91 Points James Suckling | Aromas of ripe apricots, orange blossom, honeysuckle and citrus peel. Medium-bodied, clean and vivid with round, sleek texture. Flavorful finish. (2022).
90 Points Wine Enthusiast | A primarily savory nose of rubber, stone, pepper and oregano, draws balance from undertones of daffodils and citrus. That lemony current becomes a flood on the palate, but an enduring stony herbaceousness provides structure, before a tart, salty finish ties everything together. (2022).
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.
