Hansel Cuvee Alyce Pinot Noir
$81.99
From The Winemaker
Alyce was my Mom and she was the life of the party.
There is a section of vineyard right in the middle of the North slope where the soils are very heavy adobe clay resulting in the vines struggling to produce a crop more than 1 ton to the acre. It is a field blend of clone 777 and 115. This minimal crop yield tends to produce wines that are big, rich, "over the top" flavors; perfect for "Alyce". The South Slope begins at the highest elevation and the furthest South of all of the vineyards blocks. Soils are predominantly sandy loam and the vines are all from Burgundy clone 777. Dark cherry, tobacco, cedar, dried autumn leaves and iron lend this wine tons of character and depth.
Marcarini Moscato D'Asti
$27.99
Moscato d'Asti is an extraordinary dessert wine, sweet, aromatic and slightly sparkling. The vine is the ancient Moscato bianco del Piemonte (white Moscato of Piedmont), already known in the Roman times. Aromatic, floral and fruity, the taste is pleasantly sweet and fresh due to the low alcohol content. Enjoy with fresh pastries and cakes, the classic panettone, all kinds of baked desserts and fruit.

Rust En Vrede Estate
$83.99
So many accolades for this gorgeous red, it's hard to keep track but let us share this one. Nelson Mandela selected Rust en Vrede for his celebratory Nobel Peace Prize dinner in Oslo in 2004. Wow! Scores in the 90s consistently. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz. Offers great intensity and a powerful mouth filling experience. Dark berries and notes of coffee give way to a lingering finish.
Roumieu Sauternes 375 ml
$29.99
The Romieu family have farmed their plot of land in the coveted Sauternes since the 18th century. A classic Sauternes defined by its botrytis-infected grapes, this wine features rich textures of peach, mango, and pineapple, complemented by subtle undertones of chamomile tea and dried herbs. Smoky nuances and white pepper spice blend seamlessly with balanced acidity for an appealing finish. Botrytis cinerea - aka Noble Rot- is a necrotrophic fungus that affects grapes, effectively turning them into raisins on the vine. Someone figured out that you could still press those grapes, yielding a sweet honeyed nectar that's capable of ageing for one hundred years or more. Made with 80% Semillon and 20% Sauvignon, it offers notes of peach, mango and pineapple flavours in a rich texture with hints of chamomile tea and dried herbs. Smoky notes with white pepper spice mingle with balanced acidity in the appealing finish. Great value for Sauternes of this calibre.
Roumieu Sauternes
$49.99
It's amazing to think what a little havoc in the vineyard can create. Sauternes are made from grapes that get shriveled by an unusual fungus. Not to worry - the grapes are bursting with sweetness and flavor, resulting in this famous desert wine. Made with 80% Semillon and 20% Sauvignon Blanc, it's gorgeous with apricot and marmalade notes. Well balanced. Not cloying at all. Brilliant with,or for desert.
