4461 Heitz Cellars, Napa Valley 2012 48 Koniaros Koniaros (Syrah) is a very rare Greek grape variety that was only recently revived. Grown near Serres, Macedonia, in the far north of Greece, close to the Bulgarian border. Currently Domaine Nerantzi is the only producer of a varietal Koniaros. Koniaros is an ancient variety that had been left behind due to low yields. Nerantzi Mitropoulos came across vines in 1998. He had them DNA tested, registered Koniaros with the authorities, preserved and cultivates it. With large, thick skinned berries. Koniaros is a late ripening variety; harvest typically takes place in the last week of September. On the nose Blackberries, cocoa, coffee, spicy. Medium plus bodied, firm tannins with matching acidity, extracted fruit; smooth and elegant. Next to Assyrtiko the best wine from Greece that we have had the opportunity to taste. The 2008 Domaine Nerantzi “Koniaros” has an elegant dark red color, the nose, it is characterized by complex aromas of red fruits with hints of mulberries, plums, flowers, balsamic notes and traces of cocoa. A balanced wine with firm tannins and a long finish. Prepare to be delighted with the lighter side of red! Everything about Heitz 2012 Grignolino is fresh, vibrant and young. Like a cross between Beaujolais and Lambrusco without the effervescence. Beginning with its luminous scarlet hue and the intensity of its floral bouquet. Packed with bright fruit flavors and a zing of lemon peel, it is easy to see why this wine is often called “the little strawberry” in its native Piedmont, Italy. A charming hint of spice adds excitement on the finish.Heitz Grignolino is an easy-sipping wine, and it is the perfect one to reach for with Chef Oliva’s Calamari. Other Rhône Blends 4463 Maison Bleue “Jaja” Yakima Valley, Washington State 2011 66 A rich and seductive nose of white peppercorns, dark plum, tar, violets and blackberries.. Pairs well with any of Chef Oliva’s beef, lamb, wild game, and cheese plate. 43% Syrah, 35% Mourvèdre and 22% Grenache. 4459 Orin Swift “Abstract”, California 2012 75 A blend of Napa, Sonoma, and Mendocino. Grenache, Petite Sirah and Syrah. California Nebbiolo 3915 Clendenen Family Vnyds “Bricco Buon Natale” St Maria Valley ‘05 75 Greece 3918 Domaine Nerantzi “Koniaros” Evanthia Poulou, Greece 2008 145 Rhône Prestige in the north, value in the south: that’s the quick version of the Rhône story. Southern village appellations produce a dizzying stylistic range of delicious wines, while the prices for northern “trophy” bottles can be dizzyingly high. If you like smoky, leathery, earthy, macho red wines, however, the wines of the northern Rhône are well worth it. Prestigious northern Rhône appellations include Condrieu, Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, and St.-Joseph. In the southern Rhône, look to the village appellations of Côtes du Rhône, Gigondas, Rasteau, and Vacqueyras. Northern Rhône Reds 4360 Delas “Chante-Perdrix”, Cornas 2007 66 4401 Dom. du Tunnel, Cornas 2006 105 4432 Domaine Jamet, Rhodaniennes, Vins de Pays des Collines 2011 52 4366 Domaine Les Bruyères “David Reynaud” Crozes-Hermitage 2011 68 4357 Tardieu-Laurent, Hermitage 2002 125
Being a little brother of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and, arguably, Gigondas, the wine is moderately prestigious and can yield pleasing results when treated correctly. Vacqueyras is, like Gigondas, known for its power rather than its elegance. The backbone of the wine is Grenache, however producers of Vacqueyras use more Syrah than is used in Gigondas which can make the style seem cooler. 4359 Beaucastel, Chateâuneuf-du-Pape 1987 325 4373 Beaucastel, Chateâuneuf-du-Pape 2009 225 4398 Domaine de Beaurenard, “Boisrenard” Chateâuneuf-du-Pape 2010 145 4397 Domaine de Beaurenard, “Boisrenard” Chateâuneuf-du-Pape 2011 150 4376 Domaine du Peagu, “Cuvee Reservee” Chateâuneuf-du-Pape 2011 150 4328 Lucien Barrot et Fils, Chateâuneuf-du-Pape 2010 90 4426 la Roubine, Vacqueyras 2010 62 4430 Domaine du Cayron, Gigondas 2010 63 4413 Domaine Andre Brunel, “Cuvée SAbrine” CD Rhône Villages 2010 45 4433 Domaine La Meynarde, “Plan de Dieu” Côtes du Rhône Villages ‘10 45 4344 Jean-David, “Cuvée Beau Nez” Seguret, CD Rhône Villages 2011 52
