Juicy and full-flavored mouthfeel. Displays good complexity in the palate with fruit followed by balsamic and spiced flavors. Good balance between alcohol and freshness with smooth tannins. Long finish with fruity aftertaste. Excellent wine to pair with grilled red meats and Mediterranean style pasta.
Falernia Gran Reserva Carmenere 2017

This comes from the hotel soils of Vicuna, which Giorgio Flessati says are ideally suited to the variety, and is partly made with Appassimento technique of drying grapes that is used in the Veneto region of Northern Italy. Off-dry and slightly figgy, with a green undertone and spice new American oak.
Gigglewater Proscco Doc
BEST SPARKLING
CULINAIRE MAGAZINE The palate is moussy; it is fine-boned and juicy and doles out crisp orchard fruits and citrus flavours. It’s a completely agreeable fizz, a nice addition to the lineup of the world’s most quaffed sparkling category. The tempting packaging alone is an open invitation to get your giggle on.
