American White Wines

Greenwood Ridge Riesling 2001 Mendocino Ridge, CA
Variety and purity is the key to Riesling, and it can only be achieved in a very cool climate. Greenwood Ridge allows full flavor maturity, while retaining sufficient acidity to push the fruit forward, literally framing its freshness. Steely apricot, hints of pineapple and mango make this wine ideal with fruit, cheese and nearly any chicken dish you can imagine.

Greenwood Ridge Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc 2000 Anderson Valley, CA
The floral, fleshy, feminine apple-and-melon-fruited Semillon fills in the open spaces of the flinty, lean, masculine Sauvignon Blanc, with its fresh grass, tart lemon, and hints of tobacco. A dollop of French oak lends the spice of graham toast and elegant creaminess to the texture.

Robery Mondavi Private Selection Chardonnay 2001 Coastal County, CA $22.00 a bottle
Aromas of tropical fruit, vanilla and toasty oak compliment the buttery, pineapple flavors in this smooth and creamy chardonnay.

Clos Pegase Chardonnay 2001 Napa Valley, CA
It is the vineyard's inherent aromatic and taste persona, such as nectarine, white peach and acacia blossom that infuses this wine with its distinctive flavors. To fully capture these traits, the wine is decanted off its lees and, after a gentle clay fining, it is bottle unfiltered.

International White Wines

Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio 2000 Italy
Soft, round fruit fills the mouth with ripe, juicy flavors. A long finish glides into tones of ripe apples and lichee nuts. A wine to be enjoyed alone, as an aperitif, or with shellfish, fowl and light meals that include vegetarian dishes.

Tin Cows Chardonnay 1999 Australia
The aroma is a blend of peach, fruit, nuts and spice, along with hints of cashews and lees. Seven months in the barrel adds a suggestion of oak complexity. The palate delivers these same flavors with creamy length, tightened by firm acid.

Cape Indaba Chardonnay 2000 South Africa
This honey-colored chardonnay is an elegant mouthful of citrus and crisp green apple fruits, with hints of vanilla and peaches on the nose and palate. World-wide sales of Cape Indaba Wines fund the Cape Indaba Scholarship established to educate a new generation of South African Winemakers.

Cape Indaba Sauvignon Blanc 2000 South Africa
A delicious, tropical-fruit Sauvignon with hints of cut grass and green peppers. The full, ripe fruit aromas carry onto the palate and conclude with a long-lasting fresh finish.

Deen de Bortoli Vat 7 Chardonnay 1999 Australia
Pale lemon yellow in color, the 1999 Deen de Bortoli Chardonnay displays intense ripe stone fruit aromas, particularly white peach, and layers of spicy oak on the nose. The palate is soft and rich with fleshy, peachy fruit rounding out the stylish, subtly complex palate supported by crisp acidity.

Chateau La Graviere Bellfond 1999 Bordeaux, France
A noteworthy Sauvignon Blanc with a clean mineral and fresh fruit flavors that fill the palate. A crisp finish that lingers in the mouth.

Pierre Sparr Pinot Gris 1999 Alsace, France
Fruity with delicate dried fruit and peachy aromas, off-dry, supple, round, well balance, elegant with a pleasant acidity and a clean finish. Enjoy with game, fishes, aperitif or even with foie gras.

Pio Cesare Arneis 2000 Alba, Italy
This very rare and very special Italian varietal is traditionally planted in the Northern Piemonte region of Italy. The wine is crisp, yet has a haunting, delectable flavor of intertwined mineral and fruit notes, with hints of lemon peel, white peach, honeydew melon, and finishes with a clean, honeyed note.

American Red Wines

Alderbrook Zinfandel 1998 Dry Creek County, CA
The wine opens with a vibrancy of red fruit tones. These aromas gradually resolve into raspberry, cranberry, cinnamon, and rose petal characters among others. A mixture of French and American oak barrel aging lends toasty length to the finish.

Alderbrook Pinot Noir 1998 Dry Creek County, CA
The wine shows cherry, cedar and graham in the nose. By mouth, one encounters more cherry and cranberry flavors, as well as hints of leather and forest floor to support the fruit. The bright acidity carries the flavors of this soft supple wine. The finish is elegant with hints of cocoa powder on the tongue from aging in 100 French oak barrels for nine months.

Bridgeview Pinot Noir ''Blue Moon'' 1998 Oregon
The majority of the wine has been barrel aged. This wine has fresh, ripe fruit flavors, shwoing balck cherry and raspberry on the palate. Complex in structure, with an elegant finish.

Cartlidge & Brown Merlot 2000 Napa County, CA
The wine shows a deep garnet color. Aromas of red and black currants carry through in the mouth, augmented by black cherry, plum and subtle oak. A smooth texture and mild tannins contribute to the pleasing balance of this medium-bodied wine.

Eschol Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon 1999 Napa County, CA
Deep color that's loaded with black cherry, a hint of tobacco and toasty-leather notes. Fills the mouth with intense fruit flavors and has some good tannins that linger to a smooth finish.

Frog's Leap Cabernet Sauvignon 2000 Napa Valley, CA
This wine has a very firm structure: rich, black cherry fruit, chocolate, and spicy oak overtones. The limited supply of this quality wine has greatly increased the demand for Frog's Leap.

Miner Family Sangiovese 1999 California
Cal-Ital is generally the word thrown about to describe the wines made from Italian grape varietals grown in California. This sangiovese offers up radiant bing cherry fruit and strawberry jam flavors backed by notes of dried tea leaves, mocha and a touch of earth. The frisky acidity serves the wine well on the table allowing it to share space with a wide array of dishes.

Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon 1999 Sonoma,California
Richly textured wine with intense, ripe flavors of black cherry, black berry, plum and cassis. Slight notes of tobacco and spice and a subtle framework of oak and vanilla complete this delicious wine.

Firm, intense and complex, if somewhat exotic style, with spice, beefy currant, soy bean, plum and floral notes, showing firm tannins on the finish.

Clos Pegase Cabernet Sauvignon 1999 California
Flush with balck cherry, cassis, mocha, chocolate and dried flowers wedded to silky, mouth-coating tannins, our Cabernet is indeed an expression of the best that the Napa Valley has to offer.

Clos Pegase Merlot 1999 California
Redolent of red currants, raspberries and plum cherries with hints of mint and sous bois, our Merlot possesses the rich tanning structure and natural acidity to age and evolve in the more classic manner preferred by our Bordeaux brethren.

International Red Wines

The grapes for the Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon were harvested from 33-year-old vines grown at the foothills of the Andes Mountains in the Maipo Valley. The wine shows a deep ruby color and has intense aromas of red fruits, blackberries, cassis and toasty nuances, enhanced by 12 months of oak aging.

This merlot shows a lovely black cherry color with intense aromas of red fruits and spicy nuances.

Deen de Bortoli Vat 8 Shiraz 1999 Australia
Intense red in color with purple tones, the 1999 Deen De Bortoli Vat 8 Shiraz is a well-balanced, full bodied wine. Aromas of lifted white pepper, rich spice and smoky cigar box complement the complex palate of pepper, liquorice and chocolate. The use of American oak adds a lasting, subtle vanillin flavor before finishing smooth, firm and long.

Rufino Chianti 1998 Italy
A complex bouquet offers black cherry, soy, game and anise notes, and opens nicely to an expansive palate with earth and leather notes accenting the fruit. The dark finish, with its coffee and orange-peel notes, shows some of the intrigue of the nose.
