Going back

It is fun to go back and try different vintages of wine that I liked. Will it still be good or has something changed.

From one of my favourite producer Donnafugata in Sicily comes the wine Anthila. It is a white wine of vintage 2016, Cataratto is the main grape but is complimented by various other grapes. The taste is of pear and peaches with  crispy fresh taste. As good as I remembered it. Definitely a wine for the Swedish summer.

Then we move on to producer Piersanti and the wine Zecci which is a white wine from Marche in Italy. It is made of 100% Verdicchio grapes and is from the DOC Verdicchio Dei Castelli Jesi. The vintage is of 2015. This is a full bodied wine. Pears and apples in the taste. A very good food wine.

Very good to see that both producers has good quality over the years.

When in Siciliy drink Sicilian wine

During my recent Sicilian trip I had the chance to sample some Sicilian wine. In Trapani I had the chance to sample some wine from my favourite Sicilian producer Donnafugata. The wine in this case were the white wine Anthilia from 2013. This wine has the main grape of Catarratto and is complemented by other grapes. The smell is very fresh. The taste is very fresh with pear notes and some grapefruit. It is a delight to drink and I wish I could find bottles of it in Sweden.
