Cantine Colosi is based in the Messina area at the northern tip of Sicily. The 2016 Bianco shows simple and grassy notes of field flowers and dried hay. You also get subtle tones of citrus and honeydew melon. Hey, if you were going to buy a Pinot Grigio to go with your summer salad on Sundays by the pool, try this Sicilian white instead. The blend is Cataratto, Inzolia and Grillo.

Colosi's 2010 Bianco is a gorgeous, entry-level white. A blend of predominantly Inzolia with 10% Catarratto, the Bianco reveals beautifully articulated fruit and a crisp, clean finish. It is a steal for the money. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2013. Importer: Vias Imports, New York, NY; tel. (212) 629-0200

The 2009 Colosi Bianco (Inzolia, Cataratto) is a tasty, floral white with generous fruit, excellent length and a round, engaging personality. It is a steal for the money. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2012. Colosi is an excellent source for fabulous values from Sicily. Year after year these are some of the most delicious wines I run across under $20 a bottle.Importer: Vias Imports, New York, NY; tel. (212) 629-0200
