Sample Saturdays: Free Wine Tasting with John Carrabus of Global Wines

Are you a lover of Italian wines? In addition to our complimentary daily wine tastings, join us every Saturday as we introduce new wines to you from all over Italy. You will taste up to 3 wines that we will choose to offer to "expand your palate" and we will share food pairing ideas too!

John will be offering:

Nuovi Mondi Gavi del Comune di Gavi DOCG – 100% Cortese. Intense aroma of acacia blossom, lily of the valley, and green apple. The flavor is dry and harmonious. Pair with antipasti or light dishes.

Zorzettig Pinot Grigio – 100% Pinot Grigio. Pretty golden color, it shows dusty florals and spice before giving way to young white peach. The expression is round and pliant in the mouth with subtle notes of ripe apple and almond paste. Salty minerality lingers, framing the expression nicely.

Ambra Santa Cristina In Pilli Carmignano – Sangiovese, Cabernet, Canaiolo & Nero. Medium-to-full-bodied red, aromatic blend. It has floral, brambly fruit aromas and flavors of cherries and blackcurrants entwined with hints of brambly earth and baking spices. Supple tannins bring the wine to a long finish.

Terre de La Custodia Rosso di Montefalco- – Sagrantino, Sangiovese & Montepulciano. Deep ruby red color. Lingering scent of ripe plums, red fruits, and spices. Full bodied wine with velvety and elegant finish. Ideal with pasta dishes with spicy tomato sauce, grilled meats and sausage, aged cheeses.
