Favourite grape or wine region? 

Favourite grape? Syrah. Favourite region? Beaujolais.

Are you a dog or cat person? Or maybe neither. Maybe you have birds or turtles or an ant farm?

I’m a dog person- ask to see pictures of my bulldog, Mack!

If you weren’t selling wine at Bishop’s Cellar, what would you be doing?

It’s hard to say but probably something related to food; I love the idea of working in a test kitchen.

Ryan Almeida's Picks

Crowd Pleasing + Entertaining

Made from Carricante grapes – the indigenous varietal almost exclusively confined to Silicy’s still-active volcano Mount Etna, Tornatore’s offering boasts grapefruit, lemon-lime citrus, some stone fruits, fresh herbs, mouthwatering acidity and firm minerality. To put it simply, this wine does an excellent job of transporting you to Sicily! Volcanic soils + the fact that these grapes do so well grown at high altitudes (2,000m above sea level), there’s no wonder as to why this offers so much complexity and balance for the money. Pair this with a fresh clam pasta dish, poached white fish, or even grilled artichokes.
