FEATURED WINES
2007 LE POESIE VENETO PINOT GRIGIO OUR PRICE $13.99
Wine made from grapes from the Veneto hills. Straw yellow in appearance. This generous, well balanced 100% Pinot Grigio is sourced from the sun blessed hills of the Verona region. Alcohol is 11.5% and stored in stainless steel cooperage. Excellent as an aperitif, this wine is a perfect compliment to seafood dishes, ham and especially rock melon.
2007 LE POESIE SOAVE CLASSICO OUR PRICE $14.99
Wine made from grapes grown in the vineyards of the classic D.O.C production area. 100% Garganega grapes grown between the medieval town of Soave and Monteforte di Alpone. Alcohol 12.5%. The Soave Denominazioni di Origine Controllata combines perfectly with lean appetizers, light soups and seafood dishes, but is at its best as an aperitif.
2006 LE POESIE VALPOLICELLA OUR PRICE $14.99
Wine made from grapes grown in the vineyards of the classic D.O.C production area. With aging, its color turns from ruby red to garnet. This classic blend of 70% Corvina and 30% Rondinella grapes are aged in oak for twelve months. Alcohol is 12.5%. The designation Superiore is reserved for wines displaying the finest qualities and possessing a level of alcohol at least 1% higher than the authorized minimum. The Valpolicella pairs perfectly with red meat dishes, but it also compliments the entire meal thanks to its smoothness.
2006 LE POESIE AMARONE DELLA VALPOLICELLA OUR PRICE $49.99
70% Corvina, 30% Rondinella. Grapes are dried in rafters for 3-4 months then crushed and aged in large oak barrels for two years. Amarone della Valpolicella is a wine of a very ancient tradition and has been praised by poets and writers as far back as the Roman era. This wine, which boasts an ancient tradition, is still made in small quantity from the best grapes of Valpolicella, picked up and left to dry on rafters. This wine was the Gold Medal Winner at the "National Women Wine Competition" in California culminating with an invitation to the National Museum for Women wine tasting in Washington DC. Amarone is perfectly suited to spicy and savory dishes and is also a real treat for all occasions and as corroborant wine between meals.
