Nino Franco Prosecco is here!

By that, I mean Nino Franco Rustico Prosecco di Valdobbiadene -- one of my favorite, favorite wines, and one of Italy's best exports -- is for sale at Kroger.

You know, the run-of-the-mill, not in any way high-end supermarket chain.

That Kroger! I saw it today while I was picking up a few things.

As Bob Dylan said, the times, they are-a-changin!

Of course, a bottle at Kroger costs $15.48, which Ciambellina knows is not a good price. I've bought it at the Wine Library in New Jersey for around $13.90.

But still. It's one more step in the Italianification of America!

Let's hear it for the Bel Paese!
