Wine Tasting 1-4pm Saturday, Jan 19

Your host will be Joseph De Rosa of Harry's.

Castelvero Cortese 2011 $7.99
This is a fresh and lively dry white from the Piedmont region of Italy in the north. Made of 100% Cortese, which is the same grape as Gavi di Gavi, look for lots of lemon/lime citrus fruit and balanced, zippy acidity. Take a break from Pinot Grigio and try a wonderful alternative.



Vall Llach Embruix 2009 $24.99
This red has a smooth, polished texture, which carries harmonious flavors of berry, plum, licorice and mineral, joined by notes of wild herbs and chocolate. Approachable, but shows depth and intensity. Drink now through 2015. Wine Spectator, 90 pts
