WINE SHOP: Trimani



Trimani Wine
via Goito, 20

Would you prefer to venture to an international wine shop for your Turkey Day wine? Trimani maintains a well-stocked wine shop about 40 meters from its wine bar, at Via Goito 20 (tel. 06-4469661), where an astonishing array of international wines are for sale. The shop is open from Monday to Friday 8:30am to 1:30pm and 3:30 to 8pm. It is short walk from the American embassy and has a very decent selection of international wines. From their French red burgundy section (or Bourgogne, made from the pinot noir grape), try one from Domain Faiveley (25 euro). Bright fruit (framboises, cerises) and hints of leather will light up your palate and you’ll understand the fuss behind the Sideway’s account of this varietal. Missing American wine? I saw a couple of Oregon pinot noirs that would be fun to try. Slightly less spendy, Trimbach has been making Alsatian whites since 1626 and their line of Riesling and Pinot Gris are always delicious with turkey. Take the bottle out of the fridge about 20 minutes before serving to really let the flavors warm up.
