Thirsty Tuesday, Too?

If you haven't already tried the Santa Martina Rosso, you've likely seen it on our shelves. It's a "daily red" kind of wine, perfect with a meal or with friends. We've just added the Pinot Grigio from Santa Martina, offering the same kind of quality and value as in the red.

Grown in the northeastern region of Veneto, Italy, Santa Martina is made from 100% Pinot Grigio. The grapes are hand-picked from hillside vineyards 750 feet above sea level with well-drained, mineral-rich, volcanic basaltic rock and calcerous clay soils.

After handpicking, grapes are brought to the winery for vinification. The grapes are gently crushed by pneumatic press and selected yeasts are added prior to three weeks of cold fermentation at 57°F.

It has a crisp, vibrant texture and delicate aromas of white fruit and apple are offset by notes of acacia blossoms and almonds.

Santa Martina Pinot Grigio is available for the Bottle Club® price of only $9.96. The warmer weather is the perfect time to try out a new white wine with a salad, with seafood, or with friends.
