Buonanotte


This is one of the first nights in a while that I'm not working late or somewhere else. It was also a rough day at the office, so when I got off the subway I went to the nearest liquor store and bought wine.

Now I don't normally go for Italian wine, but I had a feeling I was going to eat pasta for dinner. I decided to get a 2008 bottle of Villadoro's Montepulciano D'Abruzzo. For about $10, this soft, medium-bodied wine hits the spot. The black cherry flavor isn't overpowering, so it went well with a vegetarian dish. I would definitely buy this bottle again. I also recommend Trader Giotto's artichoke ravioli - they were delicious. However I ate the entire package, which apparently is 3 servings. Oh well!
