Amarone Della Valpolicella DOC Vejo: Full-flavored, warm, inviting, vigorous wine. It has a very intense ruby color, a bouquet of ripe fruit that is complex and persistent.

Chianti Classico Laude - produced & bottled by E. Antinori: Beautiful aromas of sliced plums, with hints of tea. Meduim bodied, with well integrated tannins and a long alluring finish. Harmonious. Possesses both early charm and stuffing but will reward cellaring for 3 to 8 years.
Primitivo Flaio : From the “heel of the boot” comes Italy’s answer to Zinfandel. Yes, they say that Primitivo and Zinfandel have the same roots. Italy’s answer is a softer version and lower in alcohol. The Puglia region has a nice warm climate and Flaio produces Primitivo which is lush, with components of black berries, bramble and spice. Think barbecued ribs!
