Botromagno Rosé di Lulu
Italy

A very distinctive terroir, consisting of sandy soils of extremely low fertility; the vines must suffer to survive here, and they yield clusters that are few but extraordinarily rich. Rosé di Lulu, a deep pink in appearance, is firmly structured and with an unmistakable personality, one of the iconic wines of Puglia, the region that was first to achieve international success for this difficult to make wine style.
100% Nero di Troia
Appearance: A luminous, light pink.
Bouquet: Complex and full fruited, with nuances of liqueur cherries and mulberries.
Palate: Rich, alluring, multi-layered.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS
Salami, medium-aged cheeses, lamb stews.


Grape Abduction Company Rosé NEW
Slovenia

Grape: Žametna Črnina

Darker pink color bursting with notes of ripe wild berries, wild strawberries, and a hint of violet. On the palate, the wine is round, fruity, with a refreshing acidity after the mid-palate that carries the red fruit aromas to a long and smooth finish. Enjoy on any hot day (or not), on any occasion, by itself or with light fare.


Casa Bollen Sauvignon Blanc
Chile

Fresh, light, dry, and lively—this wine is as delicious and refreshing as it is elegant! Born of the gravely, mineral-rich soil of the Leyda Valley, this wine is everything we love about Chilean Sauvignon Blanc. Expressive with light tropical fruits of pink grapefruit, pineapple, and a hint of lime, this wine has a light body with a lengthy, mouth-watering finish. Perfect for warm evenings with friends or sunny days in the park, it’s a friendly wine that goes along well with a variety of foods and festivities!


Aslina Chardonnay NEW
South Africa

A deep, robust Chardonnay with notes of honey on the nose. The partial wooding gives this wine a unique edge while highlighting the stunning tropical fruit and limy character. On the palate, this Chardonnay offers a lingering finish and a mild buttery flavor, with undertones of vanilla and honeybush tea.


Ca'Viola Dolcetto d'Alba
Italy

The color is a very intense ruby-purple red. The nose expresses a complex floral and fruity bouquet, with notes of fresh hay, violets, currants and black cherry in the foreground. The mouth entry is firm and denotes excellent body, which is never at the expense of drinkability. Long and harmonious on the finish reminiscent of fruit.

*Open at least 30 minutes prior to serving*


Charles & Charles "Daisy" Cabernet Sauvignon 
Washington

75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Syrah
Varietals fermented with native yeast. Wines were combined into older barrels for 9 months. Blackberries, violets, cassis, tobacco, and forest floor dominate this full-bodied majority Cabernet Sauvignon wine, with a purity and balance between decadence and structure.
