Santa Ana "Eco" Organic Cabernet Sauvignon 2009, Argentina

"Intensely colored with aromas and flavors of sweet plum and blackberry fruit. Full bodied yet with very fine grained, soft tannins and a velvety, soft vanilla, lengthy finish. This wine is also made from organically grown grapes. The grapes are all hand harvested, and gently crushed and then fermented in stainless steel tanks and bottled, without the use of oak."

Red Rock Winemaker's Blend 2009, California

"Crafted with balance in mind, using a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah. The Petite Sirah adds unique characteristics to this blend, revealing concentrated aromas of dark plum jam and blueberry from the wine. Plush and balanced, this blend offers rich blackberry on the finish, with hints of spice and vanilla. Winemaker's Blend is an excellent match for a wide range of foods, offering a delicious balance to creamy pasta dishes, light desserts or mild cheeses."

Stonehedge  Sauvignon Blanc 2008, California

"Shows off ripe melon and pear flavors with a touch of citrus  with well balanced acidity and a smooth delicious aftertaste. Delivers a delightful melody of pear-melon, with flashes of pineapple fig in a lasting yet crisp and clean finish. It is produced 100% from Sauvignon Blanc grown in coastal areas of California. Carefully selected and picked at optimal ripeness for a perfect balance this Sauvignon Blanc will be excellent in warm weather. Its well balanced acidity makes this a great food wine, while its aromatic bouquet makes it enjoyable as an aperitif."

Our price: $ 3.99


Diddley Bow Riesling 2007, Australia

"The color is a crystal clear straw yellow. The nose is fresh lemons and flower garden, a beautiful and refreshing aroma. The flavor is not too tart grapefruit, lemon, then a bit of sweetness in the mid palate with a burst of tangerine. The acidity and the sugar are very well balanced. The finish is a long lasting lemon/ lime."

Our price: $ 6.99



Santa Rita Medalla Real Sauvignon Blanc 2008, Chile
"Elegant and compact, this is a tremendously balanced wine with vibrant acidity. On the palate it develops its fruity components and delivers a long, distinctly mineral, fruit-driven finish. Ideal as an aperitif or with seafood dishes such as oysters, lobsters and shrimp."
 Our price: $ 6.99
