Produced from a single hectare of vines in the heart of the Beaujolais appelation.  This pale pink rose has a light, floral nose and flavors of strawberry, red cherry and pomegranate, with lip-smacking acidity in the finish.  Perfect for warm-weather gatherings!

Name:  

2007 Walnut Block Pinot Noir "Single Vineyard"
Varietal:  

100% Pinot Noir
Location:   Marlborough, New Zealand
Notes:  

Grown in European style high density planting, using top quality Burgundy clones.  The canopy is meticulously worked on to ensure even ripening, intense flavors and good tannin structure.
100% handpicked and sorted into 15kg bins, then chilled overnight at 2oC to preserve delicate flavors.   The cold fruit is de-stemmed and crushed into open top fermenters.  Fermented using 100% wild yeast and aged for 12 months in high quality French barriques.
Crimson in color with aromas of dark berry fruits, with savory characters and a hint of charred oak.  The wild ferment has developed a complex palate with black cherry and a gentle savory  background  with good acid and fine tannin structure.

Name:   2010 Domaine Grand Nicolet Rasteau Vieilles Vignes
Varietal:  

70% Grenache, 30% Syrah
Location:   Rasteau, Rhone Valley, France
Notes:  
The wine is made from 60-year-old Grenache vines (70%) and 30-year-old Syrah vines (30% of the blend) from the blue marl and red and yellow clay soils of the appellation. The Grenache is aged in cement tanks and the Syrah in barrels. Yields were a tiny 27 hectoliters per hectare.

Big, mineral-driven and firm, with black cherry liqueur, spice-box, and new leather aromas and flavors all showing, this full-bodied, concentrated Rasteau needs to be decanted.
Price:   $24.99
