WINE

Grillo, Cantine Colosi, ’24

Sicily, Italy

This is sunshine in motion, bottled on the island where vines meet volcanoes and sea breezes never stop moving. Grown on the northern coast of Sicily, on the tiny island of Salina, this wine carries the warmth of the Mediterranean with a salty flick of wind off the water.

Cantine Colosi is a family-run estate now led by the third generation, Pietro Colosi, who continues his father’s legacy of showcasing native Sicilian grapes with clarity and soul. Their organically farmed vineyards cling to volcanic slopes, where Grillo thrives in the sun-drenched, sea-kissed conditions.

Fermented in stainless steel to preserve freshness, this white is all about bright expression. Think lemon peel, ripe white peach, wild herbs, and a subtle whisper of salinity. The texture is round but lifted, with zippy acidity and a clean, mineral finish that lingers just long enough. Grillo is often cast as the workhorse of Sicily, but here it’s something more; elegant, precise, and full of coastal character.

CHEESE

Goat Rodeo Wild Rosemary

Allison Park, PA · Cow & Goat–P

Goat Rodeo is a 130-acre, family-owned farm located in northern Allegheny County. They have a herd of more than 100 Alpine and Nubian dairy goats and bring in cow’s milk from local farms to make a variety of fresh and aged cheeses using traditional techniques. Historically, many goat milk cheeses were made in small farmhouses yielding little milk, resulting in the classic fresh and spreadable goat cheeses we love. Goat Rodeo has changed the game with their large farm and therefore plenty of goats. They can produce beautifully snackable cheeses that come in large wheels aged for various lengths of time. Today’s Sunday School selection is Goat Rodeo’s Wild Rosemary. It’s rolled in extra virgin olive oil and, you guessed it, dried rosemary! This award-winning supple beauty is aromatic and exploding with herbal notes inside and out. Be sure to taste the rind. We suggest pairing Wild Rosemary with a crisp cider or St. Germain Spritz.
