Much appreciation to Jarrod, owner/winemaker, from Alexandria Nicole Winery, his able assistant winemaker, Jose, and Carl, Click Wholesale Distributors, for showing us these fabulous wines. And to Ryan for his cheese tasting.

This week it’s back to Walla Walla. Please welcome back Dominic, special agent for the following wines that he will show us this Saturday;

`09 Tempus Cellars Riesling - Inspired by Mosel Rieslings, Joe aimed to express clean, precise fruit of white peach and apricot, while finishing with crisp minerality. This is the perfect spring/summer time wine, served on its own or with spicy cuisine. $17.99

`06 Fort Walla Walla Cellars Syrah - This Walla Walla Valley Syrah is spicy and intense! Earthy plum fruit tones satisfy one's taste buds for this complex Syrah. The floral fruit flavors include traces of wild berries with a hint of pepper. The wine's mild oak finish, combined with gentle tannins help tame this very sophisticated Syrah. A wonderful addition to anyone’s wine cellar. $27.99

`06 Kontos Cellars Merlot - This sexy Merlot is all about the body! Never pretentious, she is
perfect for any occasion and is loads of fun to have around. An abundance of flavors mingle in all corners of the palate creating a beautifully fun and entertaining wine. Be sure to keep a close eye on this one, or she might wind up going home with someone else! $27.99

`07 Kontos Cellars LVLL Alatus Red Blend - Alatus - “with wings” Named after grandpa Tom “Doc” Campbell’s sailboat in Port Ludlow. This blend was created with tastes and preferences in mind. Consisting of equal parts Cab Sauv, Cab Franc, and Merlot. Bold, with great nuances. The Alatus Blend begins with Tobacco and Vanilla. Robust flavors of Cherry, Dark Chocolate, and Fig, finishing with Black Licorice. This wine says it all, and a great example of what you will come to expect from Kontos Cellars. Enjoy spring 2009 thru 2018. $31.99

`06 Fort Walla Walla Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon - Smooth and velvety! The wine is deep and concentrated yet elegant and stylish with dark ruby red fruit. A wonderful wine with beautiful rich aromas of espresso, chocolate mocha, red and black currents with a hint of vanilla. This is a wine with excellent structure and balance, with a long and pleasant finish. The three oak cooperage complements but doesn't overwhelm the fruit. Another outstanding vintage for anyone’s cellar! $34.99

Gift Certificates are available - a great gift for any wine lover.
