Anne Amie Vineyards, Pinot Gris Willamette Valley, Oregon $22
An elegant expression of this versatile varietal. Intensely aromatic with floral notes that give way to a palate of Asian pear, Meyer lemon and rose petal. Balanced and crisp, this wine is a diverse match for many foods on the table. Fermented in neutral barrels to enhance mouthfeel and aged on the lees for four months before bottling.
Cadre, Gruner Veltliner “Band of Stones” San Luis Obispo, California $28
Gruner is great for all kinds of foods. It has a great acidity and is full of fruitiness. A complex wine that presents a intriguing profile including salty citrus, white pepper, jasmine, lime and papaya, and grapefruit. 100% stainless steel fermentation aged on fine lees to give it a richness. This Austrian grape grown in California's cooler coastal regions, offers a unique expression of the varietal that combines Old World characteristics with New World terroir.
Torii Mor, Pinot Noir Reserve Willamette Valley, Oregon $30
Offers refinement and presence, with expressive raspberry and pomegranate flavors, laced with fresh violet and orange blossom notes, building richness toward polished tannins. Beautiful lush red fruit with savory spice and beautifully balanced. All wrapped in a soft, silky texture.
Chateau Moya, Bordeaux Rouge Côtes de Castillon, France $38
Located in the Côtes de Castillon region of Bordeaux, France, near the prestigious Saint-Émilion.. This estate is known for producing high-quality wines primarily from from Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. It is a 2015, perfectly allowing it to meld into a juicy, bold, classy and clean Bordeaux. Vanilla, chocolate, cherry, plum, toasted oak, spice, and ripe red blueberry. The palate reveals a full-bodied experience with a smooth onset that evolves beautifully towards acidity, showcasing well-integrated tannins.
