STG Dry Creek Zinfandel

Not as heavy or extracted as many other Dry Creek Zinfandels, this well-balanced wine combines refined flavors, structured tannins and a clean, smooth finish, making it an ideal wine to serve with a variety of foods including grilled meats, wild game and hearty stews. In the nose, ripe fruit aromas of plum, blackberry and currants mingle with subdued notes of oak. The harvest included approximately 10% raisined grapes, intensifying the flavors and adding another layer of complexity to the wine.

Chateau Julien Merlot

This Merlot established the winery's significant role as a Merlot producer nationwide over ten years ago. Soft tannins and subtle oak balance out the fruit in this medium bodied wine. A full, lingering finish with superb structure and texture.

Domaine Ruet Morgon

The Ruet family estate, which is set on the remarkable terroir of Voujon in Cercié-en-Beaujolais at the foot of Mont Brouilly has been fuelled by a passion for Beaujolais wine and land for six generation since 1926. This 16-hectare spreads over slopes that are superbly south facing. Here you will find the shallow, granitic, stony soils characteristic of the Northern Beaujolais region that give quality wines.

Rex Hill Chardonnay

A crisp, yet complex wine, the 2006 Rex Hill Chardonnay represents the sixth vintage of Oregon’s original ultra-premium “un-oaked” Chardonnay. To highlight the wonderful fruit and underlying minerality in some of the Willamette Valley’s best vineyard sites, we ferment in small stainless steel fermenters to retain the fruit’s bright transparency and then age the wines on their lees in small stainless steel drums to achieve a creamy mouthfeel. Aromas of candied citrus, plums, green apple. Good richness on the attack, with broad palate-coating flavors that echo the nose. The brisk acidity adds structure and freshness, focusing the mineral notes, and lengthening flavors.

Rutherford Ranch Chardonnay

This characteristic Chardonnay starts off with aromas of freshly picked apricots and sweet honey. The fruit theme continues with scents of crisp green apples and just peeled lemon zest followed by hints of vanilla and crème brûlée. Full bodied, with beautiful balance, this Napa Valley Chardonnay with flavors of ripe peach, pear, vanilla and crisp Myers lemon are perfectly balanced leaving your palate with a clean, crisp finish.

Est! Est!! Est!!! di Montefiascone

This wine shows a brilliant greenish yellow color and nuances of greenish yellow, very transparent. The nose reveals clean and pleasing aromas that start with hints of pear and hawthorn followed by aromas of apple, broom and almond. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a crisp attack and however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The finish is pretty persistent with flavors of pear, apple and almond. This wine ages in steel tanks.

Tamas Estates Pinot Grigio

When you pour Tamas Estates Pinot Grigio you’re really pouring yourself a glass of chilled Italian heritage. Crisp grapefruit and citrus flavors perfectly pair with many fantastic dishes, or even better with warm breezy summer days on the porch.

Simi Sonoma County Rosato

From Simi Winery comes a wonderfully crisp, lush and refreshing Roseto. Made from 97% Syrah and 3% Viognier grapes it is aged in 100% stainless steel. The appearance in the glass is one of cranberry with rose hues. On the nose one detects papaya, guava, peach and red raspberry accented with white flowers and licorice. In the glass you get wild strawberry and pineapple with a dash of white pepper on the finish. Perfect for summer days and nights.

J Bookwalter Corner Lee Vineyard White

J Bookwalter is making a wide variety of great bottles and this is no exception. Made from 56% Chardonnay and 44% Viognier this 100% stainless steel co-fermented, dry white wine blend offers vibrant aromas of pears, citrus and honeydew melon. Flavors of apricot and tropical fruits are framed in with a crisp refreshing finish.

 

Bleasdale Shiraz/Cabernet

Comprising 51% Shiraz and 49% Cabernet Sauvignon the wine displays flavours of ripe plum jam and blackberries from the Shiraz components together with more subtle notes of mint and spice produced from Cabernet Sauvignon portions. Fine tannins lengthen the palate and toasty oak, gained from 12 months maturation in a mixture of older French and American oak barrels, adds further complexity to the blend. A wine made for immediate consumption or, if you prefer the more developed flavours of chocolate and truffle, 3 or 4 years in the cellar should bring this about.

Sullivan Vineyards Red Ink

Red Ink wine combines the two red grapes that Napa does best: Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Blending the two is a tradition from Bordeaux and gives Red Ink tons of flavor: raspberry, plum, blackberry, and cherry all leap out of the glass. It's a rich, full-bodied wine with firm tannins and good acidity, so it goes beautifully with a variety of dishes.

Moshin Vineyards 2005 Syrah

Aroma of concentrated jammy fruit, spice and viscous molasses. Bacon, wood smoke and a touch of tobacco on the finish makes this wine perfect for an evening BBQ with friends or a romantic filet mignon for two. Pairs fashionably well with blueberry and black pepper compote, with or without the vanilla ice cream. Drink now through 2013. Only 292 cases produced.
