How to serve it
Tasting notes
Pale straw yellow. The nose is fresh and openly aromatic, carrying the scent the high hills of Regaleali give these native grapes: white flowers, green apple and a citrus edge. The palate is light, clean and taut, with brisk acidity and a dry, faintly saline finish.
About this wine
Tasca d'Almerita is a historic Sicilian family that has owned the Regaleali estate in central Sicily since 1830. Its vineyards are spread over six hills between 450 and 850 metres, high enough that nights stay cold even at the height of a Sicilian summer.
Regaleali Bianco blends the island's native varieties with a small share of Chardonnay from the estate's highest plots. Fermentation lasts around fifteen days in stainless steel at 14-16 °C, malolactic fermentation is avoided to keep the acidity intact, and the wine then rests three months in steel before bottling.
