"Pick of the Week"
When you're in the shop this weekend, make sure you try a taste of Dale's
Pick of the Week. It is Araldica Gavi La Luciana from the Piedmont region
of Italy. This beautiful 2007 vintage, made from 100% Cortese
grapes, is light straw yellow in color and has delightful aromas of
grapefruit, green apple and lemon. Lovely mineral overtones of this
light-to-medium-bodied wine end in a refreshingly dry finish. Wine
Advocate scores at 87 points. And since it's the "Pick of the
Week," we're selling it at a reduced price of $10.99/bottle (regular
price: $12.99/bottle). Stop by Thursday-Saturday for a taste and you'll
be sure to take one or two home with you.
