Talley Vineyards has moved from top grape grower to lauded producer of elegant estate-bottled, artisanal wines. This Estate Pinot Noir was produced entirely from Pinot Noir grapes grown in the Rosemary’s and Rincon Vineyards planted in the mid-1980s. It shows abundant black cherry and licorice notes with spice and toasty oak.

Laurel Glen Cabernet Sauvignon “Counterpoint”
2004 United States 50.00
Good bright ruby-red color and a rather wild nose that combines black cherry, licorice, and dark chocolate are typical results for Patrick Campbell’s Laurel Glen vineyard. It is dense, meaty
Cabernet Sauvignon that finishes with substantial sweet tannins
and excellent length.

Silverado Cabernet Sauvignon
2004 United States 65.00
A classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon with ripe jammy fruit and cola aromas coupled with hints of dried herbs is medium to full bodied with cherry, raspberry and mineral flavors. Lively acidity leads to a fruity and persistent finish.

Joseph Phelps Cabernet Sauvignon
2005 United States 75.00
The dark ruby colored 2005 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon resembles a classic Bordeaux both in aromatics and flavor. Integrated layers of cherry, currant, and cream follow a rich bouquet of cinnamon, spice, licorice, graphite and caramel. While
big-shouldered and meaty, the wine is satisfying to drink now with red meat dishes.

Cakebread Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon
2005 United States 100.00
The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon boasts aromas of black fig, blackberry, cassis, caramel, and mocha. Firmly structured and packed with layers of luxurious flavor, this lavishly endowed Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a treat now with grilled red meats and other hearty dishes.

Cliff Lede Cabernet Sauvignon
2005 United States 85.00
The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Stags Leap District opens with initial scents of rich raspberry, fig compote, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cardamom. A dense and meaty palate is flavored by black cherries, white pepper, and a fine-grained minerality. This is a well-focused medium-bodied Cabernet for grilled and braised meats.

Ca La Bionda Amarone
2004 Italy 85.00
Ultra ripe grapes are picked late and are left to dry on racks in
the winery attic until mid-winter. Processed in February the resulting wine has a deep ruby core with complex flavors of black cherry, licorice, bitter almond, and spice that persist on the palate with uncommon clarity.

Isole e Olena Cepparello
2005 Italy 100.00
Cepparello is quintessential Tuscan wine. Made purely from Sangiovese Grapes grown in the very heart of Chianti Classico. Paolo De Marchi – one of the best artisan producers in the world, has established a new standard for “Super-Tuscan” wines.

Etude Pinot Noir
2006 (Carneros, Napa) 70.00
The 2006 Estate bottling offers inviting cool climate aromatics of raspberry, pomegranate and sandalwood with a touch of turned earth. Classically structured, the palate bursts with flavors of sweet frambois strawberries, red cherries and mocha. The lush fruit combined with the baking spice notes from aging in French oak creates a defined Pinot Noir with elegance and length.
