The La Rocca vineyard is located on the hill of Mount Rocchetta, close to the medieval Scaliger castle of Soave. La Rocca enjoys a particular microclimate, which makes it possible to obtain a wine with a unique and unreproducible bouquet and gustatory notes, typical of a pedigree wine. Innovative, since its debut in 1978, it has marked a deep groove in the territory, becoming an undisputed symbol of quality and tradition.

Fresh as the sea breeze, the Inzolia from the young vineyards of Belicello is versatile, pleasant, with a dynamic and satisfying sip. Since its brilliant straw color, the glass reflects the intense light of the Sicilian mornings; the bouquet opens delicately on hints of citrus and almond blossom, and then evolves into notes of white peach and aromatic herbs. Its intense sapidity on the palate is made harmonious by a soft and flowing texture and by an acidity that is never too intrusive.

The old vineyards of Inzolia planted by my father more than fifty years ago are an extraordinary legacy on which to build the future of viticulture in Belicello. The original clones, perfectly adapted to the particular conditions of the environment to which they belong, exuberantly express the personality and wine culture of the Menfi area. The soil, mainly calcareous and pebbly, gives the wine an intense and at the same time delicate sapidity, great depth and aromatic breadth.

In Sicily, "coast" is the side of the hills that gently slope down to the sea, covered by vineyards as far as the eye can see that bask in the sun, unkempt by the fresh Mediterranean breezes. These are the places of Grillo, a fascinating native variety that interprets the beauty of the Menfi terroir with great personality. Son of generous lands, Coste al Vento gives us a full and ripe fruit that blends with the brackish notes brought by the sea winds, in a harmonious crescendo made original by maceration on the skins and fermentation with indigenous yeasts.

Arèmi, one of the four suits with which the gambling cards are painted, as well as the community cards. The coin suit, which has the color of gold and like gold is precious in the game of broom and seven and a half. Catarratto is liquid gold, culuri d'arèmi: intense and brilliant gold that lights up from the sun and the sea of Sicily, full of the millenary history that skilled hands have handed down to us, from generation to generation, from the Greek motherland to the fertile countryside of Memphis. Arèmi is love for the land, respect for knowledge, conscious acceptance of a heritage to be preserved.

By hand, to recover the value of manual work, the care and joy in doing it. By hand, to underline the absolute craftsmanship of the production of a wine made without the aid of machinery, without additives or synthetic oenological products, in which the human component is at least as important as the natural one. Only grapes and hands: in a world where machines and homologation increasingly replace man and his creativity, hands are, perhaps, the thing to which we must return.

The best Italian white wines

Italy is home to some of the finest white wines. In the Clickwine section of our online wine shop dedicated to the finest Italian white wines, you'll find bottles of excellent white wine carefully selected by our sommeliers.

The designations used in our country to classify wines are DOCG, DOC, and IGT. Sometimes you'll also find designations like DOP and IGP: these acronyms have similar meanings to the previous ones but are used by wineries that primarily sell their wines outside of Italy.

The production of white wine

White wines are produced from both light and dark grapes, but vinified as a white wine: that is, during maceration there is no contact between the must and the pomace, so that the skin – exactly the opposite of what happens with red wines – does not release substances and color.

Its myriad nuances vary according to the characteristics of the grape variety, the aging method and the vine growing area.

In white winemaking, once the grapes have been harvested, they are transported to the cellar, destemmed, and pressed, and the must is separated without any maceration or with a brief maceration. Sometimes, however, the grapes are pressed and then macerated with the skins at a low temperature for a varying length of time. This produces richer, smoother wines.

This phase is followed by the clarification of the white wine produced, which can be done by letting the must rest, by cooling, centrifugation or filtration.

Fermentation begins either by adding selected yeast to the must or spontaneously, using the indigenous yeasts present in the grapes. To preserve the aromas, finesse, and freshness of white wines, fermentation is carried out at lower temperatures than red winemaking, generally around 18°C.

To obtain a fresh and lively wine, best drunk young, malolactic fermentation is avoided by bottling early, after filtration and stabilization. More complex wines, aged or fermented in wood, are bottled only after several months in barrel.

How to taste white wine

First, you need to decide whether to uncork the bottle right away or let your white wine age. If you want to immediately succumb to its charm, its aromas of aromatic herbs, flint, or its notes of exotic fruit, then serve your white wine at the right temperature: 6-8°C for a young white and 8-10°C for a softer, more structured wine.

How to pair white wine

Dry white wines will surprise you at the table, too, and not just with their straw-yellow color. As an aperitif, and especially with a fish dish, white wine is definitely a must, but it's not easy to know which of the many labels will be best suited to the occasion.

We recommend pairing white wine with cheeses, whether low-fat, fresh, or rich in milk, such as flavorful buffalo mozzarella, or with soft, bloomy-rind cheeses. They're also perfect with white meats, such as classic scallops, but beyond tradition, white wine also pairs perfectly with meat and risotto dishes, as well as truffles. Visit our online wine shop Clickwine for expert advice on purchasing the best white wine at the best price to pair with your favorite dishes.

White wines: longevity and conservation

How long can I keep white wine in the cellar? Do white wines improve as they age like red wines? These are the questions a wine consumer asks when talking about white wine.

In general, white wines have a much shorter shelf life than red wines, for two reasons: tannins and aging. Tannins are antioxidants present in the wine's skins that aren't present in white wines; as for aging, however, most white wines age in stainless steel for just a few months; even red wines, if they age briefly in stainless steel and undergo rapid maceration, don't last for many years. Let's say a classic white wine aged in stainless steel lasts a maximum of 2 to 3 years. If it undergoes maceration or ages in wood, it can last up to 20 years and improve year after year.


How many types of white wines are there?

There is no exact number of types of white wine, as there are several different white grape varieties that can be used to make white wines. Some of the most common white grape varieties used to make white wines are Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Pinot Grigio, and Moscato. There are also other less common varieties such as Gewürztraminer, Semillon, and Viognier. Each of these varieties can be used to produce white wines with unique and different characteristics, so there are many different types of white wines available.

How to recognize a good white wine?

How to understand if a white wine is good?

As mentioned above, one of the easiest ways to determine if a white wine is good is to taste it and evaluate its flavor and aroma.

It's also important to keep in mind that the quality of a white wine can be influenced by several factors, such as the vintage, the grape variety, and the production area.

Why is it called white wine?

White wine is so called because it is made using white grapes. Most white grapes have transparent or lightly colored skins, so the wine made from these grapes has a light, transparent color. Sometimes the color of white wine can be influenced by the type of grape used, the winemaking process, and the addition of other ingredients, but generally, white wine has a light, transparent color.

How to replace white wine?

If you want to replace white wine in a recipe, there are several ingredients you can use. One of the most common options is to use chicken or vegetable broth instead of white wine. Other options include using white vinegar or apple juice diluted with water. Additionally, in some cases, you can omit the white wine entirely and use other ingredients to achieve the desired flavor in the recipe.
