July Wine of the Month!

Published by Audrey under Uncategorized

Boniface Apremont

Boniface Apremont 2008 $17.99“This is as fresh as wine gets, the wine version of bubbling, crystal clear spring water. It is light in body, light in alcohol, alive and kicking on the palate, bone dry, and crisp at the finish. It reminds me of green apple, granite cliffs, and alpine meadows inhabited by of-age nymphs.”
Kermit Lynch, Wine Merchant

lovespain!

Hola!  Simply said, we love Spain.  Did you know that with over 15% of Its’ land is covered by vineyards Spain ranks first in the world for area covered by vines and third for overall wine production behind France and Italy?  What is not to love!  We know you feel the same way, so we’ve filled our June Case of the Month with Spanish wines.  This is a complete Spanish wine tasting in a box for just $99, everything you need to cozy up to Spain in all her viticultural glory.  The only down side is that there is a limited supply, so call us today to secure your case.

June Beer of the Month

Published by Chris under Uncategorized

Racer 5

 

Racer 5

- This is a hoppy IPA. Did I say hops? Your brewer is a hop head! This is a full bodied beer using American grains. The goal was to create a base for showing off the unique floral qualities of two Pacific Northwest hops, Columbus and Cascade. Columbus is a new hybrid High Alpha Acid hop used mostly for bittering, but used heavily as an aromatic in this bold brew. Cascade is the balance that ties the malt and bittering hops together. It is a true specialty ale and is our brewer’s statement on this style. 2004 L.A. Commercial Brewing Competition, Silver Medal Winner; 2004 World Beer Cup, Silver Medal Winner; 2001 Real Ale Festival, San Diego, Gold Medal Winner; 2001 Real Ale Festival, Chicago, Gold Medal Winner; 1999 Great Amercian Beer Festival, Gold Medal Winner - og 1.070, ABV 7.0%, IBU 69. California State Fair Bronze Medal, 1997 Beerfest Invitational. - og 1.070, ABV 7.0%, IBU 69.

June Wine of the Month

Crios Malbec

Crios
Rosé of Malbec 2008

Varietal Composition: 100% Malbec
Vineyard Location(s): Agrelo
Average Age of Vines: 30 years
Oak Regimen:None
Alcohol: 14%
Case Production: 17000
Tasting Notes/Food Pairing:
A beautiful, deep, vibrant rose color. Has a surprising amount of glycerin and body for a rosé wine, and beautiful aromas of fresh, ripe wild strawberries. On the palate, the flavors of strawberries and cherries come rushing in, accompanied by some spice notes and a clean, dry finish. This is the wine to serve with warm- weather meals when there is a mix of traditional white & red wine foods. Keep one in the fridge at all times and you’ll always have a delicious wine to enjoy with light snacks and cheeses. Best consumed in its youth. Pairs well with warm-weather meals when there is a mix of traditional white & red foods.
Press: 90 Points, Robert M. Parker, Jr.’s “The Wine Advocate”, December 2008
“It exhibits a fragrant bouquet of cherry and wild strawberries leading to a medium-bodied, dry, concentrated wine with lots of spicy red fruits and excellent balance.”
Value Brand of the Year: 2009, 2007, 2004, Wine & Spirits Magazine, June 2009
