Champagne & Cherry Pie
90 points Wine Spectator: "The citrus, gingerbread and mineral notes are underscored by a creamy texture in this suave, elegant Champagne. Turns more focused as the suppleness gives way to a dry, chalky sensation. Fine length.Clear and bright with a salmon pink brilliance. The nose displays a predomination of red berries -raspberries and wild strawberries. This champagne is well balanced, light and vivacious, and deliciously fruity on the palate. Demoiselle Rosé is a light, airy champagne. It is perfect with fish dishes and tempting with red fruit, zabaglione, chocolate mousse or The Fireworks. This is the number one selling Champagne in France.
Please try it this Friday.

2010 Stanly Ranch Cherry Pie Pinot Noir - $49 "The nose is redolent of dark Bing cherries, hints of black and white pepper on meat roasting in a wood oven, memories of English plum pudding steaming at Christmas, a touch of saddle leather, warm spice and tobacco at a distance. The nose continues to build and unfold with hints of violets and Portobello mushrooms blackberries, minerals and sweet earth." "The flavors are very concentrated, after some time in the glass, they open up to show beautiful balance and sophistication, and an elegant, silky texture. Dark and intense fruit carries all through the palette, the finish then lingers uncovering a wisp of anise, blackberry honey, and golden pastry roasting in the oven...Cherry Pie." This will go quickly. First come, first served.
