We’ll be pouring fun wines tonight to take the edge off! Come in after battling the crowds in the day. We’ve got some wines to share that’ll soothe your battle wounds or aid in celebration- whichever type of shopper you might be. Taste a bit of the good stuff, and bring some home to share with the folks.

A highlight of two of the wines we’ll be pouring:

Ferrari Brut

100% Chardonnay, Metodo Classico from Trentino, 100% delicious.

Ferrari was born over a century ago in 1902 through the efforts of Giulio Ferrari. After his studies in France, Ferrari returned to Trentino, Italy and planted Chardonnay, which no one had done before. Ferrari was convinced that through the combination of Trentino terroir, the innovative use of Chardonnay and the use of the traditional “metodo classico,” he could make world-class sparkling wines. By 1906, the awards started to roll in and Ferrari was well on its way to producing what would shortly become the most famous sparkling wine in all of Italy.

2014 Planeta Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG

“Deep red. Sweet, spicy aromas of red cherry, licorice, coffee, and marzipan, complicated by minerals and tobacco. At once plump and juicy, sweet and poised, conveying an impressive delicacy to its floral red fruit and stone flavors. The seductive floral tones repeat on the silky finish. A knockout Cerasuolo di Vittoria.” -Ian D’Agata, Dec 2015

We’d add in our own commentary here, but Ian nailed it. This review completely captures the pristine spirit of this wine, in all its impressive fruit tones, magically delicate and powerful at the same time. 60% Nero d’Avola, 40% Frappato.
