Tenuta Regaleali, Sicilia DOC (Italy) Catarratto 2020

 Tasca d’Almerita family owns Tenuta Regaleali, a great and reliable name for Sicilian wine.  They have transformed Catarratto, another autochthonous grape, into a fleshy and cutting wine.  (Soon Catarratto will be called Lucido, after one of its clones, for marketing reasons because the Sicilians believe it is easier for foreigners — mainland Italians included — to pronounce.)  Regardless of how is labeled, Tenuta Regaleali’s 2020 is delightful.  Filled with delicate peach-like flavors, it not really a fruity wine because of a healthy dose of minerality and wonderful acidity, which keeps it bright and lively.  This is another Sicilian wine that provides more enjoyment than the price suggests.
