Insolia (sometimes spelled Inzolia) is and Italian white grape variety from Tuscany, where it is known as Ansonica, or Sicily. Insolia was mostly used as a blending component in Marsala wines, but is now grown to produce the single variety white wine. Insolia wines will have relatively high tannin structure when compared to other white wines. Insolia gives citrus and herbal tones as well as provide temperate aroma and weight with slightly nutty notes. Insolia wines are effortless, clean, and dry with good quality.
