No need to spend a million
to drink a wine Sicilian.
John Edwards’ Villa Pozzi
(which we found hotsy-totsy)
is going for nine dollars,
which oenophilic scholars,
will tell you is a deal
bordering on a steal.
Drink deeply of the Villa
and you will sense vanilla
and blackberries and solar
and Francis Ford Coppolar.
Unlike this verse annoying
this wine is never cloying.
With screwtop, not a cork,
it goes with beef and pork,
is reliably delicious
except, of course, with fishes.
