Cygnus Tenuta Regaleali Sicilia DOC 2017

Tasca d'Almerita is a Sicilian winery that can boast a long presence in the world of viticulture. The winery's history, rich in traditions, origins and love for its land, began in 1830 with the purchase of the Regaleali estate, from the Arabic "Rahl Alì", the house of Alì, 1,200 hectares in the countryside of Sclafani Bagni, in the centre of Sicily. Today Tasca d'Almerita, the symbol of Sicily's wine-making excellence, cultivates vines on five different estates, all in Sicily - Regaleali, Capofaro, Tascante, Whitaker and Sallier de La Tour - each with its own characteristics. The company produces several high quality wines: four white wines (Regaleali, Leone d'Almerita, Nozze d'Oro and Chardonnay), six red wines (Regaleali Nero d'Avola, Lamùri, Cygnus, Camastra, Rosso del Conte, Cabernet Sauvignon), one rosé (Regaleali Le Rose), one classic method sparkling wine (Almerita) and one sweet wine (Diamante d'Almerita). The Tasca d'Almerita family has focused not only on producing quality wines, but also on respecting the environment to pass on a healthy territory to future generations. It has invested heavily in technological innovation and cultivation techniques.
