San Leonardo Villa Gresti
$64.99
More than 1000 years ago, San Leonardo was a monastery, but for over three centuries now, it has served as the residence of the Marchesi Guerrieri Gonzaga family, its proud custodians. Today, the estate is a garden of vineyards and roses, protected by the massive barrier of the Alps, which blunt the force of the cold northern winds while the valley floor benefits from, and in turn releases, warmth from nearby Lake Garda. The winemaking practices are still uncompromisingly artisanal, yielding wines that are true gems of Italy’s wine tradition, marked by freshness, harmony, and an innate elegance
It's a blend of merlot, cabernet sauvignon and carmenere, a powerful wine offering notes of raspberries, cassis, balsamic hints, and sweet spices, with the ability to age for another decade.

Heartland Sposa e Sposa
$23.99
Lagrein and Dolcetto are two Italian grapes that would never be blended together in Italy. When it came to the point where Australia was fighting for same-sex marriage, Heartland decided that with this untraditional blend, they would donate $1 from every bottle to help the LGBTQ community fight for equality. Since then, Australia has opened the doors for marriage and Heartland now is donating to the same-sex marriage fight in Vietnam. Not only is this wine delicious (with elegant floral, red fruit and earth notes), but you also know that your money will be helping the never-ending fight for the LGBTQ community!

The opaque ruby/purple-colored 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced mainly from Oakville vineyards, exhibits notes of baking spices, toast, blackcurrants and blackberries.

Terredora Aglianico Il Principio 2015
$43.99
Made from 100% Aglianico grown in family-owned vineyards in Montemiletto.
This winery begins with a tale of two brothers - Walter and Antonio Mastroberardino -who parted ways, with Antonio acquiring the winery and Walter acquiring the vineyards (renamed as Terradora). The Terredora di Paolo estate is located on the hills of Irpinia surrounding the valleys of the Sabato and Calore rivers. With about 180 hectares of vineyards, they rank among the most prestigious producers in Southern Italy. The South of Italy is one of the most interesting wine areas in the country and Campania, and especially the Irpinia region, produces wines from native grape varieties such as Aglianico, Fiano, Greco, Piedirosso and Falanghina, all of which are brimming with personality. Aglianico has been called the Barolo of the South for its power and its ability to age for many years. We have just received their Irpinia Aglianico, Falanghina, Rosato, and Lacryma Cristi Rosso (made from Piedirosso).
