White Wines
Prosecco Special Cuvee Brut
Veneto, Italy
The nose is yeasty with moderate
richness and enough apple and citrus to register. The palate features
green melon apple and toast while the finish is mildly yeasty and
fairly full. Satisfying as it fills the mouth.
Pacific Rim Dry Riesling
Washington, ‘06
This unique wine captures the very
fine jasmine and crackling, malic Granny Smith apple aromatics that
make great riesling so vibrant
Chateau Grand Traverse Riesling
Washington, ‘06
This expressive white wine is
crisp, fruity and fresh. Its assertive and clean style is an
ideal match for most seafood, shellfish, or delicate cream sauce
entrees. Delicate flavors of apple, pear and citrus are matched with a
vibrant steely-dry finish.
Ca’Bolani Pinot Grigio
Friuli, Italy, '06
Light bodied with lots of peach
and pear flavors with a hint of almonds. Very fresh and well
balance
Tohu Sauvignon Blanc
Marlborogh, New Zealand, ‘06
Medium bodied with aromas of
flowers and passion fruit, with zingy citrus
flavors
Heron Chardonnay
California, ‘06
Soulful and balanced with bright
citrus and pear flavors, this wine doesn't go through malolactic
fermentation and sees very little new oak, creating a wine that is
crisp and refreshing
Steele Cuvee Chardonnay
Kelseyville, California, ‘06
The Cuvee consistently exhibits
excellent depth of flavor, wonderful acidity and complex aromas. The
hallmark of this wine - it is so seamlessly layered and well integrated
that it makes you want to have another glass without a second
thought.
J. Lohr White Riesling
Arroyo Seco, California
The vines are grown in Chualar
loam soils underlain by stones deposited from the Arroyo Seco. The
winds of the Salinas Valley extended the growing season and the fruit
retained the natural grape acids
Casa Lapostolle Sauvignon Blanc
Chile, South America
Rich nose with a floral scent and
notes of tropical fruits mixed with flinty mineral notes. The palate is
fresh, showing a juicy, rounded, well-balanced mouthfeel
Madroņa Dry Reisling
El Dorado County, CA
The wine is delightfully
intriguing with classic Riesling characters and a full-bodied palate to
which many aspire. The nose is all Riesling, loaded with rich honey and
gooseberry characters..
Red Wines
Draconis French Oak Zinfandel
Lodi, California
Lodi Petite Sirah, classic style.
Dark, teeth staining - this wine is full of chocolate and really,
really smooth. All grapes are from 50 to 60 year-old vines. Only 40
cases made.
Domaine Chandon Pinot Meunier
Napa, California
The Domaine Chandon Pinot Meunier
is cherry red with blood plum hues. Intriguing aromas of brown spice,
nutmeg, truffle and smoked meats overlay notes of red currant and
cassis. The palate is soft, long and complex. Flavors of plum and
cherry complement a lusciously sweet and spicy balance

classic three-way of wine lush cherry, licorice, toasty oak…
Madroņa Cabernet Franc
El Dorado County, CA
Deep, dark intense berry fruit explodes in my senses, a bit of a leap
from the elegant, delicate characters I had come to expect. Black
cherry, plum and ripe blueberry fruit leap out with subtle hints of
coffee. Add to this a sprinkling of classic Cab Franc clove, nutmeg and
anise spice, and this is a nose to behold.
diVittorio Syrah
Camino, California
The region now crushes almost three times more Syrah than Napa and
Sonoma combined but has not yet been recognized for the efforts.
La Playa Carmenere
Chile,
‘05
Soft and redolent of red currant
flavors, the La Playa Carmenere Reserve nicely emulates Bordeaux
elegance; ready-to-serve, this would be a nice choice with pan-fried
chicken breast in a wine sauce.
Monte Antico Toscano
Italy, 03
This Sangiovese is the result of
two top wine specialists Neil Empsom and Franco Bernabei.
Full body and lush with a fruity flavor.

complexity

this wine from the Piedmont region of Italy
