ViniVita - Free shop + afordable wine = Vacaciones!

Riktig god sommer venner, friends, amigos.

This time, my wine recommendations are for your way back from summer holidays. After expending all you penger abroad, make good use of whatever money remained in your account, and pass by the duty free!
Good opportunity to get good wines at good prices, and some special wines that normally we can’t afford på polet!

* Castello di Nipozzano Mormoreto. Toscana, Italy.
One of my favourite duty free wines. Vigorous powerful wine.
VNMNPLT = NOK 429
TAX FREE = NOK 245
4 U2 SAVE = NOK 184 (Yohoo!)

* Marqués de Caceres Reserva
Un clásico. This one is well known, and a safe good buy!
VNMNPLT = NOK 165
TAX FREE = NOK 125
