Wine
Mediterranean island wines are on the rise, whether from smaller ones such as Majorca or larger ones such as Sardinia. The 2011 Santa Maria La Palma Aragosta Vermentino di Sardegna ($14) is one of the very best values, with bursts of fresh fruit flavors and mouthwatering minerality. The finish is long enough to last through a bite of this vibrant white's ideal food pairing, which is most any kind of seafood (per the label). Available at 1st Grand, North Loop, Byerly's, Kowalski's, Haskell's, Solo Vino and others.
