Moulin de Gassac 2009 Vin de Pays l'Herault Guilhem Rouge
This is a super value red if ever there was one, deep red fruit with a solid earthiness and a light bright cherry red finish. In the early 1980s the French and English wine press created the first superstar wine of southern France’s Languedoc, the 1978 Mas de Daumas Gassac. It was called the “Latour of the Midi” and the “Lafite of the Midi” depending on the reviewer. A rich blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and about a dozen local and non-local red wine grapes, it was highly unusual for a region which before then was known as France’s wine lake. The winery has now produced a second label of affordable and delicious table wines that have captivated us for their drinkability and versatility. The red wine, made from Syrah, Grenache, Carignan and Cinsault is a super-value if ever there was one. |

Dow's N.V. Trademark Reserve Port
This wine shows off the house style of Dow’s, which is a “drier” style of Port. Don’t be fooled as there is sweetness on this wine and it’s a wonderful wine that will introduce you to the world of Port. The fruit is sourced from various vineyards, including Bomfim and Senhora da Ribeira, two of Dow’s prized vineyards. There is some mint, spice, chocolate, and loads of black fruit on this wine. |

Marcel Moineaux 2004 Champagne Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs
I had tasted this wine in previous vintages and always found something fascinating about it but something kept me from pulling the trigger and bringing it in the shop….pretty unusual wine in that while it had some lovely fruit it was, (and is) all white flowers on the palate….can’t remember the last time someone came in and asked me for a Champagne bursting with white flowers, hence the hesitation to stock it. Well I did pull the trigger and man am I glad I did, this wine is absolutely stunning and so unlike anything else we have, it is long, sensual and so delicately beautiful that it will haunt you days later. |

Domaine Goisot 2007 Saint Bris
Saint Bris, a village near Auxerre not far from Chablis, is the only appellation in Burgundy that allows Sauvignon Blanc. This is one of my favorite white wines in the store. Stony, lemony great texture with a long bright tangy finish. |

Edmunds St. John 2005 Parmelee-Hill Sonoma Valley Syrah
Winemaker Steve Edmunds is one of the great practitioners of traditionally-styled winemaking in California, fashioning wines that combine classic balance and elegance with perfectly ripe California fruit. The balance, depth and complexity of this delicious wine clearly show the inspiration of France's Rhone Valley, yet with the richness of fruit that lets you know it's a California wine. The wine has notes of black licorice and the meaty gaminess that is typical of a fine syrah, with supple tannins and a very long finish. From the excellent 2005 vintage, this wine shows a bit of maturity in its exuberant bouquet and silky texture. Really a wonderful Syrah that is a tremendous bargain for the quality. |
