Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: Made from the Grecanico grape; a Sicilian specialty. Simply astounding value here. Medium gold in the glass, this ebullient wine opens with pretty honeysuckle, fresh apricot, melon and candied citrus. Dry, medium bodied and vibrant on the palate, with nervy acidity. Finishes nice and clean, with floral accents. A fun wine that will make a lovely summer sipper. My note: And now for something completely different: love it! Aromas of wild forest flowers, orange zest and dried apricot. This is so intriguing: I’m still trying to figure it out. In the meantime, though, pour me another glass, will you? Food matches: pita bread and lemon-herb hummus.
