Gunderloch, Jean-Baptiste, Reisling Kabinett, Rheinhessen, Germany ’03 $17.99
Minerally with great balance, you love this single vineyard reisling from prestigious German importer, Rudi Weist. Prost!

Wine By Joe, Pinot Blanc, ’05 Oregon $13.99
Do you know Joe! This second label offering from acclaimed Oregon producer, Joe Dobbes, oozes freshness and crisp fruit character. Delicious with fish!

Crossings, Un-Oaked Chardonnay, Marlborough, NZ ’05 $13.99
If you haven’t gotten into the un-oaked thang, well the time is now! This is pure uninfluenced Chardonnay at its finest, you won’t believe what Chardonnay really tastes like!

Big Fire, Pinot Gris, by R.Stuart ’05 Oregon $16.99
This wine has a cult following and for a dam good reason, no doubt. Produced by R.Stuart Cellars and named after a rock band from the 80’s, this wine is everything you want from an Oregonian Pinot Gris, and is as effortly likeable as the girl next door!

Dei Feudi di San Gregorio, Falanghina, ’05 Campania, Italia $15.99
Campania is hot, and we completely understand why! This producer is really making some quality unique wines from a part of Italy that most only know for its famous, Mount Vesuvius and lost city of Pompeii. It offers an elegant bouquet, with aromas of apple, banana, and pineapple, you’ll love it!

Domaine Jean-Marc Brocard, ‘St. Claire’, Chablis, ’05 $19.99
Terrior man. You’ve got to love your white Burgs! A great balance of steely, mineral fruit, with a light touch of oak. ‘Gunflint’ as the French say, refers to the unique ancient sea-shell littered vineyards.

Peralta Winery, Syrah, Ca. ’04 $9.99
If you like your Syrah’s to be big and bold with a flavor explosion on the palate, this is for you. And did I mention, it’s a great value.

Turnbull, ‘Old Bull Red’, Napa ’05 $24.99
A great proprietary blend, of parts unknown, from one of Napa’s premier producers. This has long been a favorite of ours and I feel will continue to be.

C.G. Di Arie, Petit Sirah, Lodi, Cali. ’04 $24.99
Honestly, this ex-food scientist was responsible for the creation of such American staple’s as “Cap’n Crunch” and “Hidden Valley Ranch”. These days, he’s putting his talents into his wine and you will not be disappointed by inky black, highly concentrated, dark berry and chocolate Petit Sirah.

‘Ludovicus’, Terre Alta, Pinol, Espana ’05 $12.99
We are really loving our Spanish wine these days, who isn’t right? We felt that this blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha, Cab and Syrah really stepped it up a notch and brought to the table an elegant Bordeaux style-blend from Spain. And oh, the name is from the last Roman Emperor to rule the area before the crash of the empire!

Domaine des Bosquets, Gigondas, Rhone’03 $27.99
Mainly Grenache with a smidget of syrah, this wine shows explosive raspberry, spice and leather aromas. “To drink Gigondas is to go back in time when when great red wines were muscular and rough…before winemakers knew how to soften up wine and give it polish”.

Foris, Pinot Noir, Rogue Valley, Oregon, ’03 $19.99
From the lessen known Oregonian appellation of the Rogue Valley, just south of Willamette, this soft, silky, and accessible Pinot achieves great fruit concentration and rich texture. A Pinot lovers Pinot.
