With the addition of 15% Graciano, the wine is aged in neutral French puncheons for 18 months. The wine is slick, exuding notes of white-peppered black raspberry that lights up the palate. Earthy, with zesty notes of cinnamon and rhubarb. It finishes with a juicy wash of mocha and mulberry.

Equal parts Insolia, Grillo, and Zibibbo (aka Muscat of Alexandria) compose this white wine from Tenuta Ficuzza, whose name translates to “the encounter of sea and mountain.” It exudes aromas of deliriously perfumed tangerine and apple, and on the palate, nutty notes meld with wildflower, crème brûlée, lemon cake batter, and shortbread. A salty sea breeze offers an ethereal finish.

Jalé is named for the chalky white soils in the vineyards on the winery’s Ficuzza estate, which are surrounded by woods on hills at 2,700 feet above sea level. Leesy, buttery notes intertwine with ample acidity to satisfy the palate. Marzipan and salted pear are balanced by a creamy base of vanilla.
Earthy and plummy, with notes of quince and orange peel. Basil-kissed tomato leaf and a pinch of white pepper and tobacco leaf. The wine is spiced with chili pepper, with medium acidity and ample tannin structure.
A blend of 70% Insolia and 30% Chardonnay with a low ABV of 12.5%, this wine is named for the woods near the vineyard where these grapes grow and features a Vinolok glass stopper.
