Forgo the Merlot and pair those kebabs with a crisp Kalecik Karasi - The Hittites did it over 3000 years ago! - In Taormina, the waiters on the Corso Umberto will gladly serve you Pinot Grigio, but watch their reaction when you order a glass of local Carricante, grown just over their shoulder on the eastern face of Mount Etna.
