They have it at Larchmont Wine and Cheese, and they're sure to have them at either Wine House or K&L...we don't carry either (yet). The Ercavio Blanco is also good (we'll have that soonish).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053780638267491912.post-14884346580739834872007-06-11T10:29:00.000-07:002007-06-11T10:29:00.000-07:00Excellent!

I found that out with a rose' I was drinking that the fruit was so much more prominent when the wine was just a little warmer than right out of the frig.
