:::  WHITE  :::  
2012 SAURON RUEDA (Spain)       

Pale pistachio in colour with greenish hints. Bouquet with a notable variety of hints of fennel and mint, flowers and tropical fruit base.
      
 
2012 VRAI CAILLOU BORDEAUX BLANC (France)

Good-value, high-quality Bordeaux made from Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and 10% Muscadelle.  Bright and fresh, perfect for a summer afternoon.  
 
AFFINITY:  Crab Cakes! 

2012 VALLOBERA RIOJA BLANC (Spain)

Impressive find for the mixed case, a white Rioja!  "Pinot Grigio with a brain", this is 100% Viura:  floral, citrus.  
  

 AFFINITY: "City ShellFish"  (get it at our sister store)  

2010 SEA MIST RRV CHARDONNAY (CA)

From the top Russian River Valley area, this is a steal.  Appealing nose of flowers and honeysuckle. Nice weight and roundness in the mouth, accompanied by notes of melon, apple and a hint of pineapple that lingers  $18 at other Denver stores; $12 by the case @ CityWine.

AFFINITY:  Hawaiian Roasted Pork  
  

2010 SAN SILVESTRO ROERO ARNEIS (Italy)    
We were excited to find this "late add" from Piedmont, Italy.   An array of flowers and fruit, with camomile and apricots featuring. Long and delicate, with good structure.  Very pretty and distinct. 
 
AFFINITY:  Risotto

Ya just never know what we'll come up with ;) 

 

 

:::  RED  :::

2011 DOMAINE ST. JACQUES D'ALBAS
 (France)   
One of the best-value reds tasted from the Minervois in a while.  A lovely blend of Syrah, Grenache and Mourvedre, this is a forward open style designed for earlier drinking with appealing spiced plum fruit flavours. Gentle round tannins provide good depth on the finish.
  
AFFINITY:  Grilled Meats or Portabello, depending on your orientation ;) 
 
2009 DAMALISCO TORO ROBLE  (Spain)

Talking about "over-deliver".  100% Tempranillo from the great Toro region.  A Decanter award-winner, this has a peppery/mineral nose that opens up, and a full, generous amount of sweet fruit.  Sings with some air.  Wonderful QPR.  
 
    
AFFINITY: Loin Lamb Chops, yum  
 

2009 CANTELE SALICE SALENTINO 

(Italy) 

Gambero Rosso "3 Bicchieri" (3 Glasses) winner AND their pick for the Best Value Wine of 2013.  Cherries, herbs, smoke, what's not to like?  100% Negroamaro - a common, thick-skinned varietal grown throughout Puglia.

                

     AFFINITY:  Grilled Sausages would work    

2011 Tilia Merlot (Chile)

 

OK, it's tacky that the Robert Parker "91" rating is splattered all over the place (show-offs!), but I got over it because the wine TASTES SO GOOD.   Here is what the man says:  "The 2011 Tilia Merlot undergoes a 20-day skin maceration and is aged in oak for six to nine months. It has a lovely nose, one of the best I have found for this varietal, with vibrant dark cherry, black plum and mineral notes. The palate is well-balanced with fine tannins. It is very pure, with crisp dark plum, tar and a savory edge on the finish. This is how Argentinean Merlot should be done. Superb."  

 

AFFINITY:   Grilled Chicken and Veggie Kabobs       

 

2012 ABRAZO GARNACHA (Spain)  

 

A dry and soft cherry colored red wine. The bouquet is reminiscent of black cherry's, raspberry, with hints of truffles. The balancing acid gives the wine a good structure and a long finish. Fresh and quaffable, and a gold medal winner in LA. 

   

   AFFINITY:   Pizza, Burgers, all-of-that-stuff
