Domaine du Pegau |
Cuvee Maclura Cotes du Rhone |
Made from the classic GSM blend, with a touch of Cinsault, this wine exudes complexity through a seamless blend of black cherry, mushroom, olive and violet. The palate is accessible and savory, with a soft midpalate of plum that trails to a finish of tobacco, cocoa and rose petal. A versatile gastronomic companion, this wine overdelivers for its price. Hidden Gem. |

Pinot Noir Anderson Valley |
This wine is rich, with aromas of raspberry, strawberry, vanilla cream, dried herbs and florals. Flavors on the palate are ripe berries and candied orange rind, intertwined with Bing cherry, dried clove and a dry, supple finish. Pair with roasted duck breast and cherry compote. |

Pinot Noir 'Twelve Clones' Santa Lucia Highlands |
Focused and well integrated aromas of dark plum, raspberry, scarlet-red rose and all of the baking spices make for a very elegant and appealing nose on this bottling. Baked boysenberry and Luxardo cherry flavors are cut by creamy chai spices on the palate. |

Pursued by Bear |
Red Blend 'Bear Cub' Columbia Valley |
The Bear Cub scampers, fueled by floral aromas of hyacinth, rose petals and dark raspberries. Nicely balanced, with silky tannins and elevated acidity, this ursine juvenile offers the ripest red and black fruit flavors this side of Jellystone Park. Additional flavors of dark chocolate, espresso, coconut and cedar are tastier than the average bear. |

Sauvignon Blanc Arroyo Seco |
Brisk aromas of jalapeño give exciting spice to apricot and white peach elements on the nose of this wine. The palate is peppery and grassy at first, then opens into tropical flavors of guava. |

Blanc-Sain |
Fresh and a bit flinty, this features apple, citrus, butter and spice notes on an elegant frame. It shows just a hint of mineral on the lingering finish. Best Buy. |
