Brunello: A Very Hot Tipe

I normally try to keep hot wine tips at Trader Joes at about the $10 price point but I have one that must be shared.  A 2003 Brunello Di Montalcino for $19.99.  The label is Bonacchi and if you look for it on-line, you'll find that it retails for $80 a bottle! 

It's an awesome wine with lots of red fruit and berries but with a little more body than your typical Sangiovese.  This wine has some ooomph.  Last year at TJ's we had two other Brunellos, each at over $50 a bottle, but this Bonacchi is better than either of those. 

At our store, people are coming in and buying it by the case so you had better hurry before everyone else gets your fair share.

Good luck,
