Los Nevados Malbec
This great new value comes from the high zone of Mendoza in the Val de Uco. The vineyards of Los Nevados are planted at almost four thousand feet thus benefiting from the cooler climate and a longer growing season. Fermented in stainless steel and aged in 30% new oak for a couple of months, it's got bright rich fruit with great balance of freshness and a complex finish.
Altos Las Hormigas Bonarda
Four Italian partners got together to create this winery after recognizing the potential of old vines grown in the warm climate of Argentina. Bonarda also happens to have Italian origins. The Las Hormigas vineyard is located at 800 to 900 meters altitude. Blueberry fruit, a touch of acidity and a really warming wine from the most widely planted grape in the Argentine.
Chateau de Rouanne Cotes Du Rhone
This may be the best value in the store. It has wonderful pure fruit and traditional structure. Peppery, earthy, black cherry and coffee aromas. Solid mouthful of dark, juicy fruit flavors and good length. Winemaking Details: Aged in Concrete Vats
Echeverria Sauvignon Blanc
Little touch of the grassy notes from a typical Sauv Blanc but leaning more to lemon and lime fruit on the palate makes this a very refreshing wine.
Dibon Cava Brut Reserve
Light gold with plenty of bubbles, this wine has aromas of apples and pears with pleasant floral notes. Crisp and light-bodied on the palate, stone fruit flavors are accompanied by a mild minerality and balanced acidity. A delicious sparkler for a great price! Winemaking Details: Natural Yeast Fermentation,
Aresti Equilibrio Sauvignon Blanc
In 1951, the Aresti family began to cultivate vineyards in the cooler Andes influenced eastern part of the Curico Valley, in such prestigious areas as Curico, Molina and Rio Claro. Leaning more towards a citrus style sauv blanc, this is a super dope pairing with fish dishes.
Palazzone Orvieto
Palazzone cultivates the indigenous grape varieties allowed in the Orvieto D.O.C., namely Procanico, Verdello, Grechetto, Drupeggio and Malvasia Toscana. They do not use insecticides or fungicides in their vineyards and are judicial in the amount of sulfur added to their wines. Word has it on the rough tough streets of Brooklyn that a good Orvieto has hints of almonds on the nose and a palate of white summer flowers. This is it...word.
Masciarelli Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Masciarelli is the largest organically farmed Estate in Italy. This everyday charmer is a nice marriage of old and new world styles. It has a bit of earthiness in an old world way, but plenty of fruit to please just about anyone! It has a slightly smoky and dusty nose with dark berries and leather. Cherries, blackberries and chocolate round out the palate. This is a great "house wine" to have around for meals and friends. Winemaking Details: Stainless Steel Tank Fermentation
Los Nevados Chardonnay
This great new value comes from the high zone of Mendoza in the Val de Uco. The vineyards of Los Nevados are planted at almost four thousand feet thus benefiting from the cooler climate and a longer growing season. This is a rich, full-bodied Chardonnay without the oak, making it refreshing and a bit too easy to drink!
Gruet Blanc de Noir 375 ml
The Gruet family are originally from the Champagne region in France but this is their US (New Mexico!) venture. Shows lemon and lime tang, with a touch of creaminess. Crisp, dry and one of the best American sparkling wines. It gets a party starting off right.
