WHITE WINES
|
|
Paradiso, 2006 —
$22.00
Case Price: $17.60
In Italian,
"Paradiso" means heaven or paradise.
Our Paradiso, a very unique field
blend of three Italian white varietals --Arneis, Fiano, and Malvasia Bianco -- is our own
version of heaven. This aromatic, crisp, and complex white wine
is truly one of a kind, with its subtle grassy nose that flows into
a burst of crisp citrus fruit on the palate and a clean, lingering finish.
Paradiso is great paired with your
favorite fish or elegant chicken dish.

ROSÉ WINES

|
Dry Rosé, 2006 —
$22.00
Case Price: $17.60
While largely unknown in America, Europeans have for years appreciated and enjoyed the refreshing nature of
a fine, dry, rose wine. Our traditional dry rose is made from 100% Cabernet grapes. The juice was bled off
the skins shortly after crush to produce the beautiful, natural peach-salmon hue. The wine has a rich fruit
nose, bright flavors of wild berry, and undertones of orange and lemon rind. Our Dry Rose is surprisingly flexible: equally
at home when enjoyed as an afternoon aperitif, as a pleasing salad accompaniment, or as a pairing to a
variety of hearty dishes.

RED WINES
|
| Late Harvest Primitivo, 2005 —
$26.00
Case Price: $20.80
Primitivo is the Italian clone of the Zinfandel grape. This wine is round, robust, and richly textured, with berry and spice flavors.
Its fruity character makes it an excellent counterpart for spicy foods and hearty Italian dishes. The wine was aged in oak to lend
balance and complexity. |
| Chateauneuf du Pape, 2004 —
$26.00
Case Price: $20.80
Our Chateauneuf du Pape is a classic blend of Grenache and Syrah grapes traditionally grown in France's
Chateauneuf du Pape region outside of Avignon. This wine was aged in small oak barrels for two years.
|
| Cabernet Sauvignon, 2002 —
$26.00
Case Price: $20.80
This wine represents a superb example of
this proud varietal. Aged for the first year in new American
oak
and the second year in French oak, this exciting wine is intense and
full bodied. While very approachable now, aging our Cabernet
Sauvignon will yield wonderful rewards. |
|
Super Tuscan, 2005 —
$28.00
Case Price: $22.40
Our Super Tuscan follows in the tradition of Italy's great Brunellos, with hearty tannin structure
and rich, dark fruit character. Our Super Tuscan is a blend of two of the world's great varietals:
90% Brunello di Montalcino grapes and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes.
The wine was aged in small French and American Oak Barrels for 14 months.

Cinq
Diamante, 2002—
$30.00
Case Price: $24.00
Made
from five of our finest grapes, this is a master blend of 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Nebbiolo, 30%
Grenache, 7% Malbec and 3% Syrah. Cinq
Diamante means “Five Diamond” in French, an appropriate name for one of the
Chateau’s flagship wines. The wine is full-bodied and rich flavored, and was aged in French and American
Oak Barrels for 2 years.
|
|
Barolo, 2002—
$32.00
Case Price: $25.60
Our
Barolo is made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes, producing a
superbly earthy wine, with hints of mineral and truffle. This
wine was aged for the first year in new
American Oak and the second year in French
Oak, further adding to the deep color and richness. Barolo
"screams"
for a char-grilled steak or other red meats, but pairs equally
well with boldly spiced Italian foods, especially if they include
Portobello mushroom.
