SUMMERTIME WHITES from ITALY

From LIGURIA –
2008 COLLE DEI BARDELLINI Pigato $17.99 (Liguria) “the ultimate summer wine”
Grown in vineyards along the Italian Riviera, PIGATO is one of the best pairings for fish, seafood and shellfish. Also shines with pesto and lighter pasta dishes. A fresh, briny character, citrus fruit with aromas of sage and thyme. Beautiful minerality lends a crisp yet silky finish. One taste, and it will be easy to find many occasions to enjoy PIGATO!
