Nardini Grappa Bianca
$68.99
This bottle of Nardini Grappa Bianca is exquisitely presented in glass as clear as the Grappa within.
No, this is not written by AI. It took me a long time to come up with this. About as long as it took Nardini to write the tasting note below, at least.
More Not Very Illuminating Information Directly From The Producer's Own Website
"Since 1779 Grappa Nardini is the icon of Grappa in Italy and all around the world.
A symphony of aromas and perfumes born from the expert distillation of pomace from multiple grape varieties using three different distillation methods. It is now guarded in a new bottle, sinuous in its form, made precious by some copper details celebrating the stills and the bicentennial experience of the Nardini Family. Its crystalline colour and characteristic floral and fruity aromas allow you to best enjoy Grappa Bianca Nardini neat or in surprising cocktails."
Cocchi BIanco Americano
$52.99
From the Producer,
"Cocchi Americano is an aromatized wine created in 1891 by Giulio Cocchi and since then produced without interruption according to the original recipe.
The name “Americano” is both due to the alcohol made bitter (“amaricato”) by the addition of herbs and spices and to the American habit of drinking vermouth with ice and soda.
Produced according to Giulio Cocchi original recipe, Cocchi Americano is recognized in Asti as the aperitif par excellence – a real piece of history of our town.
On its label the original futurist rooster designed in the 30’s and representing his aperitif function (“it awakes the appetite”) as well as one of the symbols of the town of Asti."

Domaine Clavel Copa Santa
$49.99
For Estelle and Pierre Clavel, the estate has been a strong and active commitment - no doubt personal - that has resulted in a desire for sharing, not only with family, staff, friends, clients and visitors, but also with everything that surrounds, that inhabits and that sets the scene around them: the olive groves, the areas dedicated to animal farming and the natural grasslands.
The famous Copa Santa! A Pierre Clavel wine… A bottled icon! Ever since the first vintage in 1992, this wine has never lost its recognition among aficionados. A high-end cuvée crafted in enough bottles to appease everyone. Up until 2016, Copa Santa was made with the grapes from La Méjanelle. As of 2017, the grapes have been coming from Montpeyroux. It is a syrah/grenache blend.
Schwaab Kiebel Urziger Riesling Auslese
$62.99
The historic Schwabb-Kiebel winery is located in Urzig in the Moselle region, in the homeland of Riesling. A classic example of a family business, this winery is famous for the excellent ageing potential of its wines. The historic family vineyards of Erdener Treppchen and Urziger Würzgarten are unique and famous for their slate soils that give the wines intriguing mineral nuances and a fruity bouquet. This family-owned winery represents the best qualities and values of a Moselle producer, a great love for nature and a deep respect for the territory, which result in a manual viticulture with low yields and long ripening of the grapes.
Quinta De La Rosa Tinto
$39.99
In 1935, the port shipping company, Feueheerd Bros, is sold to the Barros Family. Thankfully, La Rosa remains in family hands as it was Claire’s personal property.

Rottensteiner Gewurztraminer
$44.99
The Rottensteiner family is one of the oldest winemaking families in South Tyrol. Their viticultural history began around 400 years ago, in a place where vines grow on red stone – the porphyry rock typical of the area. It is from this red stone (Rot = red, Stein = rock) that the family takes its name, and from it the wines gain their distinctive mineral character. The Hans Rottensteiner Winery was founded in 1956 by Hans and is now run by his grandson Hannes, representing the third generation. Elegance and drinkability are the hallmarks of Rottensteiner wines. Alongside these come typicity and a true expression of both grape variety and terroir. That’s why most of the wines are single-varietal and focused on grape varieties that are traditional to the region.
