A Whole Lotta Wine

1st: Jeio Desiderio -  http://www.jeio.it/ - Italy
     Prosecco Brut -Unknown Year
          This Prosecco Brut is light and sparkly.  It has a nose of lemon and lime with a palate of light citrus.  Crisp and dry you'll enjoy this one for that celebration you have coming up.

2nd:  Three Lakes Winery - http://www.fruitwine.com/ - Wisconsin
     Marion Blackberry - Unknown Year
         This semi-sweet fruit wine has a delicate but noteable palate.  There is a smoky undertone to the nose.  This wine will be great with vanilla ice cream or cheese cake.

3rd:  Gazela - http://www.gazela.eu/ - Portugal
     Gazela - Unknown Year
          Gazela is a sparkling white and very light.   Will go well with salads or light fish.

4th:  Mason Cellars - http://www.masoncellars.com/ - California
     Pomelo Sauvignon Blanc- 2008
          A light white wine with an intense grapefruit nose.  Hiding in the back is a light hint of rhubarb, with passion fruit, guava, and lime peel on the front end.

5th:  Barefoot - http://www.barefootwine.com/ - California
     Muscato - Unknown Year
          Light raisin notes run through this wine with hints of peach and apricot and citrus on the palate.

6th:  ConCannon -  http://www.concannonvineyard.com/ - California
     Crimson & Cloves - 2009
          This wine has aromas of nutmeg, mocha and coconut and flavors of blackberry, ripe cherry and plum on the palate. This is a wonderful mid-dry table red that pairs great with Gary's habrenero cherry fudge.

7th:  Blackstone - http://www.blackstonewinery.com/ - California
     Cabernet - Sauvignon - 2009
          This wine has a nose of blackberry, plum, and spice with hints of oak.  Try pairing with venison.

"Great wine is created to be found by those who will enjoy it."
