California, Anderson Valley

Tasting Notes:
Roederer Estate Brut is the first California sparkling wine to be produced by Champagne Louis Roederer. The same attention is given to the oak-aged reserve wines as in France, allowing them to produce a champage with appealing Chardonnay-based flavors such as honeysuckle, pear and hazelnut. Oak-aged reserve wines from the Estate's cellars make up 10% to 20% of the final Roederer Estate cuvée. It is aged two years on the yeast.

Australia, Barossa Valley

Tasting Notes:
"Inky ruby. Intensely perfumed bouquet of dark berries, candied cherry and smoky Indian spices. Broad, fleshy red and dark berry flavors are impressively deep and subtly sweet, with notes of licorice and bitter chocolate adding complexity. Smooth and seemingly tannin-free on the persistent, sappy finish." 91 Stephen Tanzer, International Wine Cellar

"Dense and ripe, this is a bit alcoholic, but it's distinctive and bright with currant and persimmon flavors. Finishes with allspice and cinnamon notes. Drink now through 2015." 90 Wine Spectator

"Deep purple to black color with aromas of raspberries, spice, fennel, espresso and milk chocolate. On the palate its very clean and fruit friendly, medium body with firm but textured tannins. The acid and tannins balance the wine's red and dark cherry flavors." Winemaker's Notes

Food Pairing: Filet Mignon w/ Wine Reduction Sauce

Oregon, Willamette Valley

Tasting Notes:
An Editors' Choice" from Wine Enthusiast: "Though fruit-driven, forward and accessible, this surprises with the chewy density of its midpalate, and the depth and texture of the finish. It begins with somewhat sweet with candy flavors of raspberries, red currants and Bing cherries. Then it opens up, adding moist earth, minerals, flint and wisps of chocolaty smoke. Firm acidity and a balanced structure complete this classically proportioned and well-defined wine. An amazing 51,000 cases were made." (4/1/2008) This might be better than the 2005. Clear and vibrant, this wine has a beautiful dark color and aromas of mixed berries, earth, smoke, violets, Asian spices and minerals. In the mouth, the wine mirrors the aromatics, with a succulent texture and good acidity. Beautifully balanced between richness and power, this wine possesses amazing depth and purity.

Food Pairing: Poultry in a cream sauce

Spain, Sardon de Duero

Tasting Notes:
This solid red delivers cherry, plum, licorice and mint flavors, a bit austere but fresh and clean. Pretty berry and floral notes emerge on the finish.

This wine arises from a careful selection of Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from the best plots on our estate. Aging for twelve months in casks highlights its unique character. Its personality makes it a pleasant, warm, complex wine, perfect for tasting and drinking any time, especially with tapas or lamb.
