The following two wines have long been favorites here at Harney's. We are featuring them in case you may not have tried them yet or you are new to the store. Both wines have a tralcetto: a grape vine, around their neck:
CANTINA ZAGGAGNINI MONTEPULCIANO d'ABRUZZO
Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is a red grape variety grown extensively in the region of Abruzzo, Central Italy. The wine is medium- to full-bodied, earthy, exhibiting aromas and flavors of plum, blackberry, leather, black pepper, vanilla, with a herbal component.
CANTINA ZAGGAGNINI PINOT GRIGIO
Typical of an Italian Pinot Grigio, this wine is fresh, light, dry (not sweet), clean, crisp, well-balanced, with pleasant aromas and flavors of citrus, with a mineral component. It is an excellent complement to fish, seafood, chicken, cheese and cracker appetizers.
