Tohu Sauvignon Blanc
This is a medium bodied Sauvignon Blanc with fragrant aromas of flowers and passionfruit. The 2006 vintage was made in the classic Marlborough style and has fresh zingy citrus flavors that linger on the palate. This wine is an excellent accompaniment to all types of seafood or great as an aperitif.
Fontana Candida Pinot Grigio
In vineyards that carpet the rolling hills of northeast Italy, the grapes for Fontana Candida Pinot Grigio are grown. The grapes have always thrived in this area, and the popularity of Pinot Grigio is ever-increasing due to its light, fruity aroma and refreshing taste.
Fontana Candida Pinot Grigio features a combination of quality and value that has been recognized by critics and consumers alike, and this easy-to-drink wine is excellent with food or as an aperitif.
Bodegas Borsao Red Wine
Medium ruby in color with aromas of bing cherry, strawberry and cloves. Smooth and juicy in the mouth with black cherry, strawberry and white pepper flavors finishing with supple tannins. A fruit bomb, but I like it Also a great value for everyday drinking.
Three Winds Wines Sauvignon Blanc
The long cool growing season here lends itself perfectly to the production of crisp and delicate wines, and this sauvignon blanc is no exception. More in the style of a Loire Valley Sancerre, with its rapier sharp mineral laden nose and fresh citrus fruits on the palate, this is the perfect accompaniment to grilled fish, oysters, or just by itself! Make this one your house white!
Three Winds Pinot Noir
Classic cherry notes with red fruit, very typical of the variety. Smooth on the palate, subtle oak nuances round off the great mouth feel and long finish.
From the hills of the Languedoc, our Pinot Noir is grown on a limestone “terroir” with a south facing aspect. The free draining soil ensures that the drying winds help encapsulate all the rich ripe berry flavors associated with all our Three Winds wines.
Three Winds Syrah
Red fruit and hint of spice on the nose. Plenty of structure. Soft tannins give this medium bodied wine a classic Syrah palate. Subtle oak nuances help to smooth out the long finish.
A Syrah that goes well with foods, an excellent wine for the price.
