FEATURED WINES
 
2006 BODEGA DANTE ROBINO MENDOZA ARGENTINA BONARDA  OUR PRICE $13.99
88 Points Wine Advocate
"The 2006 Bonarda spent four months in American oak.  Deep ruby-colored, it has an intense perfume of blueberry and earth notes.  Layered and ripe on the palate, it has no hard edges.  Enjoy this excellent value over the next four years." 

2007 ERMITAGE DU PIC SAINT LOUP LANGUEDOC FRANCE  OUR PRICE $15.95
Blend of Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvèdre.  The very talented and dedicated Ravaille brothers farm vines around the base of the rock outcropping of Pic Saint Loup deep in southern France.  Here, the rocky outcroppings impart notes of garrigue, fresh thyme, black olive to complement crushed red berried fruits.

2008 TORMARESCA “NEPRICA” PUGLIA ITALY  OUR PRICE $9.99
Blend of Negroamaro, Primitivo (Zinfandel), and Cabernet Sauvignon.  NePriCa, a ruby red wine named after the grapes in the blend has aromas of berries and light, spicy licorice.  It is a harmonious blend with flavors of dark fruit, chocolate, and hints of licorice with a balanced acidity.

2008 BOEKENHOUTSKLOOF FRANSCHHOEK "THE WOLFTRAP" CAPE OF GOOD HOPE SOUTH AFRICA  OUR PRICE $9.99
Blend of 68% Syrah, 30% Mourvedre and 2% Viognier.  The Wolftrap is a spicy, aromatic, red blend that has been aged in French oak.  Full of black fruits, red and black berries with some violet flavors. Smooth on the palate with some fresh aromas of wild strawberries and cherries.
