Whites

 

(Loire/France) Chateau de Monfort Vouvray Demi Sec 2011

Reg $18 Now $9.99 Save 45%

This is a tasty Chenin Blanc offering off-dry flavors of tangy orange, lemon zest and mineral notes, rich soft textured mid palate with a nice luscious fruit driven finish. Drink now.

 

(California) 75 Wine Co North Coast Sauvignon Blanc 2012

Reg. $14.99   Now $9.99 Save 33%

The two clones of Sauvignon Blanc grapes that make up this delicious 2012 Sauvignon Blanc combine beautifully to create both a nose and pallet that are simply irresistible. 90% of the wine is comprised of Clone 1 Sauvignon Blanc, which imparts aromas of white peach, wet slate and green apple. The addition of 10% Musquee clone Sauvignon Blanc both broadens the mid palate and imparts gentle aromas of paraffin and green banana. The flavors hearken more to Sauvignon Blanc's French forerunners from the Loire. The flavors are a blend of wet shale, key-lime curd, fig, and canary melon, ending with a touch of fluer de sel on the backside. The crisp finish is pleasantly acidic and has a great cut to it, making this a perfect accompaniment to oysters, a soft goat cheese, or prosciutto wrapped honeydew. Nice summer white. Drink now to 2016.

 

(California) Gallo Signature Sonoma Chardonnay 2012
Reg. $29.99    15% off mix 6 $25.49
20% off mix 12 $23.99 

Robert Parker 90 Points "The Signature Series 2012 Chardonnay from their two-block vineyard on the Sonoma Coast in the Petaluma Wind Gap, reminds me of a solid, premier cru Chablis. Very steely, delicate, white peach, brioche, delicate honey and wet stones jump from the glass of this fresh, medium-bodied, but intense, flavorful Chardonnay. The wine was aged 35% in stainless steel tanks, 40% in concrete eggs and 25% in new and used French oak. Malolactic was blocked, thus giving it a zesty, high-acid minerally character. Alcohol is modest as well at 13.9%. This is a beauty.90 Points Wine Advocate"

 

 

Reds

 

(California) Chateau Souverain North Coast Red Blend 2012

Reg. $14.99 Now $9.99 Save 33%

This Sonoma winery produces quality wines at bargain prices. This tasty proprietary red blend offers layers of bright fruit flavors such as blackberry and boysenberry complimented by notes of warm vanilla and baking spices. The lush mouthfeel is rich and juicy. The wine if flavorful, well-structured and offers a lengthy, flavorful finish. Drink now to 2017.

 

(California) Cigar Old Vine Zinfandel 2011

Reg.14.99 Now $11.99 Save 20%

The 2011 Cigar Zin is a fantastic value! It has notes of deep black fruit, a punch of spice and crushed black pepper on the nose. The rich, lush and well-structured wine is hearty with exotic fruit characteristics. We prepared the wine in French (50%) and American (50%) oak barrels for 11 months. Blend: 90% Zinfandel, 5% Petite Sirah, 5% Syrah Drink now to 2017.

 

(Chile) Montes Alpha Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Reg. $21.99 Now $14.99 save 32%

Wine Spectator 88 Points "Offers a shot of green spice to the dark cherry and roasted plum flavors. Tarragon, licorice and dark chocolate notes flood the powerfully tannic finish. Drink now through 2017." RHWB - this is a fantastic full bodied ripe Cab with nice spicebox complexity and long fine tannin finish. 1-2 years in the cellar and this will smooth out nicely.

 

(California) Gallo Signature Napa Cabernet Sauvignon 2012
Reg. $37.99  15% off mix 6 $32.29 33% off mix 12 $25.49
Robert Parker 92 Points "The Signature Series 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon comes from two estate vineyards they own: the famous Monte Rosso Vineyard and the William Hill Estate Vineyard. This is a cross-valley blend of both Napa and Sonoma fruit. It's 97% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Petit Verdot aged 20 months in 60% new oak (40% was French and 20% American) and 40% used barrels. A good wine with 15.3% natural alcohol, it is full-bodied with a dense, ruby/purple color, lots of asphalt, loamy volcanic soil and smoky notes, blueberry and blackberry fruit, a nice touch of camphor and a luscious, heady, slightly tannic mouthfeel and finish. This is serious wine and they produced 5,180 cases. It should age well for 15-20 years." The mix 12 price here is ridiculous for a Napa cab of this quality. Don't miss it.
