Moet et Chandon
Dom Pérignon 2000
Champagne, France $160
Fresh, crystalline, and sharp, the wine reveals airy,
gentle richness before exhaling peaty scents. Notes of aniseed and dried
ginger linger. Only an outstanding harvest is worthy of Dom Pérignon vintage champagne. This
vintage matured in the champagne cellars of Epernay for seven years to express
its full personality. Smooth, mellow & all-encompassing.
Poet’s Leap Riesling 2007
Columbia Valley, WA $48
Loaded with honeysuckle, melon, pear, peach and hints
of sweet grapefruit, this juicy wine perfectly captures the intensity of
Washington Rieslings and the complexity of German wines. 94 points Wine
Enthusiast.
Cakebread Cellars
Sauvignon Blanc 2006
Napa Valley, CA. $48
A fresh, vivacious wine that opens with bright lime,
kiwi, grapefruit, & green
melon aromas. Complementary hay and mineral scents add complexity. On the
sleek, medium-bodied palate, the wine offers zesty citrus and melon flavors
that culminate in a refreshingly flinty, mineral-tinged finish.
Louis Roederer
Cristal 2002
Champagne, France $400
The finest champagne to ever touch your lips! Precise,
silky, balanced style, and a harmonious, powerful, rich body with great purity.
The texture is infinitely silky, concentrated and flavorsome with an explosion
of ripe fruit, red fruit, white chocolate and caramel. A powerful and elegant
wine with a crescendo of sensations that attains a true harmony of flavors
and perfect integration. 98 points Wine Enthusiast.
Newton Vineyard
Napa Valley, CA.$75
One of California’s most glorious Chardonnays and
still somewhat under the radar. Unfiltered, full-bodied, fleshy and rich,
with notes of honeysuckle, poached pear, brioche and white currants. Subtle
new oak lends purity and stature.
"Wine is the
most civilized thing in the world.” Ernest
Hemingway
