Sicilian powerhouse Planeta has made this blend of Grecanico, Moscato Giallo and Grillo for The Wine Society's celebratory series, which showcases the Italian island's ability to deliver lively, acid-driven wines that marrie fruit forwardness and elegant salinity. This is a superb everyday drinker, easily paired with a variety of dishes. Lemon zest and orange blossom lead the nose, followed on the palate by wild fennel, melon and preserved lemon. Simple and delicious.
