Benvenuti!

We welcome you to Rustico Restaurant & Wine Bar!  Our wine list offers Italian wines, American wines and Global wines, as well as a 20 under $30 selection and wines by the glass.  Focusing primarily on Italian wines, this part of our wine list is divided by region allowing you to experience the distinct varietals grown within the 20 regions of Italy.

Today Italy is the second largest producer of wine with over 270 varieties of native grapes, more than any country in the world. Several of our producers such as Antinori, Tenuta San Guido and Pio Cesare, to name a few, are widely known as leaders in the Italian market.  While other wines on our list come from the smaller boutique vineyards, who are also producers of outstanding wines that focus on being quality conscious.

Our Barolo’s, Super Tuscans and Brunello’s, highlight some of our favorite producers as well as their better vintages.  As you get to know our wine list we also hope you try some of Italy’s newer varieties such as Amarone Valpolicella, Aglianico and Soave Classico, to name some of our favorites.  As the rules of pairing wines and food have lost the formality of strict guidelines we would be happy to assist you in choosing a wine that complements your meal as well as offering you a wine that suits your tastes and desires.

Buon Appetito,
Gino, Ivano & Michelina

“Wine is one of the most civilized things in the world and one of the most natural things of the world that has been brought to the greatest perfection, and it offers a greater range for appreciation than, possibly, any other purely sensory thing.”

-Ernest Hemingway, Death In The Afternoon
