2023 Donnafugata Lighea, Italy, Sicily, Wine Review

This is made from the Zibibbo grape which is also known as Muscat of Alexandria.  It was very impressive and proved to be a group favorite (and mine) at a recent tasting.  Light golden in color, clear and bright.  The nose is beautiful with orange zest, and slight lychees.  Slightly oily texture (in a good way).  Medium bodied.  On the palate, this is dry with flavors of "tangy" oranges, slight tangerine and just a hint of herbal notes with underlying minerality.  It is both seductive and delicious.  Long finish.  This is delicious on its own and would work well with lighter foods.  A nice choice would be grilled Zuchini.  Drink over the next few years.
