Monreale

Wine · PDO · 8 municipalities

Recognized since 2004 across eight Sicilian municipalities, including Camporeale and Corleone, the Monreale DOC presents a stark anomaly with zero currently verified producers. For those who bottle under this designation, strict limits set it apart from adjacent zones. While standard Monreale red, white, and rosato styles permit a maximum yield of 12.0 tons per hectare, the specialized Monreale Syrah enforces a stricter ceiling of 10.0 tons per hectare. Winemaking rules are equally uncompromising: any juice-to-wine extraction exceeding 75% triggers an immediate and total loss of the DOC designation, protecting the integrity of this rare classification.
