Inzolia
Inzolia – also known as Insolia in Sicily – is one of the island's oldest white grape varieties and impresses not with bold aromas, but with its elegant balance. In the glass, it displays a straw-yellow color, and on the palate it is fresh and light, with a delicate fruitiness and pleasant spiciness. This understated harmony makes it the ideal companion for Mediterranean cuisine and warm summer evenings.
Its home is Sicily , where it is primarily cultivated in the west of the island; in Tuscany, it is known as Ansonica. At Vinoscout, you'll find four Sicilian Inzolia wines priced between €6.80 and €10.70 – uncomplicated, characterful white wines that demonstrate the joy an old grape variety can bring.

Inzolia – the quiet character of Sicily
Inzolia is not a variety that stands out with loudness. What it brings to your glass is rather the opposite: a light, dry white wine with fine fruit, pleasant freshness, and a body that feels neither too light nor too heavy. If you like wines that you can simply drink – without much thought, but with real enjoyment – you are in the right place here.
A Sicilian through and through
Inzolia is firmly rooted in Sicily. The variety has felt at home on the sun-drenched island for centuries and produces wines there that reflect the Mediterranean climate: accessible, uncomplicated, with a natural warmth on the finish. It is no wonder that it is among the most popular white grape varieties in Sicily.
