Antinori Italian Wine Tasting This Weekend
Start the weekend out right at Enoteca - Fine Wine & Beer!
This Friday from 4-7 Enoteca will be hosting Kevin Olsonberg of Odom as he shares a delicious selection of wine from Italy. We want to give you the opportunity to “try before you buy” so we offer a flight of wine for a low cost. Taste a flight (2 oz. each of 5 wines) for $10 per flight, and follow up with a glass. We will be tasting Saturday from 12-7 as well, which is a great time to beat the rush.
Antinori Campogrande Orvieto 2006 (Orvieto Claissico, Italy)
