Pares Balta Blanc du Pacs $14

We pour this Spanish white every year or so in order to remind everybody (and ourselves) how terrific it is!

From the grapes one finds in sparkling Cava (Macabeo, Parellada and Xarello) but vinified as still wine.

The new label has a bright yellow B on it to make it easy to spot from 100 yards, plus it's all organically farmed.

It makes everything taste better and is perfect to share with friends that just happen to stop by to visit.

Perrin Reserve Cotes du Rhone Rouge $12
perrin reserve lable

A new classic from the younger generation of Perrin winemakers, this lovely table red shares the lineage of the legendary Chateau de Beaucastel. We've stocked this for years and it can tend to be overlooked.
We cracked one recently and it truly is a brilliant wine and an outstanding value. Primarily Grenache with 20% Syrah, this is a lush table red, with aromas of ripe red berries and a hint of pepper.

Shafer Merlot $50
Shafer Merlot 2006

Another wine from our Hall of Fame.
This sustainably farmed gem from Napa is one of our favorite California wines - Ever.

"It's a wine that pairs so well with food, it makes me hungry just tasting it," says Winemaker Elias Fernandez.

The Shafer family's commitment to susatinable agriculture and "ne plus ultra" quality control results in a very special red wine experience.

The $50 price tag puts it up there in the special occassion catagory - at least for now.

But it delivers an experience that is very hard to put a price on. Doug Shafer and his family have been producing this wine year after year and setting the bar so high that is has become a genuine benchmark for others to strive for. Please stop in on Friday and try it.

We really appreciate all of the comments and kind words and of course it is your support that makes it all possible. Thank you.

Please Join Us - it's fun, informal, and a great way to start your weekend.
