2006 Zuccardi Bonarda
$13.50

It's Bonarda! The most widely planted red grape variety in Argentina. Otherwise known as Charbono if you're in California. Clean and pure, exotic and rich. Full of wild berries, black cherry, and rich spice, this powerhouse wine lingers on the finish with a well-integrated mouth-feel and structure. Big and fruit-forward, this wine will appeal to even the most die-hard Cabernet drinker. A sumptuously exotic wine that bears the unmistakable stamp of the region. 



2007 Herve Azo Chablis Vau de Vey $27.90

From a top notch vintner in a top notch vintage, this is a stunning example of what Premier Cru Chablis has to offer. Vau de Vey, one of the lesser known premier cru vineyards, this shows excellent richness, focus and flavor you won't soon forget. Crisp, precise and flinty! It is both fleshy and
full while retaining a solid mineral core and zesty acidity. Versatile, it will match well with all seafood and poultry as well as with stronger cheese such as Gruyère or Comté.

 


2007 Domaine du Chene Condrieu
56.97

Condrieu is quite simply one the most sublime wines produced anywhere in the world. It is the home of Viognier and makes wines of extraordinary depth, concentration and flavor. It is a truly great wine and a must have for any serious white wine drinker. Gold in color with a slight green glint.  A powerful nose with plenty of perfumed apricot, pine needles, and a wonderful candied finish. Intensely interesting with an elegant finish. Experience the full potential of Viognier!
