Staete Landt, Chardonnay, Marlborough, N.Z
 

This has produced a complex yet subtle wine that has an intense, ripe nectarine, leesy aroma overlaying a creamy almond, vanilla character, rather than overt fruitiness. This is a full bodied and elegant wine, with a dry and crisp finish. $21.49

Staete Landt, Pinot Noir, Marlborough, N.Z
 

The 2006 Staete Landt Pinot Noir beautifully expresses the terroir of the clay-layered soils in the Staete Landt vineyard. The wine is elegant and multi-layered, complex with powerful spicy fruit driven tannins. The attractive aromas show strawberries and ripe black cherries with violets and a lovely earthy complexity. $28.99

Alpha Domus, “The Navigator”, Hawkes Bay, N.Z
 

Hawke's Bay on New Zealand's North Island is proving a fabulous source of New World Bordeaux blends. This offering is redolent with fresh cassis aromas with a herbaceous edge and a hint of menthol. The palate is smooth, ripe, and generous with substantial weight of fruit and structure. Delicious. Decanter Magazine, June 2007 $25.29

Moshin, Pinot Noir
Sonoma, California
 

Big and luscious, spicy and bold. Bright cherry, pomegranate, coco and spice. Dried cranberry and earth flavors. Firm tannins and great acidity will hold up well to time and many foods.  Only 1175cases produced.  $26.79

Educated Guess, Napa, Cabernet Sauvignon, 2005
 

Rich, ripe and focused with juicy blackberry and boysenberry fruit, all tied together with a creamy French vanilla middle and a lingering finish. $21.49

Top

Twenty Bench, Cabernet Sauvignon,

Napa, California
 

Sweet big black fruit aromas that are expansive in the mouth and evocative of blackberries, licorice, chocolate covered cherries and cocoa powder. Slightly higher ripeness than past vintages with integrated tannins that balance nicely with the sweet toasty oak. Distinctive character, with rich palate coating textures and lots of layers and depth - this is a benchmark Napa Valley Cabernet! $24.99

Top

Green & Red, Zinfindel
Napa, California
 

Aromas of black berries and roasted anise followed by flavors of cracked pepper and black cherry. Goes well with garlic and herb crusted rack of lamb. $26.29

Justin Vineyards “Justification” 2006
 

Aromas of raspberry, blackberry and light earthy characters make up the nose of this Bordeaux blend. The entry is soft, supple and rich with red & black fruit. Slightly dusty, yet round tannin from the Cabernet Franc combine With bright acidity and fruit from the Merlot, to make this wine balanced and seamless from start to finish. $49.99
