"Like someone speaking softly to get your undivided attention, Regaleali whispers delectable mineral, floral and citrus aromas to draw you into a glass of effusive apple, pear and lemon zest flavors cheered on by bright and lively acidity. The Tasca d'Almerita estate is in Sicily, the island perched at the toe of the Italian boot, where they grow the three indigenous grape varieties used in this wine. It was made to showcase the fruit, so enjoy it while it's young with a tuna salad."
