It’s that time of year when fruit, spice, and everything nice show at its best. Whether you love pairing these wines with braises, slow-cooker, one-pot themes, family meals, or great restaurant leftovers, the “Fallin’ in Love” packages are made specifically to highlight Seattle’s favorite season in its best light.
This special four-bottle box features staff-favorite off-the-beaten-path Italian red wines from Alto Adige, Valpolicella, Abruzzo, and Campania. Pinot Noir and Nebbiolo wine lovers will adore the 2022 De Vescovi Ulzbach Dolomiti Teroldego 'Rosso Ulzbach' and the 2020 Corte Scaletta Valpolicella with their lifted, red fruit and baking spice aesthetic. Rioja, Bordeaux, or Cotes-du-Rhone fans will find their new favorite DOC in Italy’s Abruzzo. The 2019 Valle Martello Villamagna DOC is a handsome Montepulciano (grape) from Villamagna (DOC in Abruzzo) that shows an impressive and well-balanced ratio between fruit, spice, and structure. Black cherry, mulberry, and plum skin are layered with sweet tobacco, clove, wood spices, licorice, and walnut. This heady blend of aromas translates to a rich yet smooth, velvety palate where rounded tannins lead to a lengthy and pleasant finish. And, if you love pizza and pasta, you will adore this new Aglianico from Campania. We’ve included links to each wine below to read about their background and tasting notes and discover new pairing ideas.
