Gary's Pick of the Month:
Kunde Estates Chardonnay $12.99
Slightly oaked with nice cinnamon, ripe pear and bread dough aromas.
Kaitlyn's Pick of the Month:
Cristalino Brut Cava $9.99
A great pick for an inexpensive Cava - slight citrus notes with some yeasty aromas.
Justin's Pick of the Month:
Matane Primativo $10.99
Primativo (a.k.a.Zinfandel) is so names because it ripens early. This is a fun little wine is full of plum and vanilla flavors, but it's not too fussy. Just a great littel wine perfect for summer barbecues.
MC's Pick of the Month:
Chateau Lamothe Bordeaux Blanc $14.99
MC has chosen one of our best-selling Summer whites as his pick of the month (so he'll never hear the end of it if his pick doesn't sell the most). This one is a total crowd-pleaser! 40% Sauvignon Blanc as well as 40% Semillon and 20% Muscadelle make the Lamothe bright and citrusy with luscious ripe fruit overtones. PERFECT patio wine!
James' Pick of the Month:
Boulevard 'Smokestack Series' Two Jokers Double Wit $8.99 (750ml)
(from the brewery)
Two Jokers has a refreshing tartness, nicely balanced by a well rounded malt bill graced by notes of caramel. Belgian yeast brings floral aromas with hints of banana and clove, and a citrusy zing to the tongue. Two Jokers Double-Wit pairs well with the lighter fare of spring and summer, such as grilled fish or chicken, feta cheese, fresh garden salads, and fruit compotes. Look closely now: is it two jesters on the label, or a single beautiful glass of beer?
Ryan's Pick of the Month:
Reyka Vodka $23.99
Distilled from grain and filtered through lava rocks for an exceedingly pure, clean taste. Reyka is Icelandic for "steam" - a fitting name since the distillery is powered by geothermal. Pretty 'cool' huh?
Adam's Pick of the Month:
Belvedere Black Raspberry Vodka $29.99
Adam looked to Poland for his pick - and this one is sure to please. Just like straight Belvedere Vodka,this one is made from 100% Polish Dankowsi rye for s clean, slightly spiced taste. This top-notch vodka is then mixed with macerated (read: REAL) Black Raspberries, lending the vodka a pleasing background flavor of real fruit. Try it on the rocks to really appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into this vodka!
Tim's Pick of the Month:
Domaine de Canton $32.99
Just-arrived in St. Louis,
Domaine de Canton is a liqueur made from V.S.O.P. and X.O. Grand Champagne Cognacs blended with the essence of baby ginger and background flavors of Tahitian Vanilla Bean and Provencal Honey. Perfectly balanced. Handmade without any artificial color or preservatives. Try it this way: 3 parts Hendrick's Gin + 2 parts Domaine de Canton shaken with ice. Ask Tim for a FREE taste! This will be your new Summertime drink. You're welcome.
