Cantina Produttori San Michele Appiano 2004 St. Valentin Pinot Bianco (Alto Adige)

Beautifully integrated wood tones enhance aromas of vanilla, banana, spice and stone fruit. There’s even a subtle note of melted butter or bacon fat in there. Like Chardonnay, Pinot Bianco has the natural consistency to match longer periods of oak aging.

Cantina Produttori San Michele Appiano 2003 St. Valentin Lagrein (Alto Adige)
- $50
Big in depth and hidden nooks and crannies, this is a fabulously chewy red wine with carefully etched aromas of blueberry, currants, cookie dough, toasted oak and chalky minerals. It would make an easy match to stewed rabbit (use half a cup of the wine in the sauce).
