Le Deves Visan

Cotes du Rhone 2009

Le Deves comes from 30-year-old vines. Olivier uses a blend of Grenache (90%) and Syrah (10%). The heavy emphasis in the blend is on the Grenache because Grenache is so successful in Visan because of it higher altitude and cooler nights.

Le Deves is a wine with great lively acidity which gives it great freshness. You’ll taste lots of black cherry and currant fruit with some notes of licorice and minerals. You will be transported to the south of France.  Cynthia Hurley, Importer

Mt. Beautiful

Pinot Gris 2009  $18.99

North Canterbury, New Zealand

This full-bodied Pinot Gris shows ripe Pear William fruit flavors combined with a hint of nuttiness and a spiced almond character on the palate. The creamy mouth-feel is enlivened by the crispness of wild plums, finishing smooth. This wine will develop very well in the bottle over the next two to three years.

Sokol Blosser Evolution

Oregon $15.99

We like this extraordinarily food-friendly white blend from Oregon.  You can match this wine from light salads to the hottest fusion-style cuisine. Intense tropical fruit notes up front and a crisp, clean finish.  Every new bottling has its own subtle and fresh personality. The 9 grapes tie together perfectly, creating a smooth, layered white wine sure to please the holiday crowd at your home
