CLUB WRITEUPS

August 2006 Specialty Club

2001 Corison Kronos Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
It´s nice to be able to offer a powerhouse Napa Cabernet Sauvignon from a top winemaker to this club!  This is the Corison Estate vineyard that only produces about a ton of fruit per acre.  The wine offers the kind of powerful fruit you´d expect both from this winemaker and this region and vintage.  We have a tiny amount left, and it goes for $65.00.

2005 Domaine Tempier Rosé
Every year, this is one of the finest (and hardest-to-get) rosés in the world.  It comes from the Bandol region of southern France, and is primarily made from Mourvedre, which explains the dark fruit and lovely herbs-de-Provence in the nose.  It´s $29.75, and we have a small amount left.  Enjoy!
