Striking a pose... Pretty colours! Beautiful smiles Featuring a special guest Rose Coppola Sofia - $19.95 . We seemed to like this one. A little dry. We like the label and the name! Casal Thaulero Sangiovese Terre di Chieti - $7.75 . Our most economical but drinkable. Julie enjoyed this one but it burned her nostrils when she tried to sniff it. Lesson learned: good for drinking and not for smelling. Ruffino Chianti Classico Riserva Ducale - $22.45. Second most expensive but most liked! Cab Merlot Organic Frogpond Farm - $24.00. Most expensive and most earthy...it was OK. Fonseca Periquita White - $8.95. Should have had this first! Light and easy, but difficult to appreciate after the heavier flavours. Fennel, orange and olive salad Lamb, mint sauce, nut loaf, corn, watermelon + feta salad I want your cannoli nooooowwww! Too many cannoli...
