The Holiday Season

1st:  Lioco - http://www.liocowine.com/
     "Chardonnay" - 2010
          This is a great wine paired with chicken and I'm going to give you the description off the bottle because it's right on.
          Nose of fresh meyer lemon, lime leaf and river stones.  Flavor of lemon drop candies, green pair, and mineral.  Food pairings with green curry chicken, dungeoness crab, fish chowder.

2nd:  Alexis Bailly Vineyard - http://www.abvwines.com/
     "Ratafia" - 2009
          If you don't have one of these  in your rack for this time of year you are missing out!  This wine is a mixture of Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year all packed into triangular blue bottle.  I suggest it for sippping with a loved one, or small group of close friends.
          This is a red fortified sweet dessert wine infused with orange.  It is toasty, spicy, nutty, and brings out everything that reminds me of Christmas.

"It's Christmas time - soak up the holiday with loved ones."
- "The Winerers Crier"
