Our Easter Wine Selections
Groth Sauvignon Blanc - A Napa classic, this Sauv Blanc has a great melon and citrus character in the aroma and in the flavor. The cooler Napa Valley fruit provides a solid, crisp backbone that gives the wine an exciting liveliness that balances the rich creaminess.
Schloss Walhaussen Riesling Kabinett - This may be the most balanced Riesling I've had in years. The initial combination of sweetness and acidity refreshes the palate in only the way a great German Riesling can. Lush apricot, plum and nectar welcome you into a refreshing mineral finish along with just a touch of lime zest. I love it! Great with Glazed Ham.
Joseph Drouhin Cotes de Beaune Villages - 100% Pinot Noir from the region of Beaune in Burgundy, France. It has a nice purple hue. The nose has pretty and delicate flavors of red berries. It is a wonderful example of Burgundy Pinot Noir at a great price. A classic match with roasted leg of lamb.
Domaine le Garrignon Cotes du Rhone Villages - From the heralded 2007 Rhone vintage! Racy and fresh, with a streak of sandalwood running through the perfumed black cherry, plum and garrigue notes. There's nice minerally drive on the finish.
Luigi Bosca Malbec DOC "Luyan de Cuyo" - The DOC "Luján de Cuyo" was created in 1989 with the objective of protecting and regulating the farming and production techniques of the Malbec varietal. This single vineyard malbec is everything that I love about Argentine wines. It shows an intense violet color and ripe cherry and plum aromas. Spiced, with hints of mocha and blackberries, this is a delicately perfumed wine with elegant sweetness.
