|
One year ago Mother Nature surprised us with a late-October snowstorm in New York. This year it's Hurricane Sandy that passed through our neighborhood just before Halloween! Our best wishes go out to all who are dealing with the aftermath of the storm. We're hoping the balance of November will bring us more pleasant fall weather to go along with the excitement of the presidential election and the celebration of our great American holiday, Thanksgiving! Why not celebrate this November with a new set of Wine Gems of the Month? From South Africa to Argentina, California to France, we've selected these outstanding new wines from all across the globe! Our November wine gems include two whites and two reds from around the world of wines:
* a crisp and refreshing Sauvignon Blanc from the Darling region on the cool west coast of South Africa
* a beautiful unoaked 50-50 blend of Chardonnay and Viognier from the San Juan region of Argentina
* our perennial favorite California Zinfandel from the master of Zin, Joel Gott!
* a gorgeous expression of Gamay from the Morgon appellation of Beaujolais, rated 91 points by Steve Tanzer!

In addition to our 4 wine gems of the month, here are 3 other wines we highly recommend:
Celler el Masroig Les Sorts Rosat 2010 is a dry rosé blend of Grenache and Carignan from Spain that's perfect for autumn quaffing!
Hardin Cabernet Sauvignon 2010 has arrived and it's awesome! The 2009 Hardin Cab was one of our top-selling reds until we sold out. The new 2010 vintage carries on as our favorite Napa Cab for the money!
Our latest Pinot Noir discovery came from a September tasting trip to Healdsburg. See below for more about Holdredge Pinot Noir Russian River Valley 2010
