Bava Bass Tuba – Sparkling Moscato
$19.99Piedmont, Italy: Moscato d’ Asti
A sweet sparkling dessert wine that opens with an off-gold color and ripe aromas of peach, honey, candied fruit and mango.
Sustainably Produced: The Bava family estate extends in Monferrato and Langa, with fifty hectares of vineyards and twenty hectares of natural fields and woods, cultivated with the same awareness, care and attention of the olden times resulting in a sustainable agriculture with a reduced environmental impact. Walking along the Bava vineyards, you will notice the grass clippings and the prunings used as natual fertilizers, the poles, all strictly made of wood coming from renewable forests or grassing between vine rows, which not only helps prevent soil erosion, but also serves as proof that no hebicides are used.

FORGE CELLARS, RIESLING DRY FREESE VINEYARDS SENECA LAKE
$24.99MANDARIN ORANGE – LILAC – SUCCULENT
The Freese Vineyard is essentially a northern extension of Breakneck. We can think of these two sites as siblings, their composition is similar (comparable soils, same grape) but the way they carry themselves (the fruit, the flavors, the aromas) show total individualism. Freese is prudent and precise, offering ripeness and restraint, while Breakneck carries intensity and drama.
