In “Renaissance in Sicily,” Alison Napjus focuses on the boom in popularity of the island’s wines. Due in large part to a small group of high-quality and dedicated vintners, Sicily has become a region where “wine culture is reborn, fueled by passion, perseverance and distinctive bottlings.”
Included in Napjus’ list of recommended reds and whites from Sicily:
TENUTA DI FESSINA Erse Etna Bianco 2012 – 89 points
TENUTA DI FESSINA Il Musmeci Etna Bianco Superiore 2012 – 89 points
“Lacy and mouthwatering, with a streak of salinity underscoring the flavors of ripe apricot, toasted almond, ground ginger and lemon preserves. Finely knit and elegant, this delivers a lasting mineral-driven finish.”

TENUTA DI FESSINA Erse Etna Rosso 2012

TENUTA DI FESSINA Il Musmeci Etna Rosso 2009 – 90 points
“Spice, berry, earth, leather, tobacco and blue flower aromas lead the nose of this elegant wine. The ripe, round palate delivers fleshy black cherry and raspberry, accented by white pepper and cinnamon and framed by polished tannins.”
