Tiburzi Colle Scancellato
This is wine makes friends easily, and it won us over from the first sip. Made mostly from Sangiovese, it has bright cherry fruit and just enough acidity to go with dinner. It's also one of the best values in the store. Winemaking Details: Unfiltered
Palazzone Orvieto
Palazzone cultivates the indigenous grape varieties allowed in the Orvieto D.O.C., namely Procanico, Verdello, Grechetto, Drupeggio and Malvasia Toscana. They do not use insecticides or fungicides in their vineyards and are judicial in the amount of sulfur added to their wines. Word has it on the rough tough streets of Brooklyn that a good Orvieto has hints of almonds on the nose and a palate of white summer flowers. This is it...word.

Bea Montefalco Rosso Vigna San Valentino
From the great Paolo Bea. Chock-full of smoky red fruits, a full spectrum of dried flowers in the nose and a veritable walk through the woods. The tannins are grainy and sweet but not too powerful. Beautiful balance and grace. Winemaking Details: Vinified in Used Barrel, Spontaneous Yeast Fermentation, Unfiltered, Unfined
Paolo Bea Rosso de Veo
One of Italy’s most sought after estates and for good reason. This young vine Sagrantino is medium bodied with beautifully subtle blue and blackberry fruit with wild herbs, flowers, cassis and subtle notes of earthiness.. Paolo Bea has become a bit of a rock star in the natural wine world (if that's possible) and his wines show attention to detail and the touch of a master's hand. ...And you don't have to be a wine geek to appreciate them!

Bea Montefalco Sagrantino Vigneto Pagliaro
We’re not worthy! Paolo Bea’s wines should have been served at the Last Supper. This small estate produces wine, grows olives, fruits, vegetables and raises farm animals. To this day, the Beas produce much of what they consume on a daily basis...no farmer’s market for them. All grapes are harvested manually. Derived from the Italian meaning drink of the gods, the Sagrantino grape explodes with cherry on the nose and gives way to dark chocolate and wet earth on the palate. Drink this now or keep for your tenth anniversary.
