Wine of the Week

DOMAINE DE PELLEHAUT ROSE' GASCONY, FRANCE (south-west on the Atlantic coast, on the Spanish border) 30% Merlot, 10 Syrah, 10 Malbec, 5 Pinot Noir, 25 Cabernet Sauvignon, 20 Tannat, all vinified separately in stainless steel vats to ensure freshness and lightness of body; that's a lot of different varietals just for a rose' wine, but the result is very satisfying; fruit-forward, dry, with aromas and flavors of cherry, strawberry, and mineral. Serve as an aperitif or with the lighter fare of Summer.


LOUIS LA TOUR POUILLY FUISSE MACON REGION, FRANCE May be considered as a White Burgundy (100% Chardonnay); fermented and aged in stainless steel vats to ensure freshness of flavors; medium-bodied, with aromas and flavors of peach, citrus, and mango; elegant, with a long, smooth finish; you can be sure of the quality of a wine if it comes from the Macon Region.
