2010 Kenwood Vineyards Reserve Zinfandel

The 2010 Kenwood Reserve Zinfandel was carefully selected from individual barrels of our finest Zinfandel lots by our winemaking team. The vineyards used to make the blend are located in some of Sonoma County’s best appellations, including the Alexander, Sonoma and Dry Creek Valleys. A small amount of the fruit was sourced from a hillside vineyard located in Lake County’s High Valley appellation. Before bottling, Petite Sirah was added to the blend to give the resulting wine more character and backbone.

2011 Beaulieu Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

The fruit-focused aromas and flavors take center stage, while subtle vanilla-oak and mocha nuances from barrel aging linger in the background. The cool growing season enhanced this wine's supple structure of bright acidity and fine-grained tannins, making it immediately enjoyable with mellow cheeses and red meats, such as filet of beef tenderloin accompanied by a Yukon gold potato and fennel gratin.

2010 Roeno Teroldego I Dossi

Teroldego is an ancient variety indigenous to the mountain valleys of Northeast Italy, nearly lost to industrial viticulture but now revived by winemakers like the Fugatti family of Roeno. I Dossi is the vineyard from which this bottling comes, and when you pour out a glass you can see why the Fugattis thought this grape worth saving. Very dark in the glass, it brings aromas of African violets, roses, and plums. Its body is surprisingly light given its dark color and grippy tannins, its fruit though generous is cast against a background of slaty dryness. Black cherry and raspberry fruit, plums, and even notes of pomegranate, make Teroldego a unique experience. A touch of bitter black fruit on the finish cleanses the palate and makes you ready for the next sip. Pairing: Spicy aromatic aged cheese, salumi or cured meat, lamb tagine with raisins, or fancy burgers

2011 Coppola Malbec Diamond Series

Malbec is less tannic than Cabernet but more so than Merlot, giving it a powerful structure but more immediate drinkability. Our Malbec was grown in several coastal vineyards, which experience an abundance of afternoon sun, little wind, and well-drained soils. This vintage exudes rich, dark fruits, currants and cassis, but an inherent note of minerals and spice is what makes this wine distinctive and delicious.

2012 A by Acacia Pinot Noir

A generous Pinot Noir with delicious flavors of cherry, vanilla, and cinnamon. Ripe tannins provide structure while toasty oak gives the wine pleasant aromas of spice and seasoned wood.

2007 Pricum Prieto Picudo

This wine was made from 90% estate grown vines and 10% purchased grapes grown around the village of Pajares de los Oteros, just south of Leon. The wine was aged for a total of 13 months in French oak barrels from a number of small coopers. Dark ruby-colored, it sports a sexy bouquet of Asian spices, wild berries, truffle, and underbrush. Vibrant, complex, and structured on the palate, it is packed with savory red fruits, and displays impeccable balance. It will evolve for several years and drink well for a decade. 92+ points Wine Advocate.

2011 Once Upon A Vine Sauvignon Blanc

Once upon a time, she searched all the wine shelves for her one true Sauvignon Blanc. Then she found The Lost Slipper. With vibrant tropical fruits and a rich, round style, it was the perfect fit. The nose radiated lively passion fruit aromas, giving way to ripe guava and pineapple flavors. The varietal’s bright, crisp character was elevated by sur lie aging, which added weight and fleshiness to the palate. Friendly, inviting and delicious, it was love at first sip.

2011 Rosenblum Vintner's Cuvee Chardonnay

Bright and balanced, our 2011 Chardonnay Cuvee offers a refreshing Burgundian-style expression of the varietal. Oak plays a minimal role, imparting only subtle poached pear spices to crisp granny smith apple and citrus fruits. The cool vintage produced fruit with higher acids and expressive spice elements that add lift and character in the mouth. Pair with poached chicken or grilled seafood dishes. Vineyard The grapes for our Chardonnay Cuvee come from Clarksburg and Lodi. These eastern growing regions generally experience warmer overall temperatures during the growing season. This worked to our advantage in a cooler vintage like 2011 and enabled the vines to get the warmth they needed to ripen. Ultimately, the fruit showed a more classic European style, with well-balanced flavors, good structure and high acids.

2007 Chablis Vieilles Vignes Domaine Savary

Olivier Savary lives in a small town north of Chablis proper, not far from Roland Lavantureux. The two have very different personalities and very different styles. Olivier’s wine, particularly his old-vines bottling here, has a little more weight and roundness to it. This stems from the more concentrated juice in the berries produced by the old vines and Olivier’s decision to age the wine partially in wood.

2007 Melsheimer Riesling Dry

MELSHEIMER With its easterly exposure, the little-known Reiler Mullay-Hofberg site has gained greatly through global warming, but that would not have been enough to create great wines without ex-volleyball player Thorsten Melsheimer to interpret it. Low yields and organic viticulture, plus a healthy dose of ambition, have sent this 27 acre estate shooting to the top. The distinctive lemon aroma and supercharged racy style of the wines (dry and sweet) make them unique on the Mosel. For wine-lovers around the world, the steep-sided, vine-clothed valley of the Mosel, extending from the point where Germany borders both France and Luxembourg to the river's confluence with the Rhine at Koblenz, is the defining image of German wine-growing. The Rieslings from here are the defining wines of Germany.

Korbel Champagne Brut

Korbel Brut is the ultimate blended wine. We blend multiple varieties from multiple appellations and even multiple years. The goal is to make a champagne that consistently delivers a lot of quality for the price. Korbel Brut is crisp and refreshing, with a light citrus and fresh pear-like note in the finish.

Sutter Home Moscato

Sutter Home Moscato is sweet and creamy—an especially delightful treat when shared with your sweetie. Beautiful scents of white peaches, rose petals and exotic lichee fruit waft from the glass, leading to luscious peach and honeydew melon flavors. The sweet flavors are perfectly balanced by crisp acidity, and a refreshing finish. Heavenly with light cheeses and fruity desserts, our Moscato is especially lovely when paired with spicy cuisine like Thai or Indian.
