I’m in a serious Sicilian groove right now and there’s no use in denying it. While there are a healthy amount of outstanding/astounding producers that hale from that region, get used to seeing the name Alessandro di Camporeale. It is they that have caused this phase of my current obsession, though I do not blame them exclusively. Today we tasted the Sauvignon (Blanc) from the estate, and it’s well-advised if you can find it. A pale, light shade of green to the eye, the swirl hints at a richer texture than you may be accustomed to from a Sauvignon Blanc. Elder flower is the first to touch the nose which is gracefully well-rounded with notes of ‘well-grounded’ passion fruit and limestone that is more alluring than in-the-face. As it breathes, everything blossoms onto the palate with remarkable balance and (again) allure. The finish is remarkably clean and uplifting. While not cheap (in that $25 -$35 range) the ‘Kaid’ Sauvignon from Alessandro di Camporeale just absolutely brings it. — a month ago

Light in color but the nose is packed with lime, stone & melon ball. Finishes beautifully with just the right touch of salinity. — 2 months ago
