| Lamùri 2007 Igt Tasca d' Almerita |
Lamùri: or we could say, reasons of the heart. The history of Tasca d’Almerita is the history
of a family, and, as such, it tells of people, passions and projects, such as that of growing Nero
d’Avola, which long ago sunk its roots in the hills of Regaleali.
The composition of the soil and an unique micro-climate are the very substance of this
terrain, passed on to the ancient vines, combining freshness and elegance with the natural
riches of Sicilian wines. |
