Here’s a creamy, modern Chardonnay with a terrific balance between fruit and oak that translates into peach, vanilla essence and mature melon. There’s a nice roundness to the wine and its chewy texture is reinforced by ripe fruit flavors.

Principe di Corleone 2005 Pollara Cabernet Sauvignon (Sicilia)
- Online Exclusive
There’s a delicate, mineral-like note to this Cabernet Sauvignon that gives the wine a neat, compact feel in the mouth. Aromas are well measured and elegant and you’ll see that the wine is much more expressive on the finish where it exhibits bursting berry flavors.

Principe di Corleone 2004 Inzolia (Sicilia)

A round, soft and easy white with stone fruit aromatics and crisp mineral tones that add dimension to the nose. This is an easy-to-drink wine and a classic pairing partner to non-fussy dishes like grilled chicken breast or roasted vegetables.

Here’s a bright Nero d’Avola made in a subtle but traditional style with aromas of almond paste, cherry liqueur and light tea leaf. The wine’s density is medium and lean but fresh crispness appears on the close: Drink it with roast chicken or pork.
