Score 93/100 · Drink 2024-2032, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, Apr 2025

The Tenuta Regaleali Tasca d'Almerita 2022 Sicilia Chardonnay Vigna San Francesco is a fleshed-out and creamy white wine with almond paste, poached apple and lemon mouse. It offers good acidity and a hint of dried mint over a medium-plus mouthfeel. The Vigneto San Francesco was planted in 1985 and enjoys southeast exposures. This wine is oak-fermented (Allier and Tronçais) and aged in oak barrel (with 70% new oak and 30% second-use barrel) for eight months. This is a 36,000-bottle release.

The 2022 Chardonnay Vigna San Francesco is a refined and youthfully poised rendition. Sweet oak melds with honeyed florals, almond paste and yellow apple on the nose. The palate is soothingly round and supple, with ripe orchard fruits underscored by tactile mineral tones as a minty herbal resonance evolves toward the close. Structured yet fresh, it tapers off with medium length and nuances of apricot that linger.
