Time to Taste a Marvellous Monastrell



This  Spanish red is just 13 bucks! And it's great!  Monastrell, also know as Mourvèdre, is a great grape for Cab Sauv drinkers as it can have a lot of tannins, acidity and flavour! This wine is a 2020 Finca La Solana Las Hermanas Monastrell.

Don’t Mess With This Sicilian!



This Nerello Mascalese is a well-priced red that is definitely worth checking out. Pasta? Pizza? Cheese? This 2020 Zabu Il Passo will go with them all!

This wine is made in Western Sicily in a passimento style where the grapes that are left on the vines after being harvested from 15 - 20 days - this makes a very flavourful, rich wine.
