WINE

It's SUMMER! However, unlike high gas prices, it will be gone before you know it! So, as you venture closer to home to share more quality time with family and friends, here are three very different and adventurous wines for you to try. Sit back, take a sip, and visit France and Italy without ever leaving your porch.

Domaine des Trois Toits, Gros Plant 2006, Loire Valley France $14.99
An important, but, to Americans, an obscure grape, Gros Plant is a widely planted secondary grape of the Muscadet region of the Loire Valley in North Western France. This major, maritime region's cuisine is complimented by the steely, mineral laden wines that pair perfectly with its various shellfish like oysters. Briny and lime-zesty, the Gros Plant grape provides its own mignonette. Taught and bright, the clean acidity is tense and vibrant on the palate.

Vinosia, Fiano di Avellino 2006, Puglia Italy $21.99
The ancient Roman varietal Fiano di Avellino is a grape long revered for its noble character. Rich aromas of honeysuckle, lilac, citrus blossom and white pepper are in abundance, as is the notion that this is a big wine. The palate is broad with vibrant acidity keeping alive the creamy, nutty texture. Honey and apricot are pronounced on the palate, and the wine screams for anything from casual conversation to grilled antipasti. The long, fleshy apricot and perfumed finish will still be there when you finish your talking point.

Domaine de la Fruitierre, Jardin de la Fruitierre 2004, Loire Valley France $13.99
A unique and maverick blend for the Loire, this wine incorporates equal parts Chardonnay and Melon de Bougogne (the grape of Muscadet), and lesser (5% each) part of Folle Blanche (A.K.A. Gros Plant, see above) and Sauvignon Gris. The brooding nose gives off soothing spice, honey and white chocolate aromas - subtle yet intriguing. The palate is like comb honey - thick and full - with a pleasing honey mead headiness. This would be great with the soft ripened goat, sheep and cow's milk cheeses of the region, with spiced nuts and fig and pear confit. Obscure, yet divine! Enjoy!
