Introduction

Randy went crazy throwing out the red carpet for Francesca. Grilled pizza on the first day that feels really like spring. Lots of groppi's itallian sausage, but a great, white z with fresh mozzarella, tomato and basil. For this the Gravner Ribolla was amazing.

  • 2007 K Vintners Viognier

    not to exicted or over the top peach notes. light minerality adds complexity to this finely tuned spring quaffer.
