Vintage 2020 Rich smell, beautiful with marsepan, vanilla, smoke. Mild character with bitters in aftertaste. Tre Bicchieri

Sherry-like nose. Palate is the same. Interesting!

Beautiful Chenin blanc from Sicilia. Little bit of French oak makes this wine in a perfect balance. Drink it not too cold and it goes perfect with the most starters, fish dishes and white meat.

The waiter almost tried to discourage me from ordering this one. The Sicilian Chenin shines beautifully. There's apparently oak here, but I honestly didn't pick it up.

Very interesting white.
Orange rind and butter on the nose. Citrus comes to the forefront on the palette. Very clean and dry.
