From: Piedmont, Italy
Blend: 50% Favorita, 25% Moscato, 20% Arneis, 5% Chardonnay
Taste: If you ever need a white wine for a wedding, reunion, or any large gathering, look no further than this Piemontese white blend from Marco Tintero, a specialist of festive, unpretentious, and hedonistic bottlings from the gorgeous hills of Piedmont. Not only does it deliver flat-out deliciousness and exceptional value, but more importantly—and more fun—it bears a slight effervescence that dials its “festive factor” up to 10. With pure, bright, and fresh notes of citrus and orchard fruit, this bianco proves once again that Piedmont is not just about lofty Barolo and Barbaresco, but is home also to some of the country’s great weeknight table—and weekend celebration—wines. —Tom Wolf, KLWM

Pairing: An extremely versatile white, perfect for weeknights, weekend brunches, and get togethers. Pair alongside anything from popcorn to fried chicken, with all the fresh sides: veggies, salads, and fruits. Great for a picnic with sandwiches and potato salad, and also fantastic alongside many dishes from Asia. Japanese, Thai, American-Chinese takeout, dim sum, Vietnamese and Filipino fare (see recipe below for an idea!) all work wonderfully with this wine.
