Greetings!
Now that we are open and settled in we would like to
take a chance to invite everyone to not only come down and see the
new digs, but to use our new beautiful wine room to its full
potential. The new space is inviting and provides ample space for
bottling, which means no more crowded wine bottling stations.
As we get back into the swing of things we'd also like
to mention that the first round of Limited wines have arrived and are
eagerly waiting to be made in our new facility. So if you
reserved either the Italian Piazza or Spanish Toro you can come
down and make it now. If you didn't reserve either and
are interested in making them then you are not alone, with
the move to our new location we have not promoted this round of
limiteds as we have others in the past, but we have ordered plenty of
extras. So give us a call or stop in and we will help you mix one up.
Below you will find the descriptions of the limited
wines for this year.

Italian Piazza
(Chardonnay Garganega)
Found in the heart of every town in Italy, a piazza
is where locals and tourists alike gather to enjoy a glass of wine
and unwind the stresses of the day. Italian culture is embodied by
these social gatherings and their love for food and wine. A perfect
accompaniment to any gathering, our Piazza will have you
reminiscing of a private table on a piazza in the center of a
quaint Italian town.
Enjoy this full bodied white wine, which receives its luscious
mouthfeel from fermentation on raisins in a white amarone
style experience. Note tropical fruit, peach and a touch of
minerality on the nose, which follows through to a palate with
a hint of raisins and elderflower.

TORO
(Tempranillo Grenache)
It is difficult to envision Spanish culture without
their infamous icon - the bull or Toro. A Toro is bold, aggressive
and intense, a fitting name for this powerful wine you are sure
never to forget.
This wine is an intense red characterized by cigar box
and dark fruit on the nose, finishing with dates, prunes and cherry
on the palate. Made in a Crianza style, toasted French oak
completes the experience.

TREK
(Malbec Syrah Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot )
Thoughts of Chile take you to the awe inspiring Andes
and the culture that surrounds them. Trek embodies the Chilean
lifestyle of living within the mountains with a down to earth
philosophy in a multitude of different microclimates and
geographies.
Opening with dark roasted notes of coffee and
chocolate with a hint of blackberries, this wine balances the best
of four classic varietals. Fermentation on Cabernet Merlot Genuwine
Winery Dried Grape Skins and French oak completes this monumental
taste experience.

HANG TEN
(Syrah Zinfandel Barbera )
California brings together the best of vine and sea.
Surfing and wine are essential to Californian culture. This wine
blends together three fun loving varietals captured in one
notorious Californian phrase "Hang Ten". Sit back, relax
and embody Californian lifestyle with this easy drinking wine sure
to impress.
Intense fruit flavours of dried fruits such as dates
are balanced by smooth chocolate and hints of vanilla. Your
experience is enhanced with fermentation on Hungarian oak cubes and
Shiraz Genuwine Winery Dried Grape Skins.

TANGO
(Pinot Grigio Chardonnay Torrontés)
A significant expression of Argentine culture, the
tango is smooth, sexy and romantic. The Argentine people have
gained global attention for their flawless tango and recently
received international praise for perfecting their wines. It is
their love for both that has inspired our wine 'Tango'.
Tango is a silky blend of three well loved Argentine white wines:
Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay and Torrentés.
A perfectly balanced expression of style, notes of apricot and
apple with a hint of spice dance on your palate. Graced lightly
with toasted oak, this wine has a dramatic flair that will have you
and your partner reaching for another glass.
