"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.
