Tasca D'Almerita Tenuta Regaleali Catarratto Antisa 2019
Sicily, ItalyWith a somewhat dark gold hue, this initially showed a more developed character of bruised apple and nuts on the nose rather than youthful fruit or floral notes that you would expect from catarratto. On the palate, it proves to be a more serious wine than its first impression. Crisp acidity backed by a core of ripe citrus suggests it’s a structurally well framed wine. The fairly long finish with lingering saline almond notes is another charm of the wine. Perhaps it would have been a much more impressive wine if tasted a couple of years earlier, when the fruit was still vibrant.Tasted: 17 September 2022Tasted by: Prices:BC | $35.99 | 750ml | select private retailers |
