Here’s a well-priced Chardonnay from Sicily with a light and luminous feel followed by fresh aromas of citrus, stone fruit and white mineral. Pair this crisp white wine with seafood or salads. ——M.L.(7/1/2010)—— 87

Thick and dense, this modern Chardonnay delivers a surprisingly soft and feminine side that comes across in the form of dried herbs, hay, pretty nuances of yellow rose and honeysuckle. The wine shows its masculine side in the mouth, however, where it tastes thick and succulent.——M.L.(11/1/2008)—— 86
