Willakenzie Pinot Gris

Oregon

Was $22; SALE $18

 

The proprietors of Willakenzie really love the Alsatian style of Pinot Gris (which is the same grape as Pinot Grigio): they go to great lengths to make their wines in the Alsatian mode. Alsace is located in France, on the border of Germany, and as you may recall from long-ago history classes, has been hotly contested by all the surrounding nations for centuries. The wines are mostly whites. Willakenzie uses Alsatian vine clones and Alsatian yeasts in creating a sophisticated wine with beautiful notes of white peach, mango and honeysuckle. Incredibly refreshing and dry, with nice acidity and a noticeably long finish for a white.

 

 

Rusden "Bakery Hill" Cabernet Sauvignon

Barossa Valley, Australia

Was $22; SALE $20

 

We've still got a bit of this great, 92-point rated wine (Wine Advocate), and it's a knockout for $20. Explosive black fruit is matched by fine acidity, smooth tannins and a luscious texture. Like Sarah and Sparky Marquis (of the Mollydooker and Marqus Philips line), Christine and Dennis Canute are a husband-and-wife team who make seriously powerful wines that grab your attention. Christine is a 5th generation Barossa wine-grower. Now taken over by their son Christian, they recently released the Bakery Hill Cab as part of a value line (which gives you some sense of the prices of their regular line!). Low yield, low production wine (only 400 cases made) that shows true craft and care.

Wine Tasting  / Wine Dinner . . . Coming Soon

 

Expect to hear some details soon regarding our next events: a tasting at Marche in late January, and a wine dinner at City House in early February. We're excited to start these back up after our holiday hiatus!
