Parxet Cuvee 21 Brut Cava
This little number is full, smooth and intense. Hints of white pepper, basil, tarragon and pear are accompanied by a clean mineral finish, supported by fine persistent bubbles. Cuvee 21 fervently explodes in the mouth, in taste and texture. Let’s get this party started. $13.99

Castelmaure 2007 Corbieres

With a deep ruby color and layers of ripe fruit- blueberry, raspberry, and black cherry followed by  notes of pepper, spices and herbs, this wine is complex, and well integrated. Medium bodied and a silky, smooth finish makes for a sexy steal of a deal. Just for you. $12.99

 

Wednesday 9 Dec

Mil Piedras 2008 Viognier

aromas of honeysuckle and peach. Fresh and crisp, with tastes of tart green apple. 100% Viognier. This is a lovely wine that goes well with any dish but can stand alone like a champ. $10.99

Mil Piedras  2007 Malbec

This Malbec is a deeply colored wine with an expressive nose of plum, vanilla and blackberry. A rich, round mouth feel defines the palate in the form of blackberry jam, sour cherry and spice notes. $10.99

Thursday 10 Dec

Kiona Riesling 2008
Floral peach aroma with a crisp, refreshing finish. Contains a hint of residual sugar. Excellent food wine. Whistle clean, floral, spicy aromas with luscious mouth filling flavors are the trademark of well made Northwest Rieslings. They had me at peach. $10.99


Moillard Cotes Du Rhone “Les Violettes” 2007

Clear, dark ruby with reddish-violet glints. Fresh and ripe plums and tart black-raspberry fruit with zippy acidity to make it a winner at the dinner table. A nicely balanced food wine. $11.99

Weds December 2

Los Cardos Cabernet Sauvignon: A classic Argentinian cabernet with rich plum and cassis flavors and herbs on the finish. Great value! $9.99

Carlos Basso “Dos Fincas” Cabernet-Malbec: From one of our longtime favorite Argentinian producers - the family is originally from Italy - this is aged in new oak, which lends toasty vanilla notes that are a great complement to the smooth ripe berry flavors. Easy to love! $11.99

Thurs December 3

De Tarczal Marzemino di Isera: So the grape on this wine is called Marzemino. We know, we’d never heard of it either. Grown in volcanic soil, it produces a bright, lighter-bodied wine, with wild berries, minerals and a hint of violets on the finish. (According to the internets, this grape was Mozart’s favorite!) $15.99

Arcangelo Salice Salentino: Hailing from Puglia in Italy’s boot, this is a blend of 80% Negroamaro and 20% Primitivo. It’s got deep plum flavors and a hint of pepper and cinnamon. Dark, concentrated, sexy, and delicious.  $13.99

Airlie Gewurtztraminer 2006

 This dry Gewürztraminer is loaded with pear and apple and has a long lingering finish with great viscosity and notes of passion fruit. The literal translation means "spice grapes". Beautiful. $13.99

Tiera Merlot 2007 

Grab this while you can and enjoy it's strong notes of wet earth, saddle leather, dust and dark chocolate on the nose. Light on the attack, the wine expands on the mid-palate and shows its true power on the finish with dark red fruit flavors. $15.99

 

Thursday 5 November 2009 5-8pm
