Wine Review: A refreshing and easy drinking white from Sicilia, Italy, this wine is a medium straw color, and delivers aromas of passion fruit, dried herbs, honeydew melon, white peach, and gardenia florals. It is delicate, crisp, and dry on the palate, with medium body, medium-plus acidity, and a pleasant texture. There are flavors of saline, grapefruit, thyme, Bartlett pear and a hint of almond. Serve chilled with pasta carbonara with peas. - Mark
Winemaker Notes: Color: Deep straw yellow.
Bouquet: An aroma distinctly tropical with notes of mango and papaya, that blends with inklings of jasmine and white flowers.
Flavor: Balanced and harmonious with a delicate acidity.
Pairing: Goes well with seafood, first course pasta dishes with vegetables, white meats, and baked fish.
