JOSEPH MELLOT SANCERRE “LA CHATELLENIE”
This 100% Sauvignon Blanc comes from vineyards with flint-rich clay soils, giving this wine a characteristic gunflint flavor. Pale gold with greenish highlights, this wine offers a rich nose of citrus and tropical fruits. The palate is bright and cheerful with a lively acidity and clean mineraliity that begs for an pairing of shellfish and soft cheese.

PURPLE HANDS PINOT NOIR
There is a reason that the Willamette Valley in Oregon has earned international reputation name for excellent Pinot Noir. The climate and terrior of the area produces fruit that is bold, forward-flavored and yet still balanced and elegant. This fine example carries loads of succulent fruits, like cherries and plums. Warm spice and hints of cherry cola add a depth and richness that lingers on the smooth, silky palate. Effortlessly drinkable!

GIBBS MERLOT
Sourcing the fruit from valley floor vineyards of Oakville, Napa, ensures optimal ripeness of the grapes. That ripeness, along with extended maceration (immersion of grape skins in juice) produces a wine that is boldly colored with firm, well-formed tannins. A complex palate of blue and black fruits, baking spice and dark chocolate gives you a round, juicy texture and long, silky finish.
