South Australia!

2008 Fools Bay Chardonnay $10.99
This wine is rich in citrus fruits such as lime and grapefruit, combined with undertones of tropical fruits and grassy notes, finishing with a crisp yet balanced acidity.

2008 Fun House Pinot Grigio $10.99
Bouquet of springtime white and yellow flowers along with green apple and pear. Bone dry on the palate with some juicy fruit sweetness. Stainless steel fermented, producing a crisp, clean finish.

2008 Boxhead Cabernet $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.

2006 Raw Power Shiraz $10.99
This Shiraz is unmanipulated and 'real' reflecting the commitment & authenticity of garage winemaking, unpolished and raw with plenty of power. Aromas and flavors of chocolate, pipe tobacco, blackberry and ripe cherry with a nice minerally finish.

2004 Small Gully Robert's Shiraz 'The Formula' $16.99
The Formula is purple-colored with aromas of smoked meat, sausage, and blueberry. Supple-textured and full-flavored, it has excellent depth and concentration.

Cheese

Kenny's Farmhouse Awe-Brie $9.99/lb
A soft cheese with an unwashed rind. After an affinage of 8 weeks, it has a fine edible white mould rind with a straw colored interior. It has a smooth, pleasantly fragrant consistency with a creamy texture and distinctive flavor. Support your local farmers!

Carr Valley Snow White Cheddar $17.99/lb
A creamy white Goat Cheddar Cheese made in 38# wheels and cave aged for 6 months. This Cheese took 2nd Place at the 2007 American Cheese Society Competition and 2008 Best in Show at American Cheese Society!

Roth Kase Moody Blue 11.49/lb
Made in small batches from fresh, local Wisconsin milk, our rich, creamy blue is delicately smoked over fruit wood to create subtle smoky undertones with hints of roasted nuts and coffee. Beautifully balanced, sultry, and seductive, Moody Blue is excellent on a cheese plate and delicious in culinary creations!

Culinary Suggestion:
Try pairing fresh fall apples with thin slices of Date & Walnut Loaf. Top with a double or triple creme cheese for a truly decadent combination. Cheeses and Fruit Loaf can be found in the cheese shop. Fine deli meats are available by the pound as well.
