2010 Grand Estates Riesling

“Intense aromas of apples and pears are complemented by a hint of minerality and orange blossoms. Rich, opulent flavors of tropical fruit are accentuated by crisp acidity, leading to a lingering, vibrant finish.”

Riondo Prosecco IGT NV
rp|90

This sparkling wine is produced in full respect of ancient traditions, using Prosecco grapes grown on the Veneto hills. Characterized by a fine, light perlage and a fresh and aromatic perfume. It is perfect both as an aperitif and as an accompaniment to light dishes. Smooth with lemon, melon, honey and almond flavours.

90 Points-Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate “This effusively fruity, light-bodied offering offers terrific floral notes, persistent effervescence, and a clean, delicate finish. There is not much body or weight in this crystal clean, pure, sparkling white. It is an ideal aperitif. It is an amazing Prosecco.”

Molly Dooker Carnival of Love 2010

This wine celebrates our journey in life and our partnership in winemaking. Just as we use our separate abilities to enhance our winemaking, we blend the separate characters of these two classic varieties to create a wine that is powerful, opulent, elegant and seamless.

Molly Dooker "Two Left Feet" McLaren Vale 2010

A powerful blend of all our favourite red varieties, it has incredible depth and complexity. Named for what happens when Sparky dances with Sarah! The grapes were grown on the Longbottom vineyard in Padthaway, the Birchmore vineyard in Langhorne Creek, the Gemtree and Mollydooker vineyards here in McLaren Vale. Barrel fermented and matured in 88% American and 12% French oak using 52% new and 48% one year old barrels. Pair with pizza, pasta, anything with a bit of spice, lasagne, pork, veal, osso bucco, lambshanks and cheese.

Molly Dooker "The Maitre D" McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

This is a classic Aussie Cabernet with an intense varietal nose and delicious ripe fruit. This wine is named after Sparky, who earned money to put himself through winemaking college as a left-handed Maitre D'. The grapes were grown on the Longbottom vineyard in Padthaway, the Mollydooker vineyards in McLaren vale and the Belladarren vineyard in Langhorne Creek. Barrel fermented and matured in 77% American and 33% French oak using 49% new and 51% one year old barrels. Pair with chicken liver pate, duck, roast lamb, mushroom risotto, veal, quail and pork

Molly Dooker "The Boxer" McLaren Vale Shiraz 2010

Complexed by combining the regional flavours of grapes, this wine has incredible power and purity. The grapes were grown on the Longbottom vineyard in Padthaway, the Birchmore vineyard in Langhorne Creek and the Mollydooker vineyards here in McLaren Vale. Pair with BBQ, steak, ribs, anything with a bit of spice.

91 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
'Matured in American oak, 57% new, the 2009 The Boxer Shiraz has a very deep garnet-purple color and intense blackberry, licorice, tar, menthol and cocoa bean aromas. Very full-bodied and with medium-firm fine-grained tannins and generous, warm-berry flesh, it is nicely balanced by crisp acid, finishing long...

Réserve Blanc de Blancs Brut
The secret of sparkling wines is the blend, whether they are from Champagne or other regions of France. This is the winemaker’s art. It is the choices he makes that determines what is often referred to as the House style. The style of Charles de Fère is to voluntarily refuse territorial limits, building close partnership relations with growers so that we can select cuvées from northerly vineyards for their freshness and elegance, together with cuvées from southern vineyards for ripe fruit, body and smoothness. This bold approach adds finesse, structure, and a complex harmony of flavors that makes Charles de Fère what it is today.

NV Nicolas Feuillatte Brut 12%

Notes of quince, apple and a hint of white mushroom all topped with a ribbon of sweet vanilla/lemon taffy. Bright with plenty of acid that lends this a dry profile, though there is a nice touch of sugar here accenting the lemon, apple and lightly toasty bread notes. The finish is nicely vibrant and full of lemony acids and decent sugar driven length that ends with a flash of baked apple. Easy, gentle style with good flavors. 88pts

Monte Antico means ancient mountain in Italian. In the world of fine wines, a unique combination of quality, reliability and value since 1977, this label belongs to Neil & Maria Empson, who launched the Super Tuscan five years after founding the Neil Empson Selections. It was their special affinity to the heartland of Italy that led them to make their very own mark on Tuscan soil: with the Maestro of Italian winemakers, Franco Bernabei. They have styled the Tuscan grape per eccellenza and expressed its ultimate potential, complimenting it with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. The best selections are cherry picked according to harvest conditions in the individual terroirs and microclimates. The blend for Monte Antico is 85% Sangiovese, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Merlot. The best selections are blended and aged 1 year in oak (80% in Slovenian barrels, 20% in barrique) with at least 6 months bottle age. This wine is consistently one of Italy’s better values.

Bogle Winery - Merlot 10% OFF the Wine of the Day!!
WINEMAKER NOTES
Concentrated and full-bodied, the 2009 Merlot is a study in contrasts. Subtle and silky, yet bright and intense, this deep red wine is multifaceted. Black raspberry and dark cherry greet the nose, while the brighter fruit of ripe summer plum dazzles the palate. The toast and spice of twelve months in American oak seamlessly integrate with the tannin structure of this wine, leaving a long, lingering finish, which is ready to drink now through 2014.

10-14-11 Wine Tasting

Friday Night from 5pm until 8pm we will be having a wine sampling.

Our feature wine will be the Federalist Visionary.

Dry Creek estate-grown Federalist Zinfandel is hand-crafted to bring out the true individuality of the Zinfandel grape. The Dry Creek Valley has unique characteristics that make it especially well-suited for cultivation of this hearty, decidedly American grape. The valley receives pronounced afternoon heat, but our vines are also cooled by the night air that creeps up the Russian River Valley from the waters of the Pacific Ocean, producing evening and early morning fog. Our vineyard enjoys the luxury of extended “hang time,” which produces more mature fruit, and results in rich, full-bodied flavor characteristics. The Federalist Zinfandel has robust fruit with bright berry fruit character, and its lively acidity allows it to partner well with a wide variety of foods.
