White & Blush
Canaletto Muller-Thurgau
This is a fun wine from the very far
northern reaches of Italy, in the
foothills of the Alps.
It has so much more depth and
sophistication than Pinot Grigio, with a
very pleasing hint of minerality and
citrus fruit.
A great wine for aperitifs.
Legado Torrontes
A great example of this dry, aromatic,
and floral white from Argentina.
The Torrontes grape was imported
from Spain hundreds of years ago, and
flourishes in Argentina’s dry upland
climate.
Sterling Napa
Chardonnay
Ripe pear and apple flavors are
predominate in this all-Napa Chardonnay,
with hints of caramel, toast, and nutmeg
underneath.
Sterling’s upper-tier Chard is on
sale this month, and this is a great
bottle to take home.
Murphy’s Law Rosé
Unfortunately, we’re at the end of rosé
season – we’ve only got a half-dozen
bottles of this left.
It’s a great outdoor grilling
wine, with lots of full red-wine flavor
notes married with a low-tannin, crisp,
and mellow rosé mouth feel.
Red &
Sparkling
Toasted Head Reserve Pinot Noir
These grapes are sourced from the Sonoma
Coast region, which is the coolest part
of the county – a zone eminently suited
for Pinot Noir, which produces excellent
fruit in those conditions.
Just a bit of oak in this, for a
hint of earthiness on the finish.
6th
Sense Syrah
From the team behind Petite Petit and 7
Deadly Zins, this is a complex and
well-balanced Syrah.
The nose has tobacco and earth
notes, which lead into black cherry and
blackberry flavors.
It finishes with just a hint of
spice, making this perfect for grilled
lamb.
Douglas
Hill Cabernet Sauvignon
A moderately-full bodied Cabernet, with
characteristic dark-fruit and spice
aromas and flavors.
This is well-oaked and is full
throughout the palate.
Bogle Petite Sirah
Bogle’s Petite Sirah is relatively mild
and creamy for this hearty grape.
It is fully extracted and has the
characteristic spice notes, but without
as much tannin as most other Petite
Sirahs.
