Conti Formentini 2000 Torre di Tramontana Chardonnay (Collio)
- $25
A wood-aged 100% Chardonnay, named after the wind that blows regularly in the region. It is citric, crisp, with wood flavors showing through. Spice and vanilla balance with flavors of tropical fruits and a touch of honey.

Satisfying freshness makes this northern Italian Pinot Grigio perfect for salad lunches or smoked salmon. There’s a bright personality here with vibrant tones of citrus, green grass and Granny Smith apple.

Conti Formentini 2011 Furlanà Friulano (Collio)
- $20
This is definitely an offbeat wine, and a slightly strange expression of Friulano from northeast Italy. It is also an interesting expression that shows compelling notes of sweet pear and peach followed by smoky mineral or ashen notes, toasted nut, lemon cola and spicy peppermint.

Conti Formentini 2001 Rylint White (Collio)
This is the first vintage of this blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon Blanc, named after the 16th-century abbess Rylint Formentini. Peppery in character, with rich, complex fruit, it has citric flavors, along with a sense of structure and acidity.

Conti Formentini 2008 Pinot Grigio (Collio)

Conti Formentini 2009 Pinot Grigio (Collio)
- $18
Here is a nicely executed Pinot Grigio with a slightly bigger, more succulent style than your standard Pinot Grigio. Mature fruit aromas of peach, honey and melon make for a nice balance against the wine’s natural freshness.
