Do you love a great Pinot Noir? We've got the perfect wine- 2009 Angels Landing. Quality Pinot Noir from Sonoma Coast always seems to be $30 and up, but Angels Landing is a steal at 16.99! This label has become a household name for great quality just like Robert Mondavi, Joseph Phelps, etc. It's packed with plenty of ripe cherries, blackberries, and plum. Very silky on the mid-palate and the finish. It also is not overdone with the oak. Just the great fruit flavors you get from ripe Pinot Noir! |
Is chocolate on the menu this Valentine's Day? This may be the wine for you! From one of our favorite producers comes a fantastic expression of the Merlot grape. Soft and lush on the nose with spice box complexity, followed immediately by lush, velvety blackberry. A lovely, long finish with vanilla, oak and cocoa notes. |
The candles are lit- what could be more romantic than an Italian dinner? Pair any red sauce with this Chainti Classico Reserva. It starts with crisp, ripe red berry and cherry fruit aromas. A fresh, acidic note is offset by classic Sangiovese flavors of earth, mushrooms and leather. Luscious and velvety, with notes of blackberry and raspberry fruit, along with a nice tannic structure. Shows perfect ripeness and balance. |