Domaine Jean-David is a small estate located in Seguret in the Côtes-du-Rhône Villages appellation. They are strong believers in organic viticulture and have been certified since 1987. Even before they were officially certified, there has never been chemical additives used in their vineyards. This 17 hectare estate is run by the amicable couple, Jean and Martine David. The work in the vineyards is all done by hand, with respect for the environment as well as the natural rhythm of the seasons. The estate also has a good number of old vine parcels spread throughout the village of Seguret, some of which are classified in Côtes-du-Rhône and some in Côtes-du-Rhône Villages. The 2011 “Beau Nez” (Beautiful Nose) Has a very nice deep color, black ink. Fine and elegant nose, with aromas of liquorice, black fruit, followed by very complex spicy pepper notes, that matches Chef Oliva’s Rack of Lamb and Duck Ragu. Provence 4406 Chateau Pibarnon, Bandol 2001 120 Languedoc-Roussillon 4449 Hecht & Bannier, Côtes Du Roussilon 2010 60 4297 M. Chapoutier, Domaine de Bila-Haut “Occultum Lapidiem” 2010 60
4429 Frederic Lornet “Trousseau” Arbois 2010 57 Costieres De Nimes 4368 Chateau D'or Et De Gueules Costieres “La Bolida” De Nimes 2008 70 Petite Sirah 3904 Priest Ranch Estates, Napa Valley 2009 85 3897 Ridge “Lytton Estate”, Sonoma County, Dry Creek Valley 2011 66 3905 Turley “Hayne Vineyard”, Napa Valley 2008 165 Zinfandel Turley Quite possibly the world’s finest zinfandel producer, Turley’s wines are a Durif (Petite Sirah) Durif is a variety of red wine grape primarily grown in California, Australia, France, and Israel. It is the main grape known in the U.S. and Israel as Petite Sirah, with over 90% of the California plantings labeled "Petite Sirah" it produces tannic wines with a spicy, plummy flavor. The grape originated as a cross of Syrah pollen germinating a Peloursin plant. On some occasions, Peloursin and Syrah vines may be called Petite Sirah, usually because the varieties are extremely difficult to distinguish in old age. The grape is named after François Durif, a botanist at the University of Montpellier. Zinfandel fan’s dream. Typical flamboyant, briary fruit and spices. 3852 Turley “Dragon Vineyard”, Howell Mountain, Napa Valley 2011 135 3866 Turley “Duarte Vineyard”, Contra Costa County 2009 140 3865 Turley “Dusi Vineyard”, Paso Robles 2009 135 3853 Turley “Estate”, Napa Valley 2011 115 3855 Turley “Hayne Vineyard”, Napa Valley 2010 200 3848 Turley “Hayne Vineyard”, Napa Valley 2011 225 3860 Turley “Juvenile”, 2011 70 3851 Turley “Juvenile”, 2012 70 3857 Turley “Moore Earthquake Vineyard”, Napa Valley 2008 140 3862 Turley “Old Vines”, California 2009 90 3846 Turley “Old Vines”, California 2011 80 3850 Turley “Pesenti”, Paso Robles 2009 115
The origins of California’s favorite grape, Zinfandel remained a mystery for over a century until famed winemaker Mike Grgich from Napa Valley recognized a resemblance from a grape he used to drink in his home country of Croatia before emigrating to pursue his American Dream. The UC Davis institute had already linked it to Primitivo from Puglia, Italy however, the roots of this vine were still unsure. Professor Carole Meredith then initiated a research project, dubbed the ‘Zinquest’ based on Grgich’s hypothesis to see if Zinfandel and Primitivo were indeed an equivalent to Plavac Mali, Dalmatia’s premier red variety. Meredith’s team ventured into Dalmatia’s vineyards leading them to the discovery of nine old vines in the town of Kaštela near Split of an almost extinct Croatian variety named Crljenak Kaštelanski (or Tribidrag), a cousin of Plavac Mali. In December 2001, it was announced that Zinfandel and Primitivo were one of the same with original roots from Dalmatia from the Crljenak Kaštelanski variety. Tribidrag is the oldest name for this variety and it has been identified that the grape originates from Omiš, just 25km south of Split. Although the cousin, Plavac Mali is the most widely grown in the region, Crljenak Kaštelanski is now coming back into the vineyards after the Zinquest brought attention to this popular grape. Crljenak Kaštelanski wines are characterized as generally full-bodied wines with cooked berry and spice aromas with high acidity and alcohol levels; a warm hug from the coast. The DNA profiles are a perfect match. Tribidrag is documented to have been grown in Croatia for at least 500 years. roduced from 100% Nebbiolo (Chiavennasca) grapes picked by hand in the zones of Valtellina and Valtellina Superiore. The grapes, left to dry for 3 months, are vinified on their skins with long maceration. After a short stay in steel, the new wine ages partly in 32- and 57 hectolitre French casks for about 22 months.
