WTN: D'Istinto Catarratto-Chardonnay 2005

IGT Sicilia.
From Calatrasi.

Moderate weight, somewhat thick and full in the mouth, nectarine, peach, fairly plush and smooth, oak. Fresh and refreshing.

The wine improved quite a bit as it warmed, gaining texture and body, and showed fairly poorly (crisp with little flavour) cold out of the fridge. Next time I will let the bottle sit on the counter for 15 to 20 minutes before opening.

Purchased at $14.95 (Canadian).
