Tenuta Tascante
Buonora Etna Bianco Carricante
Very close to a good Chablis. A bit less citrusy maybe. Delicious.

May 23rd, 2024Strange aromas & confusing expressions when first opened (dusty library books?), but this wine settled down nicely into a light, refreshing read. Unsweetened cranberry and soft minerality paired with a kiss of baking spices (mostly clove) & a hint of black pepper on the pallet. Really liked it, but it was unexpected.
