Italian Whites
2021 Sartarelli Classico $15.99 / Case Price $12.80 | Castelli di Jesi / Marche / Italy 100% Verdicchio Nutty and orchard-fruited, Verdicchio from the coastal Jesi portion of the Marche is deceptively complex. Sartarelli is a world class producer of the Verdicchio varietal, which some consider Italy’s most important white grape. |
2022 DeForville Ca del Buc $19.99 / Case Price $16 | Barbaresco / Langhe / Italy 100% Chardonnay Created from 35–40-year-old vines planted in limestone soils, Deforville produces this single site Chardonnay using indigenous yeasts and only stainless steel for fermentation and refinement. |
2021 Baudana Dragon Bianco On Sale for $17.99 | Serralunga / Barolo / Italy Chardonnay, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Nascetta A perennial favorite, the latest Dragon release surprises with its richness of texture and present yet moderate acidity. Pleasantly punchy, this aromatic wine features a reverberating finishing note of crushed stone. |
2022 Casa Setaro Campanelle $25.99 / Case Price $20.80 | Napoli / Campania / Italy 100% Falanghina The Casa Setaro offers typical Falanghina aromas of honey and flowers. Light and bright, though only moderately acidic, this is a refreshing yet soft white. |
2021 Colombera Dethorna $27.99 / Case Price $22.40 | Tortonesi / Piedmont / Italy 100% Timorasso Known for the production of the local Tortona specialty, Timorasso, Colombera produces this single vineyard example which offers lush fruit and refreshing acid…kinda like Chenin Blanc |
2021 Elena Walch Gewurztraminer On Sale for $19.99 | Alto Adige / Italy 100% Gewurztraminer The “spicy wine of Tramin” likely did not originate in the town of Tramin, most recently it has been traced back to the northern French outpost of Jura. The Walchs have Gewurztraminer planted in just a few of their many vineyards, favoring higher elevation sites for this spicy white. |
