BlanQ advertises itself as the perfect aperitivo, or cocktail wine, and this billing is right on the money. The bouquet is redolent of summer flowers, melon and peach and there’s a nice creaminess here, provoked in part by the Sicilian sunshine.——M.L.(11/1/2011)—— 87

This Sicilian blend of white grapes (with a large component of Sauvignon Blanc) shows pretty aromas of white flowers and exotic fruit. Mature melon and pear aromas give the wine a warm-climate identity as does its silky structure. ——M.L.(3/1/2011)—— 87
