The Whites
Jacques Pelvas Blanc de Blancs ♦ France
Pale yellow color with a slight green hue; complex nose with delicious bouquets of citrus fruits and ripe peaches. In mouth, straight clean flavors and a lot of freshness; a very harmonious wine with good persistence.
Jacques Pelvas Brut Rosé ♦ France
Fresh, with a beautiful light pink color. Pleasant nose of small red stone-fruits with a good length finish. A fine balanced wine.
La Fiera Moscato ♦ Italy
This Moscato is a soft wine with flavors of apricot and peach in its fuirt bouquet. The palate is sweet and crisp with a hint of spritz. Best enjoyed simply as a sipper or paired with light cuisine, and even desserts.
2016 Château Fondarzac White Bordeaux ♦ France
Primarily Sauvignon Blanc (with Muscadelle and Semillon to soften the acidity), this dry white wine is fresh on the palate, with a lovely crisp body, delicate citrus fruit aromas and
a delightfully spirited finish.
Breca Rose ♦ Spain
From vineyards in the rocky slate mountains of northeast Spain, this Rose is characterized by perfumed aromatics of white flowers and bright red berry fruit with distinctive and refreshing acidity.

2012 Borgo Maragliano Brachetto ♦ Piemonte, Italy
Despite being a light-bodied, low-alcohol (6%) wine, Brachetto is a frizzante (fizzy),
highly aromatic and sweet wine. Red and black raspberries, wild strawberries and rose petals are terms frequently used to describe the profound scent. The wine is best consumed in its youth, and is typically served slightly chilled, often with fresh fruit.

The Whites
Lucien Albrecht Crémant D’Alsace Brut ♦ France
This is the 100% Chardonnay sparkling wine made by the Albrecht family. Leaner and more elegant, this really shows its breed against many more costly Champagnes in France. Try it with a drop of Chambord. Excellent!
Lucien Albrecht Crémant Brut Rose ♦ France
An elegant rose cremant, featuring fresh cherry, strawberry and green plum notes. This is lively and balanced, with a lingering juicy finish.
2016 Clos des Lunes ♦ France
A wonderful blend of 70% Semillon and 30% Sauvignon Blanc. Pale gold color with green hues. Lively citrus nose, coated with sweet aromas of acacia and lime. Rich pulpy flesh of ripe Semillon. Delicious mineral complexity. The acidity of Sauvignon provides a good tension. Balanced and fruity long finish.
2016 Elizabeth Rose Chardonnay ♦ Napa Valley
Leaner/fresher style with tropical fruits, lychee undertones, slight minerality and a dry finish. Balanced by lemony acidity on the midpalate with a slightly creamy vanilla-laced finish. Enjoy on its own, with fish or white meats with a buttery sauce, or creamy pasta and vegetable dishes
2017 Yorkville Cellars Rose de Franc ♦ Mendocino
Aromas are floral with a pleasant herbaceousness and citrus tones.
Flavors of watermelon, dried strawberries with slight dry herbal notes.
A lovely match with paprika prawns, grilled salmon and garlic chicken
2009 Chateau Roumieu Sauternes ♦ France
Beautiful light emerald color with golden reflections. Ripe grapefruit, sweet citrus and honey on the nose. Nutty hints of oak and some vanilla aromas. Full syrupy body. Luscious sweetness balanced by fresh acidity and citrus aromas.

The Reds
2016 Pali Pinot Noir ♦ Sonoma Coast
The nose offers up sweet red fruits such as fresh raspberries, cherries and baked plums, all mingling with notes of cola, cinnamon, black pepper, and toasted oak. On the palate, black cherries and baking spices swirl with mushrooms and clove. Rich and coating mouthfeel with round tannins and fresh acidity on the finish.
2016 Badia di Morrona Chianti ♦ Italy
This blend of 85% Sangiovese and a balance of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah opens with dark-skinned berry, underbrush and cooking spice aromas. The straightforward, savory palate delivers black cherry, star anise and clove flavors alongside pliant tannins.
2016 Annabella Red Wine ♦ California
This blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel and a splash of Tempranillo is an extroverted wine, with generous aromas of ripe raspberries, peaches, and root beer. In the mouth, the wine shows sweet, supple tannins that lay heavily on the tongue, with flavors of juicy raspberries, white peach, espresso, and deeply charred French oak.
2015 Palacio del Burgo Rioja ♦ Spain
Vibrant red and dark berry scents are complemented by hints of cola and candied flowers. Fresh and energetic on the palate, offering juicy raspberry and bitter cherry flavors that deepen and become sweeter on the back half. Gentle tannins build slowly on the clinging finish but are no match for the plush, primary fruit.
2013 Chateau Tour de Luchey Bordeaux ♦ France
Dark, rich color. On the nose there is floral blackberry and black currant with a hint of chocolate. Dry and earthy, on the palate, with a hint of old wood and a note of leather that emerges with air. Full bodied and structured.
