The Wines!!
Marramiero Sessanta Pecorino $16.99
The “pecorino” preserves the colour of blond wheat, golden with bright reflections. Its fragrance is distinctive and based on persuasive essences of fruits even tropical, such as mango, melon, grapefruit and particular spicy nuances. Full and harmonious taste of long persistence.
Suggested to go with delicate appetizers, first courses with white sauce even of fish; to be served at the temperature of 10/12°. Alcohol content 13%.
Ippolito Res Dei Ciro Greco Bianco $16.99
This expression of Greco from Calabria offers a compact, lightweight feel with easy aromas of stone fruit and white mineral. It’s a fresh, clean and simple wine.

Fontezoppa Cato Marche Rosso $16.99
The blend balances the distinctive black-cherry and wild-berry flavors of Sangiovese against the structure and power of Cabernet Sauvignon. Cabernet Franc also occasionally appears in the blend, adding depth and spicy elegance. Acid and tannins are seldom lacking in these wines and, with appropriate barrel maturation, they can age well for many years.
Ippolito I Mori $19.99
This well-concentrated blend of Bordeaux and Calabrian grapes offers thick aromas of ripe fruit, prunes, raisins and smoked bacon. It shows signs of ripening under the strong southern Italian sunshine and offers polished tannins and a smooth texture.

Sardus Pater Cannonau "Foras" $20.99
With an intense ruby red color, this wine smells of ripe red fruit, black peppercorn and sweet spices. The taste has a strong body and a good balance, light tannins and a pleasant sweet and savory note. Fairly long after aroma. Best with baked kid.
