SUPERTUSCAN

The Whitney Houston of the wine world, can’t help but love it.

CHIANTI

The perfect drink for a Central Perk themed party, Tuscan style. Sorry, coffee.

 

BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO

Probably Daenerys Targaryen’s preferred denomination.

 

VIN SANTO

If Vin Santo were a pop song, it would be Bruno Mars’ “Just The Way You Are”.
