Camuto writes about Alberto Tasca who reflects, “a generation of young Sicilians who came of age around the time of the Falcone and Borsellino as- sassinations and vowed not to leave.” Tasca is the CEO of a company with vast hold- ings of productive land. To his delight Camuto is taken by helicopter to visit Tasca’s vineyards. Camuto’s discovery of women managing wine- making facilities I found somewhat surprising as well as fascinating. Read this: “Francesca, a mother of two infant daughters who is mar- ried to a dentist, runs and oversees the family’s wine operations.” Camuto says he is not a wine expert. This extraordi- nary book proves he is a humble connoisseur. I found this book to be knowledge- able and interesting and to once again increase my desire to visit Sicily and mingle with what I consider the most remarkable people I have ever met. The fascinating photos of the Sicilian wine-makers and their land adds color and depth to this remarkable book. Read it and you will see what I mean.
