RED BURGUNDY SALE Wine Alert :
BUT HEY, That's Only One Thing Happening here this week. We also have all this
week wines arriving that are going to be on DEEP DISCOUNTS! Today we have some
great red burgundy wines coming from the Jeanne-Marie De Champs selections.
1) RAPET PERE & FILS " En Bully " 2008 Bourgogne On Special for $19.99 /
Reg : $29.99 a bottle ) : smooth, classic style, medium-to-light bodied : gets
richer and fuller as it opens gracefully on it's own time. You can't rush
burgundy. You will be sorry if you do!
2) RENE LECLERC Gevrey Chambertin On Special for $39.99 / Reg : $47.99 :
pretty drop-dead amazing as it opens ever so gracefully, wings unfurling, like
petals of a flower responding to the sound, to the light - to the oohs and ahhs
that we emit as we slowly taste and sip.
3) FERY Cote De Beaune On Special for $29.99 / Regularly $36.99 : more
up-front fruit, more a blend of the old and new world styles. Medium-bodied and
really quite flattering to the palate. Easier to sip and delight and feel
rather expansive and contented with oneself and one's lot in life. Oh yeah.
Real Value-Champagne SALE Alert :
Incredible LOUIS De VARENCY N.V. ( non-vintage ) brut dry French champagne On
Special for $28.99 a bottle. We have already gone through three drops of this
and it is now getting really low so come get some while we still have it!
Unbelievably smooth , bright and refreshing and MOST OF ALL : elevating!
WE ALSO ARE RECEIVING Italian Wines :
FROM THE NEIL EMPSON PORTFOLIO -
TWO Whites -
1) BUCCI 2008 Verdicchio CI Dei Castelli di Jesi DOC half-bottles ( 375ml
size , easy to take on picnics and to concerts or on hikes ) : On Special for
$13.99. It does not get more complex or more laden with mineral " jewels " and
essences of citrus and " grounding " earth and land and roots that stretch to
the opposite ends of the earth. Now that's a stretch : that's one big reach!
It's in the taste : just like a great bottle of red : there are volumes of
stories here, layers upon layers of flavors that become decipherable with
attention and patience and practice.
2) FARNESE Pecorino Casale Vecchio 2008 On Special for $13.99. I need to
try this again. It's been six months since I last had it so I will open a
bottle here in the store tomorrow during the sale.
Six Dry Reds -
1) MATANE Primitivo 2007 On Special for $13.99. The California Zinfandel
in the DNA tests matches up the most closely to the Primitivo grape. Pretty
heady and intoxicating dry red. Feel the earth and the grapes from the vines
that together with the roots connect the soil with the air and all the elements
and gather them together into one series/flights of tastes on the one's palate
when one is patient and not in a rush! Cheers.
2) PODERI COLLA Pinot Noir ( Pinot Nero ) " Campo Romano " DOC On Special
for $27.99. This is from the Piemonte region of Italy that is responsible for
the great barolos and Barbarescos of the world. Here we have something more
velvety and elegant and certainly lighter, too for meals that require something
perhaps with more subtle, refined flavors?
3) PODERI COLLA Dolcetto d'Alba " Pian Balbo " 2008 On Special for $13.99.
Here we have a really famous, great everyday dry red from the Piemonte that
delivers the ol-world/traditional style of wine-making that is pretty
enthralling and mermerising especially when combined in these cooler days and
nights with some good comfort foods. Cheers.
4) POSERI COLLA Nebbiolo D'Alba magnums ( 1.5ml bottle size which is
double the normal 750ml bottle ) 2007 On Special for the very reasonable price
of ONLY $39.99 a bottle! This is the grape that makes the Barolo and the
Barbaresco wines that are so famous. In a magnum size like this the wine ages
ever so more gracefully and is slower to reveal all of it's layers and layers
of hidden charms. This is a FABULOUS DEAL to buy and give or to keep and to
wait for that special/right time to enjoy it when the stars and everything else
are aligned just so! 5) TERRABIANCA Merlot " Il Tesoro " 2005, On Special
for $33.99, this is from a great producer as well, this time in Tuscany.
Between PODERI COLLA and TERRABIANCA we have sold hundreds of cases over the
past ten years. We have had the owner of PODERI COLLA and the international
sales manager of TERRABIANCA here at least two-three times over these past ten
years as well. They are family, they are genuine, they make top-flight/
world-class dry Italian red wines and you all have supported them over the
years. Come again tomorrow, Wed and Thursday and buy these individually or
include them in a case and save 20% OFF your purchase ( as long as each bottle
is over $20 ). WHAT INCREDIBLE DEALS!
THERE ARE MANY MORE " Goodies " But No More Time so you will all have to come
and be surprised and pleased! You will not be disappointed I promise you that.
SO : COME SEE US - I will open some of these bottles and share them with you.

TONIGHT, Wed. Oct. 4th, 2011 : Hugh Hamilton of his own winery in the
Mclaren Vale of South Australia came by this morning to say : " g'day ". We
spoke for awhile and he is able to come by this evening at 5 PM and be here to
taste what we had in the store of his on such notice : some Jim Jim Shiraz (
$13.99 ) and some of his Mongrel Sangiovese dry red blend ( $18.99 ) 2009

Mourvedre 100% BOTH On Special for $13.99 or maybe even less ( they are both :
killer " - I just quickly sampled them and will buy them for the store as they
are excellent. The red is lush and svelte and so EASY, the white dips and soars
high like the tail feathers of an eagle - what vistas, what fancies, what
ribald meals and stories one can live out themselves! GO SEE MARK from 6-8PM
for these Languedoc- Rousillon wines!
TOMORROW : If Hugh Hamilton has time he will be back from 5-8PM and we
will pour his Chardonnay and his Shiraz. It will be fun, it will be Aussie, and
it will all be anticipation of our BIG-THEME Aussie Wine-Tasting on Wednesday,

live/experience the Aussie life-mantra-life-style-spell-charm-attitude-outlook
and everything AUSSIE!

of CARDINAL POINT with Sarah Gorman that is the wife of wine-maker Peter
Gorman. Reds and white including a Barrel Select Chardonnay ( $19.99 ) and some
delicious Cabernet Franc red called Rockfish Red ( $20.99 ) and more - a "
Union " red blend also that includes 30% Tannat ( $27.99 ), and a dry white
blend called A6 that is Viognier and Chardonnay blended together ( $22.99 ).

celebrate and draw attention also to the " Hoof Fund " ( suggested donation of
$10 a person ) to provide support police horses in the form of funds,
materials, labor, and public awareness - and much more. We may even have a
mounted park police officer stop by to lend a hand and a visual delight, too.
SATURDAY, October 8th, 2011 ( 2-6PM ) : WE have Theresa Morrison here to
pour both some of the South African wines of BEAUMONT and BLAAUWKLIPPEN as well
as more of the CHATEAU BIANCA wines of Oregon. JOIN US : NEVER any charge.
