count Giuseppe to Count Lucio to arrive at the current generation, Alberto and Giuseppe.
The winemaking first tried the use of traditional varieties, such as Nero d'Avola and Inzolia, to expand, later, in the testing of International varieties and their use, with great success. "Regaleali has a very strong and very clear DNA, all we can do is preserve this character and try not to compromise what nature has given to this place"
With these words Alberto testifies the attention he dedicates to sustainability and motivates the birth, in 2010, of SOStain, a Sicilian "green" viticulture: a planned and progressive improvement, which goes hand in hand with scientific research, aimed at reducing the impact of all business activities on the resources of the territory. All this without losing sight of the quality of the wines produced. In fact, this year's tasting has highlighted an extremely well-kept and excellent level of production. Read more
