Uko Estate Malbec 2024
$10.99
The Uko Estate malbec is fairly new to our line-up. It’s rare to find a malbec at this price point that also delivers a quality wine. Old world in style, it offers black berry, earthy spice and pleasantly round tannin.
Scrimaglio Piemonte Rosso 2022
$19.99
There are three primary grapes found in the Piemonte region of northern Italy: nebbiolo, sangiovese, and barbera. Typically these are produced as single varietals, but this rosso as a blend of all three. It’s round and savory with juicy red berry. A perfect pasta pairing!
Spritzatto
$13.99
The #1 ready to drink Italian spritz in the USA. "Spritzatto Originale" is an aperitivo prepared with sparkling wine, Italian spirits and aromas, and sparkling water. Deep ruby orange in color. On the nose it has scents of citrus fruits and herbs with tropical notes. On the palate it is both sweet & bitter, with fresh taste and notes of orange and grapefruit. Ideal as an aperitif. Delicious to drink cold or pour over ice. Screw cap.

Wines From Sardinia & Italy
Friday, September 25th
6pm-8pm
We Welcome
Harold From PortoVino
For almost two decades, PortoVino have been traveling Italy’s backroads to create a portfolio of compelling wines that are exciting, express unique areas, and represent iconic traditional growers. None of the family wineries use synthetic chemicals in their vineyards and follow a minimal intervention approach in the cellar. Most are certified organic or biodynamic. We’re thrilled to have this opportunity to share these wines with you.
Cardedu Praja Monica 2022
$21.99
Sergio Loi is a 4th generation traditional Sardinian producer, whose family winery from the early 1900s has practiced no chemical farming and minimum intervention in the cellar. The Cardedu [car-DAY-do] vineyards are located on the island’s sparsely populated southeast coast. Monica is a grape varietal found exclusively on the island of Sardinia, and despite its relatively unknown status, it’s one of the island's most common varieties, making wines designed for everyday drinking. It’s a light bodied wine with dark fruit, herbal notes, a spicy-underbrush and gentle tannin. Throw a slight chill on it, and you’ll have a wine that will be hard to stop at just one glass.
Mortellito Niuru Frappato 2024
$28.99
Mortellito [MORT-el-li-to] is in Val di Noto, in the corner of Sicily that lies at the same latitudes as North Africa’s arid desert climate. Its vineyards are a few kilometers from the coast, with grooves of ancient olive and almond trees breaking the wind off the sea. Abandoned and still working fishing ports dot the landscape. Owner Dario Serrentino has always enjoyed the contrasts of this coastal growing area, which he calls ‘a desert next to the beach. Dario has always worked on the family farm in one form or another (his heirloom almonds were actually his first love). He changed careers from social worker and part-time farmer to full-time vignaiolo (winegrower, or vineyard owner who manages the entire process from tending vines to making and selling wine) with his first bottling in 2014, working with only native grapes. His Calaniuru bottling is composed of frappato with a dash of nero d’Avola. It’s a light and fresh delight, with notes of red fruit. Try with a plate of pasta al pesto rosso (sun-dried tomatoes, toasted almonds, olive oil, garlic, and salt).
Fuso, Terre Siciliane Dario Rosso 2022
$17.99
FUSO is a PortoVino project in the spirit of what people from Europe still do today: once a year they visit their favorite local producer to fill up large glass demijohns that they later siphon off into smaller bottles at home. Every year PortoVino collaborates with their favorite organic farmers to siphon off and bottle only the most delicious and characterful wines from classic and off-the-radar growing areas. Made from 90% nero d'Avola 10% grillo, the Dario Rosso is light with deep notes of black cherry, plum black tea, and a hint of tannin.
