<strong>International</strong> Rosé<br />
“Savvy sippers in Europe have long known the power of pink. Rosé wines are not only refreshing, but they pair with a great<br />
range of food from salads and seafood to steak. But in this country, they’ve often been the unfashionable clunky shoes at a<br />
party full of sexy high heels. However, that’s starting to shift as rosé wines are experiencing a renaissance of sorts in the<br />
New World. More rosé is being imported into the United States than ever before, and California winemakers are also producing<br />
more of it. <strong>Wine</strong> drinkers are realizing the new breed of dry rosés is not the sweet stuff of years past.” Drinks<br />

majestically refined.” <strong>Wine</strong> Spectator<br />
“One of Italy’s greatest wines had one of its biggest<br />

2007 Chateau Rollat Ardenvoir Rose Columbia Valley_________________ 14.99<br />
“As one might expect, this is Washington rosé with a French touch, courtesy of<br />
consulting winemaker Christian LeSommer. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon,<br />
Merlot and Cab Franc, given a four-hour soak and then fermented in neutral oak,<br />
it is exceptional in every way. Silky and flavorful with a mix of peach and strawberry,<br />
vanilla cookie and amazing length.” <strong>Wine</strong> Enthusiast, rated 90/100<br />
2007 Kapcsandy State Lane Rosé Napa Valley_ ____________________ 24.99<br />
“An atypically deep colored, full-bodied, dry rosé with loads of personality… it is<br />
bursting with character.” Robert Parker<br />
Robert Parker wrote that Kapscandy’s 2006 was “the finest rosé I’ve tasted in years.”<br />
While the 2006 just sold out, the new 2007 is even better! Very limited, as only a<br />
few hundred cases are made.<br />
2008 Niebaum Coppola Sofia Pinot Noir Rosé Carneros________________ 17.99<br />
<strong>The</strong> 2008 Rosé exudes aromas of fresh strawberries and rose petals. Bright and<br />
lively, this wine offers generous flavours of juicy black cherry, raspberry and kiwi<br />
fruit while being dry and refreshing on the palate.<br />
2008 Sola Rosa Rosé Russian River__________________ 16.99<br />
This year, the classic SoloRosa blend is made principally from Syrah<br />
and Pinot Noir grapes sourced exclusively from the Russian River<br />
Valley. <strong>The</strong> wine offers an intriguingly spicy hint of fruit but<br />
remains dry in the signature SoloRosa style.<br />
From France<br />
2009 Chateau de Ségriès Tavel Rosé__________________________ 15.99<br />
<strong>The</strong> 2008 Tavel Rose received 90 pts from Robert Parker - “A brilliant, big-boned,<br />
brawny, dry rose with plenty of flavor.”<br />
2008 Château D’Esclans Whispering Angel_ ______________________ 18.99<br />
Two Thumbs up. Pleasant, with flavors and aromas of raspberries and trawberries.<br />
It also offered some interesting notes of spiced almonds, but not a crisp and/or<br />
refined as the other three.<br />
2007 Château D’Esclans Esclans_ ____________________________ 24.99<br />
Two Thumbs up. Light, bright and pleasant, it had charming aromas and flavors<br />
of minerals, flowers and red berries. Quite refreshing and the most straight forward<br />
of the four.<br />
Our Favorites<br />
2009 Tensley Lea Tierra Alta Syrah Rosé<br />
Jennifer (Joey’s wife) makes her rosé from a single vineyard and a single clone, in this case the Tablas 99 clone from Tierra Alta<br />
vineyard. Jennifer and her six-year-old son Oliver crushed the grape for this Rosé with their feet (their very clean feet). Half of the<br />
fruit remained on the skins for only three hours before being pressed to neutral French oak barrels. <strong>The</strong> other half stayed on the<br />
skins overnight before going into barrel. <strong>The</strong> resulting wine is rich in color with a silky, rounded mouthfeel and a crisp, refreshing<br />
finish. Look for notes of rose petals, strawberries, and guava complemented by hints of earth and minerality.<br />
This wine pairs beautifully with spicy Mexican or Asian dishes as well as the Cajun cuisine of<br />
Jennifer’s hometown, New Orleans - who dat! It should be enjoyed over the next two years.<br />
162 cases produced.<br />

2008 Domaine Lafond Tavel_ ______________________________ 16.99<br />
“Fair prices and exuberant fruit make it easy for Domaine Lafond’s wines to attract<br />
fans. Whether it be their exquisite Tavel rose, their delicious Cotes du Rhones, or<br />
their most ambitious wines, the Chateauneuf du Papes, all are noteworthy efforts.”<br />
<strong>Wine</strong> Advocate<br />
2009 Domaine de la Mordorée Côtes du Rhône_ ___________________ 14.99<br />
Pink, slightly orange color (mordorée color). Aromas of crystallized oranges and<br />
cherries, hints of aniseed. Very round palate, fresh and a long finish.<br />
2009 Domaine de la Mordorée Tavel_ _________________________ 22.99<br />
Steady pink, brilliant and limpid color. Very complex nose with flowers, red and<br />
white fruits aromas. Round, full bodied with a long lasting aniseed and fruity finish.<br />
2008 Domaine de la Mordoree Tavel_ _________________________ 19.99<br />
Selected by Robert Parker as “One of <strong>The</strong> World’s Great <strong>Wine</strong> Estates.” He also<br />
said, “Some of the finest rosés from southern France emerge from Mordoree.”<br />
Tavel has often been called the king of rosé.<br />
2008 Domaine Ott Bandol Rosé Les Domaniers_ ___________________ 21.99<br />
Within the past few years, Domaine Ott has skyrocketed in popularity among the<br />
hip European crowd, and this sophisticated rosé is now all the rage on the east<br />
coast as well. This unique Domaine Ott has a bouquet of aromatic fruits and<br />
spices, along with apricot and grapefruit. Delicate, vivid flavors of the grape dance<br />
across the palate, offering a refreshing counterpoint to a wide spectrum of fresh<br />
summer dishes.<br />
From South Africa<br />
2009 Mulderbosch Cabernet Sauvignon Rosé______________________ 11.99<br />
“This is almost criminally inexpensive for such an utterly charming wine that takes<br />
you right into a field of strawberries on a beautiful, clear day.” Wall Street Journal<br />
From South America<br />
Joey Tensley<br />
2009 Maipe Malbec Rosé_ ____________________ 12.99<br />
Dry in the style of European Rosés, this is as elegant and inspiring<br />
as a walk through the rose garden midsummer. You will<br />
definitely want a bottle or to of this ruby beauty for lunch or<br />
dinner.<br />
