THIS WEEK'S TASTING - SAT. NOV. 21 - 11 am until 6 pm

We are excited to welcome winemaker Matt Hulse from FIVE STAR CELLARS between 1 and 3:30 this Saturday. This will be a great time to get bottles signed for holiday gift giving or for your own cellar. The lineup will be: SANGIOVESE - $28.99 - Fragrant blueberry notes lead to the fresh taste of blackberry in the mouth. The "racy"acidity, with robust fruit highlights the finish. Smooth lingering flavors on the finish demand a fine meal.

SYRAH -$30.99 - Ripe and round, generous with plum and dried fruit coming through clearly. Balanced, with smoke and roasted coffee notes and a clean finish. Ideal with grilled meat.

CABERNET SAUVIGNON - $34.99 - Dark cherry and leather notes come through on the nose. Concentrated cherry flavors combine with clove and pepper spice to create a velvety texture. The finish shows off beautiful structure and balance

MERLOT - $32.99 - Intense cedar and spicy clove fill the senses. A lush mouth full of black cherry and pepper is offset with the balanced acidity. The caramel notes on the extended finish are framed with fine oak tannins.

PETIT VERDOT - CABERNET FRANC - $38.99 - Blend: 67% Petit Verdot, 33% Cabernet Franc - Opens with a burst of exotic spice and a hint of tobacco. Vibrant focused flavors of bing cherry and oak with a bright edge and good structure. Nice, balanced finish that lingers.


AND THERE IS MORE.........

STELLER - $56.99 - Blend: 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 5% Malbec - A gorgeous, exotically spiced nose provides beautiful entrance to the elegantly lush texture in the mouth. Chocolate covered cherries come to mind, balanced with lively acidity. Complex, seamless and stunning finish with beautiful length.

Also, if you need large format bottles for a get together or to lay down in your cellar we will have available the following: 2006 Cabernet - 3 Liter (Jeroboam which equals four bottles), and Magnums of 2007 Syrah, 2006 Merlot and 2006 Cabernet.

Let's make this a FIVE STAR WEEKEND! Get 10% off the shelf price this weekend only. That makes the prices: $26.09 for the Sangiovese, $27.89 for the Syrah, $31.49 for the Cabernet, $29.69 for the Merlot, $35.09 for the Petit Verdot/Cabernet Franc, and $51.29 for the Stellar.

Hope you can join us.

HOLIDAY LADY

The Kestrel Lady in Red HOLIDAY EDITION is in. The detail this year is great. If you look close at her list you can actually read real names not just see scribbles.

Pick yours up before they are gone.


SEE YOU SOON!
