WINE OF THE WEEK:
If you like Italian wine, this one’s for you.
If you have limited experience with Italian wine, then this one’s a great way to start!
Our WOW is the 2012 Piccini Sasso al Poggio Toscana, a blend of Sangiovese,
Cabernet, and Merlot.
Cherry and wild blackberry fruit aromas combine with red floral and loamy earth
notes. On the palate it shows great balance and terrific structure, with flavors
that follow the nose and linger on the long finish.
This is one of those blessedly wonderful wines that simply over-deliver for the price.
Speaking of which, our regular price on this wine is 14.97, which is already the
best price we’ve seen online by quite a bit. But this week only, we’re giving you
an introductory price of just 12.97/bottle.
Pairing this beauty with classic Italian dishes will make it even better.
Come pick some up!
