from the cellar: At the Wine Bar! Sun Singer offers more than 30 wines by the glass every day of the week. Here's a sampling of this week's selections at the Sun Singer Wine Bar.

WINE FEATURE
The majority of this hedonistic beauty, the Cuvée Christine, is from warmer and rockier sites east of the Russian River Valley. Fermented with less stems (about 30%), and aged for one year in more new oak (about 70%) than most wines, this tasty drop is ready to rip but will reward as much patience as you are willing to give. PAX Cuvee Christine 2007 North Coast, California
Dark purple core with a ruby hue, black raspberry andblackberry dominate the Cuvee Christine with underlying notes of bramble, fennel and black cardamom. Waves of rich, thick, juicy fruit stroke the palate, marked by a bright, fresh and crystal clean finish, thanks to last year's cooler, extended growing season.
2 oz. $6.00 5 oz. $12.25 bottle $47

winter rocks: More Winter Warmers
With the onset of winter, the brewer's mind turns to providing warmth. And there's nothing better than snuggling up in front of the fire with a few of these brews for company.

PYRAMID Sno Cap Deep mahogany in color, our full-bodied winter warmer is brewed in the spirit of British winter ales. Crafted with a flurry of roasted chocolate and caramel malts, and generously hopped, it delivers a smooth finish that makes this beer the perfect cold weather companion.
SOUTHERN TIER Old Man Winter a rich and complex amalgam of hops and barley that will put the feeling back in your toes and lift your spirits above the snow. OMW throws a deep and inviting hue with a thickness that clings to the glass and the warmth of an open flame. Because of its high alcohol content, Old Man is a heady brew that encourages sipping and pondering its essential richness. Drink it fresh now, or cellar a few bottles to see how this old man becomes wiser with age.
'Tis the season for beer, what's your brew tonight?
