Imagine a wine that is released for upwards of one hundred dollars a bottle, such as the celebrated Rochioli Pinot Noir of Sonoma County, and then picture vines just across the road, with the same climatic conditions, and nearly the same soil. That would be Gallo of Sonoma Pinot Noir, produced by Matt and Gina Gallo, the second generation of the largest winemakers in the world, the Gallo family. This is a delicious wine at a bargain basement price; sweet and spicy, rich, velvet-smooth, and excellent with food. How can you lose?
Available at Smith's Supermarkets, $10.99, or $8.99 with a Fresh Values Card.
