Over the course of the holiday season, it seems that there is a higher frequency of entertaining. Whether you find yourself unexpectedly hosting a gathering or need to make a quick appearance at a friend’s abode, it is important to have a good selection of high quality, affordable wines. Our good friend Abramo’s wines from Collio, Italy, Cormòns, will be those go-to wines.
On Saturday, we will be featuring wines made from organically grown grapes from southern France. O by Gilles Louvet are certified Agriculture Biologique, meaning that the wines must contain more than 95% organic components and be certified by one of the accredited inspection bodies of the EU.

Italian Holiday Wines with Abramo
The wines of Cormòns, Collio, Italy
Cormòns lies in the heart of Friuli’s wine country.
The surrounding Collio countryside is blanketed with vineyards, reminiscent of Tuscany’s rolling hills or California’s lush Napa Valley. The name Collio is derived from the Italian word colli, meaning “hills,” which epitomizes this landscape where the grapes have more sun exposure than in the low-lying plains. These wines are well-made with great structure and beautiful purity. Regularly priced at $16.99, they are on special for $12.99 for the holidays.
