Mas Blanch I Jove Sao Expressiu

$42.99

These family owned organic vineyards are located in Les Garrigues, on the western border of the Priorat region, a mountainous area more than 700 meters above sea level. The uniqueness of the vineyards’ soil, the low rainfall, the ample sunshine and the significant temperature differentials between day and night allow them to obtain a product of exceptional quality. Made from a blend of  Grenache, Cabernet Sauvignon and Tempranillo this wine packs a punch. Complex aromas, elegant and mature with highlights of red and black fruits accompanied by a blend of balsamic and aniseed flavours that provide a distinct freshness. Cocoa and vanilla are there, but subtle. Soft yet potent on the pallet, consistent and elegant with an emergence of forest fruits and sweet spices. Good acidity, elegant, tasty with soft tannins. Velvety and fresh tannins. An expressive wine that talks to you. One of the best from the region of Costers del Segre! Enjoy with big red meat, stews, hearty vegetarian fare, and on its own. 

Best's Great Western Chardonnay

$34.99

One of the great things about this GW Chard is the fact that the grapes come from some of the earliest plantings of Chardonnay in Australia. They are grown on a deep gravel hill with a west facing slope and what this means is low yields and great intense flavors. Aromas of flint and stone fruit. Rich and complex on the palate yet remaining elegant and subtle. Great price for this Chardonnay too!

Johnnie Walker Gold Reserve

$89.99

The Gold Label from the Johnnie Walker line of Blended Scotch has a small but strong following, likely due Clynelish being one of its core components. The likes of Cardhu and Caol Ila also make up the base of this blend which contains a total of 14 to 16 different distilleries in its makeup. Much of the marketing talks about it being best served chilled, but that is entirely up to you. Bottled at 40% ABV.

Tedeschi Monte Olmi

$134.99

Monte Olmi is the name of the vineyard, located in Pedemonte di Valpolicella, the heart of the Classic Valpolicella zone. Grown on ancient terraces to ensure water removal in case of abundant rainfall, it is one of the crown jewels of the Tedeschi line. Notes of cherry, raspberry and red currant combined with a hint of Slavonia oak. The taste is elegant and robust. Best consumed within 15-20 years of the vintage date.

Tedeschi San Rocco Ripasso

$34.99

Ripasso wine is made using an ancient winemaking technique called "ripasso." (Some call it the poor man's Amarone!) The young Valpolicella wine is fermented with the unpressed but drained skins and lees left over from making Amarone. This adds flavor and intensity though Ripasso normally has a lighter taste than Amarone wines, which makes it easier to combine with food, and is often less expensive. Fruity, well-balanced and very well structured. Best food matches are: red meat, game and cheeses.

Tedeschi Soave

$25.99

A crowd-pleasing white wine at a great price! The Tedeschi family began their business in 1824 and have been making wine and tending their vineyards in Valpolicella ever since. Soave, named after the hilltop town in the Veneto, is made from 85% Garganega and 15% Chardonnay grapes which are harvested by hand in early October.

This delicious white wine is made with Gargenega (85%) and Chardonnay grapes from vineyards located in the oldest area of origin – the commune of Monteforte d’Alpone – the zone that makes up the bulk of the classic Soave region. The distinctive winemaking technology employed yields an elegant and velvety wine with a delicate almond-scented nose along with stone fruit notes and crisp acidity.

Tedeschi Valpolicella

$26.99

Valpolicella is the famous wine growing region in the north of Italy. Generally three grapes are used in the production of Valpolicella: Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara. The grapes are harvested by hand at the beginning of October and, after fermentation, rest in large oak barrels for a year. The resulting wine is very fresh with clear notes of cherry and currants. This wine is the perfect 1, 2 punch for Pizza or pasta.  Complete your Italian meal with this bright beauty.

Toni Jost Bacharacher Trocken

$29.99

Toni Jost's grapes grow on steep slopes in the narrow valley of the Rhine. The northern location allows the grapes to ripen slowly. Unique Rieslings and Pinot Noirs grow here on slate soil. The manual work, minimally supported by special machines, is simply a reality on such steep vineyard sites and the wines express the work and care that goes into making them. The vineyards are located on both sides of the Rhine, in the Middle Rhine Valley and in the Rheingau. In Bacharach on the Middle Rhine, the family has been growing Rieslings here since 1831. Seven generations of the Jost family have laid the foundation for some of the best wines produced in the Mittlerhein and Rheingau.

Drouhin Oregon Cloudline P Noir

$33.99

Part of the Joseph Drouhin empire, Cloudine is an "affordable" Pinot Noir made from grapes grown in Oregon. It exhibits a fine balance of bright red-berry flavors and strong, soft tannins. It's fresh and lively now, but give it another six months and some of its sharper angles will have rounded out nicely.
