Monreale

Monreale, renowned for its Norman Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, also lends its name to a wine denomination that stretches across the Golden Shell at the gates of Palermo. Nero d'Avola, Catarratto, and international grape varieties coexist in a region historically more famous for citrus fruits than wine, but which has seen qualitative growth in recent years. The local wineries offer tastings that can easily be paired with a cultural visit to Palermo. Book your tasting at the same price as the winery.
