Felsina Pepestrino - The Wine of the Week UNDER $15

I took a bottle of this tasty treat home last night for a bit of “product familiarization” (*read: drank the whole bottle myself).

Wow, what a refreshing wine! 70% Trebbiano Toscano, 15% Chardonnay and 15% Sauvignon Blanc, Pepestrino is bright and crisp, but full and richly floral on the nose and palate. For me,  in an Italian white category that is crowded with boring, watered down junk-bottles, wines like Felsina Pepestrino, and for that matter, Zenato Lugana and Maculan Pinot and Toi are original, interesting and frankly, hands down a better value than Pinot Grigios in the same price range. Give this one a try and see if you don’t agree!
