($8ish).
Frascati is more than a wine, it's a state
of mind. I first sipped this light Italian
white wine at a sidewalk cafe in Rome.
For me, a bottle of Frascati has that
Calgon-take-me-away effect. This weekend,
I took myself away with my favorite Fontana
Candida, grilled salmon, white bean and
roasted garlic puree, and sautéed spinach.
The only thing missing was a convoy of
beautiful, Italian boys scootering past
my table. "Frascati, take me away!"
