We love wines from all over Europe, but sometimes, Italy just steals the show...🇮🇹
Heres just a few of our current favorites!
1. Az. Ag. Cantine Tintero Elvio | 'Tintero Bianco,' Asti, Italy NV
A delightfully unique Piemontese blend. Dry & fruity with notes of pear, lemon & crisp minerality, all held together with a gentle effervescence. $15
