Wine Selections April 2012
"Macrina"
Verdicchio 2009
Garofoli
Marche, Italy
An
exceptionally
fine Verdicchio, bright & crisp, yet rich. Greater depth
& complexity than most Verdicchios. The Garofoli family is
now in its 3rd generation of producing outstanding wines. Perfect
for seafood!
Barbera d'Alba 2010
Franco Serra
Piedmont, Italy
Big, earthy dark berry
aromas and flavors with hints of strawberry and mocha. A gem
from northwestern Italy.
A fine Barbera,
especially for the price. A very food friendly
wine. Great match for dishes
made with tomato sauce (pasta and
pizza). Excellent with sausages, beef, lamb, venison and
cheeses. Stuffed mushrooms.
