"In keeping with tradition, our 2007 Anthology blend includes all five Bordeaux varieties to create an elegant, rich, and approachable wine reminiscent of a warm berry pie. This wine delivers a spiced-laden bouquet of berries, violets and vanilla. Juicy and unctuous, the fruity and floral flavors blossom with time in the glass, and finish with an exotic spiciness that will leave you wanting another glass. This wine benefits from decanting and continues evolving over the course of a meal and into a good movie"
-Mike McGrath, Winemaker

  • 2010 Tablas Creek Vineyard, Patelin de Tablas, Rouge, Paso Robles, 91 pts., Wine Spectator Smart Buy; $21.00: The 2010 Patelin de Tablas marries the spice, mineral and structure of Syrah with the generous fruit of Grenache, the backbone of Mourvedre and the brightness of Counoise. Drink it now or over the next decade.
  • 2009 Fess Parker, Syrah, Santa Barbara County, 92 pts., Wine Enthusiast; $25.00: "Run, don't walk, to get this wine. It's wildly good for the price, offering powerful yet controlled black cherry, tea, bacon and black pepper flavors that are wrapped into smooth tannins."  - Wine Enthusiast
  • 2009 Flora Springs, Merlot, Napa Valley, Was $24.00, Now $18.00: From their website: "Our Napa Valley Merlot has always been a favorite for those who want to open and enjoy a soft, supple red wine right away, without waiting! We blend our exuberant "born ready" Merlot with Malbec, which adds a hint of raspberry and spice to the full fruit characteristics of strawberry and cherry. Our 2009 vintage will delight your palate."  
  • 2007 Merryvale, Merlot, Napa Valley, 91 pts., Parker; Was $48.00, Now $39.00: Shows aromas of bright red plum, baked red cherry tart, mineral/slate, caramel, cedar, tobacco and bittersweet chocolate. The mouthfeel is broad and generous with fine tannins supporting the fruit.
  • 2008 Plumpjack, Merlot, Napa Valley, 91+pts., Parker; $60.00: Primary aromas of baked plums, cardamom, mulling spices and blackberry are followed by secondary aromas of chocolate, vanilla beans and warm fudge. In the mouth, primary flavors of berry cobbler, plums and cocoa are followed by secondary flavors of herbs de provance, cedar and cigar smoke. 
  • 2008 Grgich Hills, Zinfandel, Estate Grown, Napa Valley, 91 pts., Wine & Spirits; $35.00: Winemaker Notes: We co-fermented the Zinfandel with a touch of Petite Sirah to add complexity and structure and then aged the wine in large oak casks so the flavors are well integrated but not overwhelmed by oak. Pure Zinfandel flavors of strawberries, raspberries and a hint of dried sage make this wine the perfect match for grilled steak, smoked brisket and pasta or pizza topped with tomato sauce.
  • 2009 Seghesio Family, Zinfandel, Rockpile, Dry Creek Vineyard, 90 pts., Wine Spectator; $39.50: Barrel-aged for 15 months in 85% French and 15% American oak (25% new), this displays captivating aromas of spice box and red fruit along with intense flavors of currant, candied apple and Zinfandel's briary essence. This has the bookends of delicious wine, with a soft entry and focused acidity on the extremely long finish.
  • 2009 Hartford, Zinfandel, Highwire Vineyard, Russian River Valley, 95 pts., $56.00: Consistently distinctive cracked white pepper nuances differentiate the Highwire single-vineyard Zinfandel from our other Zinfandel bottlings. Concentrated wild blackberry and boysenberry fruit flavors complement white pepper, nutmeg and allspice notes in this sought after single vineyard Zinfandel.
  • 2009 Continuum, Proprietary Red, Napa Valley, 94 pts., Parker; $180.00: "The 2009 Continuum comes across as much more understated next to the 2008. It has plenty of silkiness and finesse, but less of the size and shape of its older sibling. Dark cherries, espresso, exotic spices and licorice are woven together in a fabric of notable elegance and harmony. The 2009 Continuum is 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Cabernet Franc, 7% Petit Verdot and 4% Merlot, 82% of which came from estate-grown fruit. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024."

For Your Appreciation: Thank You!


Pay one penny for one bottle of Chateau Bonnet, Bordeaux Blanc or Rouge upon spending over $100.00 on any wine purchase. Normal price is $14.00 per bottle.  

 

The vineyards of Chateau Bonnet were planted during the 16th century, by the Reynier family, wealthy merchants from Libourne. In a mere 30 years, the landscape around the house was transformed, as vines replaced forest on the surrounding slopes. Château Bonnet lies to the North of the Entre-Deux-Mers, on the clay-chalk slopes of the commune of Grézillac, overlooking the Dordogne valley some 10km south of Saint Emilion. The estate dates back to the 17th century; when André Lurton took over in 1956, it comprised 30 hectares of vineyard, which he immediately undertook to renovate and develop.  

 

Normal retail price is $14.00 per bottle, but you only pay 1 penny upon spending $100 on any wine purchase.

 

Limit one wine purchase per family per day.

 

Thank you for your business!

 

Village Wine Cellar - Where we keep our entire store at a constant 64 degrees
 
From Parker's Wine Buyers Guide No 7 by Robert M. Parker, Jr.  is this quote from the introduction, How to Store Wine, page 9:
 
"If you can somehow get the temperature down to 65 degrees Farenheight or below, you will never have to worry about the condition of your wines."

Here at the Village Wine Cellar we proudly keep  we proudly keep our ENTIRE store a constant "64 degrees temperature controlled," 365 days a year, hence Village Wine Cellar. 

This separates our store from all others as temperature is vital to the keeping wine from being spoiled.  Proper storage is crucial to keeping the wine's integrity and quality from being compromised.  As you are aware,  all too often, someone has purchased a bottle of wine elsewhere only to find that their purchase is ruined due to the store temperature was too warm.  This will never happen at Village Wine Cellar.
