Alimentari Osteria Features Special Wines of the Month at Grocery Prices

 

Alimentari Osteria (621 W. Randolph St., 312-382-8880), the recently opened traditional Italian eatery in the West loop, is featuring a collection of its exceptional wines for its Special Wines of the Month list. To build on its namesake theme, Alimentari (Italian for marketplace) will showcase select bottles of its Italian and domestic varietals for purchase without a high-priced restaurant markup.

This month, Alimentari features a robust selection of its reds, whites and sparkling wines. Two of the white wines featured are Corte Giara Chardonnay ($18) from the Veneto region, and a Kris Pinot Grigio ($19) from Alto Adige. For the red wine selection guests can enjoy a Decoy Merlot ($35) from Napa Valley, or a Tuscan Chianti ($21) from the wine makers Palladio.
