Wine

Cloudline Pinot Noir
Oregon- A beautiful, dark ruby color, the nose develops well in the glass, and it possesses an intense aromatic bouquet, reminiscent of spices, blackcurrant and other red and black berries. On the palate, Cloudline offers a caressing texture and a long flavorful finish.

Rodney Strong Merlot
Sonoma, CA- Supple and well oaked aroma, with a toasty, buttery edge to the plum and cherry laced fruit flavors. Body is Firm and chunky, but well made, with a complex finish.

Grover Voignier Art Collection From India
Art Collection Viognier has a pleasant refreshing and rich mouthfeel with intense aromas of peach, apricot and tropical fruits complemented by floral notes and a hint of honey. Paresh Maity, the great Indian painter, focuses on faces with their myriad expressions, closely cropped and juxtaposed with their surroundings.

Callaway Chardonnay
The aromas of this wine are reminiscent of baked apples. The smooth mouthfeel brings forward fruit flavors of apples, pineapple and lemon peel, which are highlighted by toasty oak and vanilla characteristics that lead to a silky finish. Our Coastal Chardonnay is a wonderful companion to a wide variety of foods.

Evolution Red Blend
The blend includes Syrah, Sangiovese, Montepulciano and a splash of Evolution white. It's built for quaffing, and would be just as comfortable in a camp-friendly bota bag as on your dinner table. Cranberry fruit underlined with a strong streak of slate keeps it fresh and lively.

Fetzer Gewurztraminer
California- Passion fruit along with tangerine, mango and aromas of honey and orange spice join with pineapple, baked pears and hints of cinnamon. This wine can be zesty, and flavors of clove, orange and caramelized apples are evident.

Dark Horse Cabernet Sauvignon
Dark Horse Cabernet Sauvignon Red Wine is a bold, full bodied California wine with a velvety smooth taste and jammy dark fruit aromas.

Barefoot Mascato
Barefoot Moscato features lush, fruity aromas and a crisp, bright finish with a tantalizing twist of lemon and citrus. Perfect for pairing with spicy Asian cuisine, artisanal cheeses or light desserts

Listel Rose
Light pink color with hints of grey, leading to a bouquet of fresh red and citrus fruits. A supple, palate ensures long lasting balance and delicacy. A pleasant and refreshing wine.
