    Somm Note

    Winemaker Notes

    Deepish straw yellow in color, it displays rich floral and fruity notes, with a faint hint of almonds. These sensations are echoed on the palate, along with an acidity that balances out the wine's alcoholic warmth.

    Inzolia, a local varietal, and Chardonnay come together in a wine that is the perfect match for fish dishes and delicate meats.

    Feudo Zirtari, Italy
    Just as a sculptor fashions a block of stone, the Sicilian sun and land (natures sculptor) shape the soil. Investing it with the profound complexity that will yield wines of excellent quality and personality.

    The promotion of native grapes and the reinterpretation of international varieties grown in Sicily’s natural environment form the basis for the Feudo Zirtari range, which testifies to the success of this union. Traditional winemaking infused with new technology highlights and enhances both international and native varietals in Sicily. The vineyard management grape selection is carried out with dedicated precision.

    At the end of the winemaking process, there emerge all the exciting sensations proffered by Feudo Zirtari wines. The two Feudo Zirtari wines are distinctive blends of native varieties with an international style. Both are exceptionally food-friendly and equally impressive for their approachability and sheer appeal.

    Inzolia is a pale-skinned variety responsible for some of Sicily’s best white wines, whether on its own or blended with other varieties—namely the indigenous Grillo or Cataratto. Inzolia guises as Ansonica Bianca is Tuscany’s coastal Maremma region, competing with Vermentino for popularity. Somm Secret—Inzolia along with Grillo, are the grapes responsible for high quality Marsala.

    A mountainous northern Italian region heavily influenced by German culture, Trentino-Alto Adige is actually made up of two separate but similar regions: Alto Adige and Trentino.

    Trentino, the southern half, is primarily Italian-speaking and largely responsible for the production of non-native, international grapes. There is a significant quantity of Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio and Merlot produced. But Trentino's native and most unique red variety, Teroldego, while still rare, is gaining popularity. It produces a deeply colored red wine rich in wild blackberry, herb, coffee and cocoa.

    The rugged terrain of German-speaking Alto Adige (also referred to as Südtirol) focuses on small-scale viticulture, with great value placed on local varieties—though international varieties have been widely planted since the 1800s. Sheltered by the Alps from harsh northerly winds, many of the best vineyards are at extreme altitude but on steep slopes to increase sunlight exposure.

    Dominant red varieties include the bold, herbaceous Lagrein and delicate, strawberry-kissed, Schiava, in addition to some Pinot Nero.

    The primary white grapes are Pinot grigio, Gewürztraminer, Chardonnay and Pinot blanc, as well as smaller plantings of Sauvignon blanc, Müller Thurgau. These tend to be bright and refreshing with crisp acidity and just the right amount of texture. Some of the highest quality Pinot grigio in Italy is made here.
