Producer

The large Regaleali estate, high in the central Sicilian hills, has been in the hands of the noble Tasca family since 1830. Ever since, the property has been run according to the best principles of the agricultural aristocracy: with one eye firmly on quality, and the other on experimentation.

Tasca’s large range is the product of the family’s most successful innovations, including short pruning for lower yields, the championing of local Inzolia and Nero d’Avola vines, the introduction of French varieties, and the use of barrique and temperature control. Even now, forty grape varieties from all over Europe are planted just for experimental purposes, with the possibility of making the grade in the future. However, there is already plenty on offer in this singularly accomplished range of Sicilian wines.

This wine is produced from selected Nero d’Avola vineyards in the heart of the island, using restricted yields for extra concentration.

The wine underwent a traditional fermentation in stainless steel tanks at 26-28oC, with ten days’ maceration. The wine was aged for six months, fifty percent in stainless steel tanks, the remainder in Slavonian oak barrels of thirty and sixty hectolitres.

Food Pairings

This versatile Nero d’Avola pairs beautifully with a wide array of dishes. Its robust structure makes it an excellent match for grilled lamb chops, beef ragù, or roasted duck. It also complements pasta with rich tomato-based sauces, eggplant parmigiana, or wild mushroom risotto. For cheese lovers, pair it with aged Pecorino or Caciocavallo to enhance its depth. Its bold profile and harmonious balance make it a great choice for both everyday meals and festive occasions.

Region

The Sicily DOC region, the largest wine-producing area in Italy, is known for its diverse terroir and rich history. With a combination of volcanic soils, coastal breezes and abundant sunshine, Sicily offers ideal conditions for cultivating Nero d’Avola. The island’s unique microclimates and centuries-old traditions have made it a leader in producing wines that are both bold and elegant. Wines from Sicily DOC, such as the Tasca Regaleali Nero d’Avola, are celebrated for their ability to capture the island’s vibrant spirit and complexity.
