Rhys Perpetual Reserve California Sparkling Wine (Was $75)
Winery Notes- This year’s release of Perpetual Reserve displays the same energetic and delicious character that has made previous releases so popular. Utilizing fruit from both our Bearwallow and Mt. Pajaro estate vineyards, it is made in a solera style by blending the current vintage with reserve wines dating back to 2016 and aging on the lees for two years. This process not only creates a beautiful sparkling wine, it also offers tremendous consistency each year.$49.9013 -
2015 Gloria Ferrer Royal Cuvee Carneros Sparkling Wine (Was $50)
Winery Notes- Aromas of light citrus and apple in the background lead into an explosion of fresh green apple, crisp pear, and subtle lemon zest flavors on the palate. The wine has fine, delicate bubbles with a full mouthfeel. The perfect blend of creamy Chardonnay and rich Pinot Noir culminates in a lovely, lingering finish.$34.907 -
Verrier & Fils Brut Fleuron Champagne (Was $100)
Winery Notes- The colour of this Cuvée Fleuron is particularly luminous. It has a yellow-gold colour with very light green reflections and sparkles pleasantly thanks to the presence of extremely fine and numerous bubbles. A beautiful string of foam punctuates the effervescence on the surface. The general presentation, fresh and distinguished, testifies to the quality of the blend. The first nose, although of medium intensity, offers a very fine expression. It delivers aromas of fresh butter, almond, bergamot and thyme. With aeration, it reveals aromas of candied lemons and oranges on a very racy background of minerality. After ten minutes, the finesse of expression doubles with aromas of white flowers and limestone. The "air hold" after twenty minutes shows the stability of the wine as well as its potential. Although still a little discreet, but fine, distinguished and distinguished, this nose is one of the great classics of Champagne. The attack on the palate is lively, with a beautiful effervescence immediately relayed by the freshness of the wine. It is this acidic edge that will set the tempo of the tasting until the finish. The vinosity and slightly warm character of the wine simply accompany the freshness, while the dosage is almost imperceptible. The wine stands upright and seems airy. The effervescence remains creamy until the finish and produces a tender, very caressing texture. The finish is acidic and mineral at the same time. Extremely precise, it gives an impression of purity and ends with a good aromatic length (about six seconds). The wine ends its course with some aromas of lemons, iodine and butter.$49.9014 -
2021 Folktale The Lion For Real Skin Fermented Monterey County White Wine (Orange Wine)
Winery Notes- At it’s core, this is a skin fermented white wine thatis a blend of every vintage since 2017. We’re making this in a Solera-style, where each year we blend in a fresh, young vintage giving the wine vibrancy and an aromatic boost. But, on the flipside, having a significant aged portion allows for the wine to express itself in a more mature way, blending itself beautifully into many food pairings you might throw at it. It’s more diverse than you think, and being un-fined and un-filtered means that you’re tasting the wine in it’s natural setting- just as Mother Nature (and we) intended. Components from the 2021 portion consisted predominantly of Chardonnay from Massa Estatein Carmel Valley – an organically farmed vineyard in the Santa Lucia Mountains. The grapes were destemmed and natively fermented in small open top tanks. Pressing in our basket press took place once the fermentations wrapped up and and the wine was racked to neutral French oak to age. Blending of the 2021 portion and the solera took place just before bottling in June 2022.$24.903 -
Domaine Carneros Cuvée de la Pompadour Brut Rosé Sparkling Wine (Was $45)
Winery Notes- The Domaine Carneros Cuvée de la Pompadour Brut Rosé, celebrates the life and times of Madame de Pompadour (the great courtesan and mistress of Louis XV) who is credited with introducing Champagne to the court and was an influential tastemaker in the matters of art, architecture and philosophy. Domaine Carneros Brut Rosé is a wine of great balance, emphasizing fruity and floral characteristics to a greater extent than evident in the Brut or Le Rêve. It is made strictly with artisan attention to quality, with sourcing exclusively from Carneros and the use of time-honored Champenoise methods of production. A blend of 58% Pinot Noir, 42% Chardonnay, the Brut Rosé is meant to be enjoyed at a fairly young age, when the fruity character is still predominant yet there is enough age to make the wine round and balanced. The wine's aroma has hints of wild strawberries and roses with notes of peach Although a pale pink in color, Brut Rosé is not sweeter than our other wines. It is a true Brut.$33.9012
