Friday's Lineup
 

Greetings!

 

This Friday we have wines from Buonamico, a beautiful property located in Tuscany, Italy.  The Buonamico wine estate is located southwest of Monte Carlo, in the Cercatoia area, and covers an area of 38 hectares, 26 of which are dedicated to specialized vineyards. The winery was founded by renowned restaurateurs from Turin in the early 1960s for the purpose of furnishing their restaurants with wines from Monte Carlo. Today, the estate, which is owned by the Fontana family, has expanded in terms of both vineyard land and wine cellar space. While preserving the essential characteristics of ancient winemaking flavors, the "Buonamico" winery has now positioned itself on the market as one of Monte Carlo's leading producers of fine wines.  We will be showcasing two whites and two reds.  See you there!
