Plum Creek Palisade Red $15.00
A surprisingly awesome display of how a Colorado wine can be done. This Palisade blend is balanced in all the right places. Fruit, earth, tannin and acid come together in a lovely glass of juice. Goes to show not all Colorado wine is sweet, sweet, sweet!
Craggy Range Te Kahu $20.00
This gorgeous red blend comes to us from the equally gorgeous north island of New Zealand. Grown in the renowned Gimblett Gravels vineyard, a quintessential Bordeaux blend of merlot, cab sav and franc, petit verdot and malbec. Big red fruits, herbs, fennel, leather and eucalyptus in a big body blend.
Rollan de By $33.00
A beautiful left bank Bordeaux, Merlot dominant with the usual supporting roles of Cab Sav/Franc and Petit Verdot. Rustic character showing cassis, dried red fruits, licorice, vanilla and baking spices. For a 2011 it still has some ageability if so inclined.
Chateau Belgrave $66.00
From a Grand Cru Classe vineyard in Haut-Medoc, this Cab dominant Bordeaux is something special. Complex aromas and flavors of red fruits, rocky soil, herbs, pepper and fennel. Grippy tannins and lengthy finish. Allow this to open up and it will tell you all its secrets.
