Faiveley Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2006
Cherry nose with light cedary scent. Dry, light and very smooth, a keeper. This wine gets better when opened and can last a few years in the cellar.
Faiveley Chardonnay Bourgogne 2006
Gravel on the nose with light, smooth fruit. Fine chardonnay with a refreshing finish.
Clos la Chance Unoaked Chardonnay 2007
Nose has fine minerals and pear -rich finish. Acidity is balanced. I carry this wine in my store and am glad I do!

Pircas Negra Malbec 2008
Organic. Vegan. Wild thyme and lavender on the nose. Fruit is restrained but rich and not sweet. Tannins are nice at the end.
Four O'Clock Spring Seed Chardonnay
Nicely balanced between fruit and acidity. An easy drinking and full-bodied wine would stand up well to roasted pork or grilled fish.
Pircas Negra Torrontes 2007
Organic. La Rioja Region, grown in the Famatima Valley this white has a lovely apricot scent and a cremy almost sauternes like nose. Relatively dry with a full-bodied mouth feel.

Kung Fu Girl Reisling 2008
Evergreen Vineyard. Sweet, fruity, creamy finish- a little flat to me. Probably best with spicy food?
Unoaked Chardonnay 2007
Columbia Valley
Mineral-bright mouth with green apple. Very crisp for a chard. Thought it similar to Clos la Chance Unoaked Chardonnay, so will not have it in the store.
