Item Description

2 bottles of Banshee Pinot Noir 2018

Vinted and bottled in Sonoma, California. From winemaker’s notes on
wine.com - “An exciting, yet friendly wine, bursting at the seams with
aromas of macerated wild berries and an elegant, soft earth undertone. The
flavors combine both sweet and tart, reminiscent of Santa Rosa plums and
wild blackberries that grow so commonly in Sonoma Wine Country. The
finish is bright, slightly herbal, and savory making this an excellent food
wine, as well as a charming drinking experience by itself.”

Rivata Casa Rossa Rosso 2008
Product of Piemonte, Italy. From totalwine.com - “This delicious, softly
sweet red is a veritable fruitbowl of cherry, strawberry and blueberry with
a soft easy-drinking palate. A hint of fizziness keeps the wine fresh on the
palate, making it the perfect pairing for desserts and weekend brunch.”

F. Stephen Miller Black Label Zinfandel 2019
Intensely fruity, drenched in decadent dark berry fruits, mingled with a
touch of soul-warming baking spice and a velvety, mouth-filling
smoothness from Calaveras County, US. From the winemaker’s notes on
Vivino.com - “This is a big wine with big flavors...cherries, raspberries,
dark fruit and just the right balance of oaky smoothness.”

Juggernaut Hillside Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
Dense and velvety with vanilla and ripe black currants from California,
US; aroma of licorice and blackberry. From the winemaker’s notes -
“French oak beautifully transforms intense hillside fruit into a wine with
uncommon richness and smooth, luxurious texture.”

Vicchiomaggio San Jacopo Chianti Classico 2018
Mainly Sangiovese grape from Greve in Chianti, Italy. From
corkingwines.co.uk - “a lovely expression of Chianti. With red cherry and
cranberry fruits, the palate has good substance and a lingering, rounded
finish.”

Sharon Weeks Cattoo Petite Sirah 2019
Fruity red from California, US; perfect pairings include meats, stews,
braised and grilled meats, short ribs, hamburgers, and barbecue of all
types. From nakedwines.com - “This deep, rich red overflows with
brambly dark berry flavors, like a fresh handful of rip, juicy raspberries
and blueberries, backed by a trace of dark chocolate and a luscious, mouthfilling smoothness.”

Chateau Greysac Medoc 2015
Deep ruby garnet with red berry flavors combined with notes of spice and
bell pepper in the background from Medoc, France; pairs with all meats,
poultry, wild mushrooms, and strong cheeses. From Robert Parker’s Wine
Advocate - “has a perfumed bouquet with plenty of tobacco-infused black
fruit, just a touch of warm gravel emerging with time. The palate is
medium-bodied with fine tannin, crisp in the mouth with a very precise
finish that deserves a round of applause.”

Dime 100 Red Blend 2018
Full-bodied, slightly sweet from Santa Barbara County, California; tasting
notes of dark cherry, eucalyptus, rhubarb, strawberry that pairs well with
burgers, beef, lamb, chocolate cake. From winc.com - “wine has soft
tannins and a lush, velvety texture. Fruity, bold, and hearty, this is a
perfect wine to enjoy with comfort food.”
