WHITE
VARIETALS —
White wines are usually lighter in
body than reds, although there are
some that are aged in oak, such as Chardonnay, giving the wine more
flavor and richness. Due to the structure of whites, they tend to
pair better with such food as fish, chicken, and lighter dishes. Among
some of our selections are Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio,
Chenin Blanc, Riesling, and Verdicchio.

RED
VARIETALS
— Red wines, on the other
hand, pair nicely
with heavier, stronger tastes like beef, lamb and red sauces. The
winemaking process directly impacts the structure of reds, contributing
to the fuller more robust taste on your palette. When producing
red wines the winemaker uses skins and seeds as well as the juice
from the grape which results in a wider spectrum of flavor. The
aging process also adds to the full flavor of reds. We can recommend
a specific varietal for your menu. Among our selections are...Cabernet
Sauvignon, Merlot, Shiraz, Syrah, Pinot Noir, Zinfandel and more...
