Clesi "San Bernabe Vineyard" Monterey Malvasia Bianca 2014
New low price! Regular Vin Chicago retail - $13.99!
Winemaker's Notes
"This wine smells sweet, but proves dry on the palate. The aromas are incredibly floral and pronounced. Jasmine, white peach, apricot aromas are complemented with grapefruit, honeysuckle and lemon flavors on the palate. This wine is crisp with strong minerality in its youth and matures boasting more viscosity and texture. Perfect to sit and sip, but also pairs well with equally aromatic dishes. Complementary styles of food include Thai and even Mexican dishes."

(12/2016) Don't let our low price fool you, this is one tasty and serious Cava! Although labeled as "NV," it is made solely from the 2013 vintage. Produced using the Metodo Tradicional (Champagne Method) it offers wonderful depth and - given the price - quite unexpected complexity. Delicious fresh apple and pear flavors are layered with notes of dried flowers, bread dough, hazelnut, toast and a streak of minerality. This all-purpose sparkler is bright and medium-bodied, making it a great choice for large social gatherings. There is also enough structure here to enjoy with spicy Asian cuisine or fresh seafood!

Wine Advocate
(3/2016) "The 2013 Les Cimels Costières de Nîmes offers tons of character in its olive tapenade, peppery herbs, mint and currant-laced bouquet. Medium-bodied, polished, fruit forward and downright hard to resist, it should drink nicely for 3-4 years. The blend is the standard 60% Syrah, 30% Carignan and 10% Grenache and it's always aged all in concrete tanks. Drink Date 2016 - 2020."

Adami "Garbel" Prosecco NV
Winemaker's Notes
"Garbel, which in ancient local dialect means a dry, crisp, pleasantly tart wine, is produced from the hilly vineyards in the Colli Trevigiani area. The ample nose releases crisp-edged, complex fruit notes, and the palate is full-flavored with a crisp acidity. A wonderfully versatile sparkler, Garbel's 13 grams of residual sugar place it between the Brut and Extra Dry styles, making it perfect for wine bars as well as celebrations."

(4/2018) The latest release of this favorite New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc value is lip-smackingly delicious. Like a basket of fresh fruit, you will find flavors of grapefruit, lemon zest and lime zest with additional notes of honeydew melon, green apple and starfruit. Classic Sauvignon Blanc aromas of fresh cut grass and bell pepper add to the complexity. The finish is long, mouthwatering and refreshing. At our low price, this is one to stock up by the case and use as a house wine or for entertaining at large gatherings.

Vinous, Stephen Tanzer
(10/2017) "Medium red-ruby. Musky aromas of black cherry, blackberry, licorice, cocoa powder and herbs. Plush, velvety and seamless, offering modest depth but good mouth coverage to its black cherry, dark chocolate, menthol and licorice flavors. Finishes with dusty tannins and modest length. A very easygoing Merlot with good texture and fruit."

(9/1/2018) "Best Buy - Delicious cherry and plum flavors are accented by touches of black tea, rhubarb and forest floor in this complex, medium-bodied wine. It's slightly soft in feel, but has light tannins and enough acidity to give it some snap."
