Wine of the Day






Firriato Altavillia della Corte grillo 2005

This Sicilian is 100% Grillo, the island's most noble of white grapes. Lots of Frizzante on the front with lush, fleshy tropical fruit on the midpalate and an almost oily, southern rhone-like mouthfeel. A perfect winter white, pair it with pasta, fish, or roasted chicken. Under 16.00.
