Tasca d'Almerita
The history of Tasca d'Almerita goes back
to 1830 when brothers Don Lucio and Don Carmelo Mastrogiovanni
bought 1200 hectares of land in the Sclafani countryside between
Palermo and Enna. Today count and countess Tasca run the estate
that has been promoting top-end Sicilian wines for 60 years.
Notwithstanding the highly innovative approach of viticulture and
winemaking, tradition is never far away with 460 hectares of
vineyard mainly planted with indigenous varieties such as Nero
d'Avola, Nerello Mascalese, Inzolia, Cataratto and Grecanico. Grown
at an altitude between 500m to 750m, cool night temperatures
produce grapes with remarkable acidity and minerality given the
estate's southern Mediterranean location. The impressive Nero
d'Avola-based Rosso del Conte presides an extensive range of wines
that also includes the Regaleali Bianco and Regaleali Nero d'Avola,
both awarded the Oscar Qualita/Prezzo by Gambero Rosso.
