3 Great Deals on Wine!
Schramsberg Mirabelle Brut Rose NV
$27.99 regular/$19.99 sale
From the first California winery to challenge Champagne in quality sparkling wines, Schramsberg Mirabelle Rosé has been a favorite of ours for years. Composed of 100% Pinot Noir from Schramsberg's select cool-climate vineyards in Carneros, Anderson Valley, and the Sonoma and Marin coastal areas of Northern California. Wine Spectator called it "A rosé with serious intentions, this has a delicate pink hue and floral strawberry and spicy yeast roll aromas. The flavors show good focus, offering raspberry, Gala apple, ginger and fig flavors." 93 Points WS.
2006 Hartford Court Land's Edge Vineyard Pinot Noir
$44.99 regular/$29.99 sale
One of the loveliest Sonoma Coast Pinot Noirs we've found, with notes of red berries and nutmeg and a very smooth finish. The previous vintage received 96 points from Wine Enthusiast... perhaps this year they'll do it again!
2007 Rombauer Chardonnay
$35.99 regular/$24.23 sale ($285.00 case price)
One of our perennial favorites in California Chardonnay, this special bottling from the Carneros appellation is once again fresh and lively on the nose, with flavors of ripe apple and white fruits and a clean, vanilla-laden touch of oak.
