ITALY – ROSÉ WINE TUSCANY GUADO AL TASSO SCALABRONE ROSATO 2024 DOC Bolgheri (Marchesi Antinori)
SPAIN – WHITE WINE
POMELADO ORANGE WINE 2023 Vinos de la Tierra de Castilla, sustainable, vegan (Dominio de Punctum) Orange wine is produced through an ancient process that sees the wine receive skin contact, in this case between 10 and 14 days, during fermen- tation. This imparts greater flavour, colour and texture to white wines than is typically sought. This example shows robust, vibrant tropical fruit, apple and nuts. It will be great with sushi or grilled salmon. Aromatic & Flavourful 12119 (XD) 750 mL $14.95 1 4 Organic product
