2006
Andrew Rich vin de Tabula Rasa $19.99
A country French style
Rhone blend of Syrah, Counoise, Grenache, and Mourvedre.
Soft texture, with floral aromatics, ripe red-fruit
flavors, and a hint of leather and earth. A great
value!
|
2008
Tariquet Sauvignon $9.99
Intense yet fine floral notes on the palate. A dominate
sense of ripened grain with a hint of minerals on
the finish. Serve with a variety of cheeses, salads,
chicken or fish.
|
2006
Domaine Des Nugues Beaujolais-Villages $14.99!
The wines
made here are never artificially adjusted and are
richer and denser that many Cru Beaujolais. As keeping
with the finest tradition, all fruit is hand-harvested
and whole-cluster vinified. Tasting of only the pure
fruit flavors of unadulterated Beaujolais, they evolve
beautifully with bottle age. This is serious Gamay!
|
2006
Boarding Pass Shiraz $18.99
Full-bodied
with hints of pepper and dark fruit dominate the palate.
Smooth, silky tannins lead to an incredible and lengthy
finish. This is great Australian Shiraz!
|
2008
Le Pigeoulet en Provence $13.99
Le Pigeoulet
is a blend of 80% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 5% Cinsault
and 5% Carignan. A wine at once fresh, fruity, rich
and elegant, with dominant aromas of liquorice, black
fruit and garrigue herbs, it makes a good match for
very simple as well as more complex dishes.

2007
Kermit Lynch Côtes du Rhône $13.99
In has
a vivid purple color. The aroma is so pretty and assertive
that it is a bit of a shock in a simple Côtes
du Rhône. Fruit aromas like plum and blackberry
dominate, with suggestions of black pepper. It’s
full-bodied, but perhaps not in the usual sense of
the term: there is no hard, vulgar tannin, nor does
its gut hang out over its belt buckle. Intense might
be a more appropriate word than full bodied.

|
2008
Boxhead Cabernet Sauvignon $10.99
This is
a full bodied wine deep purple in color, which shows
hints of herbaceous cabernet combined with rich fruits
of ripe raspberry and currant. The palate is equally
rich, with intense red fruit, herbaceous mint and
smoky oak combined with strong tannin structure, balanced
acid and layered finish. Drink now or in the next
5 years.

2008
Molly Dooker "The Boxer" Shiraz $25.99
Awarded
91 points by Wine Spectator (the same score as the
famous 2005 vintage!). The power, structure, complexity
and length are amazing with opulent black fruit and
spice, and a long silky finish.
