2007 Dom. Du
Tariquet Sauvignon $9.99
This 100% Sauvignon Blanc displays intense floral notes,
as well as great minerality. Its beautiful texture will
be the perfect accompaniment to any fish or seafood
dishes.
2007 Tariquet
Chardonnay $12.99
The Grassa family brings you this powerful, yet elegant
Chardonnay, partially aged in French oak barrels. Buttery
flavors, toasted bread and vanilla dominate the palate.
This rich wine that remains fresh pairs beautifully
with a roasted chicken.
2007 Tariquet
Chenin/Chard $10.99
This wine marries the finesse of Chenin Blanc (75%)
with the elegance and structure of Chardonnay (25%).
This complex wine displays delicious floral notes, as
well as exotic fruit and vanilla. It brings seafood
and chicken dishes to perfection.
2007 Tariquet
Côté $12.99
With opposing characters, the Chardonnay and Sauvignon
combine into numerous and astonishing flavors in a unique
and original blend. Serve as an apertif, with fish,
foie gras or white meat, this wine will surprise and
awaken the palate.
'06 Le Clos $11.99
Blended from 45% Merlot, 15% Cab, 20% Carignan and 20%
Grenache, Le Clos boasts lively red and black fruit
aromas and exotic, spicy highlights. Silky tannins support
a finely structured palate, softened by a touch of toasty
vanilla oak.
Cheese
Sapori d'Italia
Agri $2.49 ea
Straight from Nichlasville, KY, this goat cheese gets
its name from the italian word for fresh. Finished early
Wednesday afternoons, it is topped with italian style
herbs and hand delivered to our door.
Now that's KY Proud!
Sapori d'Italia
Peperoncini
Another one of the many styles of goat cheese from the
same cheesemaker, Giovanni Capezzuto has infused this
cheese with the bold flavor of red pepper. Alongside
one of our artisan made salamis, this combo makes for
a perfect cheese and charcuterie plate.
Cantalet, France
Cantalet (kahn-TAH-lay) is one of the oldest cheese
in France, older even than Roquefort. It is named after
the Cantal Mountains in Auvergne, where it is produced
from cow*s milk and then aged. The flavor is buttery
and nutty with earthy undertones and each bite lingers
gracefully in the mouth. Pairs well with a wide variety
of wines.
Vintage Gouda,
Netherlands
This gouda is aged 5 years and there aren't so many
Goudas of that age with a similar miracle of flavor.
With a texture similar to Parmigiano-Reggiano, its rich
flavor and subtle sweetness is intense and complex.
This cheese pairs beautifully with a rich red wine or
cool, tall glass of beer.
