TELLER WINES

JUNE TELLER 12

Whites

Ca’ Momi (Bianco), Napa Valley, California  

Hand crafted with bold flavors of the California sunshine, subtle notes of defiance, and a hint of tradition. The finish is seductive and full of fiery Italian passion.

Cielo (Pinot Grigio), Delle Venezie, Italy

This light and delicate wine presents a nose of green apple and a fresh palate with notes of apricot, citrus fruit and a hint of spice. The finish is crisp and refined.

Willm (Gewürtztraminer), Alsace, France     

This reserve is pink with white fruit and juice. Intense bouquet and flavors of exotic passionfruit, pineapple, and lychee, flowers and cinnamon spice!

Robertson (Chardonnay), South Africa  

7^th generation winemakers farm the family vineyards to produce this smooth Chardonnay. Concentrated lemon-lime fruit flavors harmonize with toasty French oak.

Loimer (Zweigelt, Pinot Noir), Austria

Beautiful Rosé, salmon color with delightfully fresh aromas of strawberry . . . followed by flavors of berries, ending crisp and refreshing. Dry and perfect sipper all year round.

White Knight (Viognier), Clarksburg, California    

A nose of white peach and honeysuckle around a core of pear and melon. Orange blossom and firm yellow peach on the mid-palate. Finish is lush, clean and smooth.

Reds

Honoro Vera (Monastrell), Spain  

Organic, derived from old bush vine Monastrell, this wine is silky, warm and spicy. Ripe and generous but with heaps of backbone too.

Guenoc (Merlot), Napa, California   

Pleasant aromas of red raspberry, Bing cherry and dried herbs fill the nose. Lingering flavors of chocolate and cassis lead to a dry, yet fruit filled finish.

Jaume (Cotes Du Rhone), France  

Aromatic and racy with powerful pure fruit. Bursting with ripe, red fruit. Hints of spice, cocoa and licorice. Supple and rich, a splendid example of a CDR (Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre).

Illusion (Zinfandel, Merlot, Petite Sirah, Cab), Lodi, California     

Old vine Zinfandel grapes are hand harvested by the 5^th generation Peirano family’s estate founded in 1895. Plush presentation of dark fruit and supple tannins. From the first sip, you are filled with illusions of what to expect from this layered wine.

Robertson (Pinotage), South Africa      

Smoky and wonderful. Produced in the early style with flavors of ripe strawberries and cherry. This wine spent 5 months in French oak. A perfect accompaniment to bacon cheeseburger or grilled Portobello mushrooms.

Protocolo (Tempranillo), Spain

It’s deep, ripe and minty on the nose, with berry power foretelling a pure, lush palate that’s packed with berry flavors and light herbal shadings. Impressive finish.
