Two New Local Wine Labels
Yesterday was Drink Wine Day, and we hope this list was a helpful guide to this burg s independent wine scene. And now, guess what: two more local, private-label wines have dropped. First, chef Joey Maggiore of The Maggiore Group (Tomaso’s, The Sicilian Butcher, Hash Kitchen) started his own wine line. Red, white, sparkling, and dessert wines will be released under the label Chef Joey, and the first wine (a cabernet sauvignon) is available only to dine-in customers at The Sicilian Butcher, for $50 a bottle. And Pita Jungle has also released two varietals a cabernet sauvignon and a chardonnay under the name Jungle Vino. Bottles are now available at all Arizona Pita Jungle locations for $18, or $5 a glass during happy hour.
