Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

So light and refreshing! Aromas of white flowers, lemon-lime, and a hint of apricot. Medium bodied, with lots of vibrant citrus on the palate, and a crisp, clean finish. Enjoy with shrimp and scallop dishes.
Cusumano 2018 is produced from the Insolia wine grape from Sicily. Great value under $15. Look for citrus, white florals and spicy flavours on this medium-plus-bodied white. Pair with vegetable crudité and creamy cheeses. - Community Wine Reviews
