Sparkles   glass/bottle

Crémant de Loire
NV Domaine Chanson Alex Mathur  Loire,  FR   11/40
Get your sparkle on with this crisp, mouth watering, tongue tickling sparkling wine.  Lemon, lime, Granny Smith.

Prosecco
NV Il Ceppo  Tuscany,  ITL   9/32
A frothy, crisp Prosecco that reveals more fruit than is generally found in these value-priced, delicious, crowd-pleasing sparkling wines.  Soft, fresh, vibrant.

White   glass/bottle

Crisp and Refreshing

Melon de Bourgogne
2010 Domaine les Hautes Noëlles Muscadet Côtes de Grandlieu, FR  11/40
If Rombauer Chardonnay was anchoring one side of the spectrum this Loire white would be holding steady the opposite end.  Minerality, salt, green apple.

Sauvignon Blanc
2010 Claude Michot  Pouilly Fumé, FR  14/52
If this wine was any dryer it’d be doing standup in London.  But serious folks, go lick 2 stones and call me in the morning.  Flint, citrus, smoke.

Aromatic and Lush

Gewürztraminer
2001 Château d’Orschwihr ‘Hueben Steinbach’ Alsace, FR 9/32
After 11 years in the bottle, this wine is tasting as fresh and lively as ever.  However, like any good coming of age story, the depth of character achieved is astounding.  Apricots, orange marmalade, caramel.

Chubby and Satisfying

Riesling
2010 Max Ferd. Richter Mülheimer Sonnenlay ‘Zeppelin’ Mosel, GER 11/40
Wines from this vineyard were served in the fancy restaurants aboard the Zeppelin airships of the 1920’s.  We refuse to offer you riesling lovers anything less than the best.  Apple, lemon, rich.

Chardonnay
2008 Robledo  Los Carneros, CA  12/44
This wine is dedicated to the American Dream.  Immigrant farmer turned vineyard owner and winemaker.  Stylistically 100% classic California Chard.  Orange blossom, jasmine, vanilla bean.

Pink   glass/bottle

Cinsault/Grenache
2009 Chateau Saint-Pierre  Côtes de Provence, FR  11/40
Having gone new school over the past few months with our fruit forward and BIG pinks, we’ve decided to kick it back to the region that has the deft skills to make rosé’s a thing of delicate, subtle beauty.  Candied watermelon rind, blood orange, flowers.

Red   glass/bottle

Bright and Juicy

Pinot Noir
2010 Hadenfig No. 52  Willamette Valley, OR 12/44
When Oregonians aren’t complaining about Californians driving up real estate prices they’re typically found consuming and hoarding great local beer and wine.  This pinot found its way out, thankfully.  Tart cherry, violet, Asian spice.

Grenache Noir/Carignan/Cinsault/Syrah
2009 Espirit du Rhone  Cotes du Rhone, FR  9/32
Not a complicated, head scratching glass of wine here, however what it lacks in sophistication it makes up for in sheer pleasure.  The world seems right and, for a moment, fair after a glass.  Red fruit, clove, leather.

Layered and Rich

Cabernet Sauvignon/Cabernet Franc
2009 Textbook  Napa, CA  13/48
The name says it all.  A perfect example of why we pay obscene amounts of
money for grapes grown an hour north of The Tenderloin.  Dark and brooding.

Petite Sirah
2009 Preston Dry Creek Valley, CA  13/48
From one of the most forward thinking wineries in California, no fancy marketing, no cute label or techno-trickery on the crush pad, just organic pressed grape juice and a little native yeast.  Blueberry, cranberry, vanilla.

Malbec
2009 Calcu Mendoza, ARG  10/36
Round two for this delicious malbec.  A new vintage with all the same jammy jam jam character you’ve come to know and love in your red grape juice from Argentina. Blackberry, cinnamon, rosemary.

Earthy and Substantial

Montepulciano/ Sangiovese
2009 Garofoli Rosso Piceno “Colle Ambro”  Marche, ITL  10/36
If you’re not into the look, sniff, sip method of enjoying wine and you’re into more of the “drink the damn thing” school then here’s the perfect wine for you.  Cherry, anis, mint.

Tempranillo/Trincadeira/Alicante Bouschet
2008 Fitapreta  Alentejano, PT  11/40
Smack it up, flip it, rub it down!  This wine has more flavor than a bucket full pudding pops.  Your tongue won’t believe its luck.  Spice, eucalyptus, rich.