3863 Turley “Tofanelli Vineyard”, Napa Valley 2008 220 3847 Turley “Ueberroth”, Paso Robles 2011 160
3859 Joseph Swan Vineyards “Mancini Ranch”, R River Valley 2008 62 More red fruited (think cherries rather than berries) with the usual bright acidity and long finish. A sophisticated zinfandel rather than a jam-in-a-jar brute. Plenty of flavor, plenty of structure, plenty of pleasure. 3864 Martinelli “Jackass Vineyard”, Russian River Valley 2010 185 68 3858 Williams Selyem “Forchini Vineyard”, RRV 2006 210
4074 Amarone, Secondo Marco, “Della Valpolicella Classico” 2007 105 4078 Cannonau, Cantine di Dolianova “Blasio Riserva”, Sardinia 2007 45 4142 Carignan, Cab, Merlot, Agricola Punica “Barrua”, Sardinia 2007 120 Barrua is deep crimson red in color with violet highlights and aromas of crushed fresh blackberries and a suave, silky palate supported by sweet, refined tannins and a fine note of acidity. A textbook expression of the Carignano grape. 4099 Teroldego, Foradori “Granato”, Trentino 2005 140 Lombardy 4049 Chiavennasca, Nino Negri, 5 Stelle, Sfursat di Valtellina, 2007 138 The 2007 Sfursat 5 Stelle made from Chiavennasca (100% Nebbiolo), is a gorgeous wine laced with dark red fruit, licorice, new leather and French oak. All of the elements meld together with notable grace in this rich, expansive 5 Stelle. The fragrant, silky fruit flows through to an enveloping, generous finish. Armando Parusso This well respected producer offers a unique perspective into the grand Nebbiolo grape. Located right at the border between the Castiglion Falletto and Monforte d’Alba appellation of Barolo, the brother and sister team, Marco and Tiziana Parusso, are growing 100% of their own grapes in 18 different parcels between the two subappellations. A young team of very talented vineyard workers carefully educated by Marco harvest superb lots of grapes every year. A winemaking process was defined in this winery that is already leading example for many young vintners around the world. With an approach of great enthusiasm and analytical precison, conceiving their barolos with greater elegance and more transparent vineyard characteristics every year. A newly finished winery in the year 2000 allowed Marco to finally age his wines under the conditions he considers optimal, elevating his wines to new levels of complexity. Making it one of the best Barolo’s we have tasted at Delmonico’s roduced from 100% Nebbiolo (Chiavennasca) grapes picked by hand in the zones of Valtellina and Valtellina Superiore. The grapes, left to dry for 3 months, are vinified on their skins with long maceration. After a short stay in steel, the new wine ages partly in 32- and 57 hectolitre French casks for about 22 months.

international varieties, producing wines that rival the finest Bordeaux. 4205 Antinori “Guado al Taso”, Tuscany 2007 210 4202 Antinori “Guado al Taso”, Tuscany 2008 200 4005 Antinori “Tignanello”, Tuscany 2008 225 4002 Antinori “Solaia”, Tuscany 2006 550 4199 Campo Al Mare, Bolgheri, Tuscany 2011 48 4203 Castello Di Rampolla, San Marco 2004 185 4210 Goretti Motefalco, Tuscany 2010 55 4209 Tenuta dell’ Ornellaia “Ornellaia”, Tuscany 2009 435 4204 Tenuta San Guido “Le Difese” Tuscany 2011 55 4207 Tenuta San Guido “Sassicaia”, Tuscany 2004 450 4102 Tolaini, Tenuta San Giovanni, “Valdisanti”, Tuscany 2009 61 Tempranillo This grape is the backbone of wines made in the well-known Spanish regions Rioja and Ribera del Duero, but is also grown as far afield as Mexico and Australia. As a flavor profile, red fruits like strawberries and cherries can predominate - but with a rustic edge. Many wines made from Tempranillo will spend a few years in barrel and bottle before reaching the consumer. Many Tempranillo-based wines see a few years of oak - add that to a few years of bottle and the wine can give a subtle - and occasionaly not-so-subtle - leathery mouthfeel. The combination of the tart fruit and tannins make this wine very food friendly. The grapes for this blend come from the estate’s two vineyards, Montebello and San Giovanni, which are only 4 kms apart. The grapes are manually harvested and then undergo a strict selection process. Valdisanti is a full bodied blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese and Cabernet Franc. Sicily 4101 Frappato, Occhipinti “Tami”, Sicily 2011 45 4208 Nerello Mascalese, Patria Etna Rosso “Reserva” Mt.

Considered to be the finest of the grapes that are used to create the substantial and long-lived fortified wines known as Port. Touriga Nacional has a thick skin and small clusters of berries which help to contribute to the colorful and tannic wine it creates. Spanish Reds Cont’d 4507 Tempranillo, Campo Eliseo “Campo Alegre”, Toro 2010 60 Alicante The picturesque city of Alicante in the Valencia region of Spain has a vibrant tourism industry - which makes it all the more surprising that its wines are so little known outside of Spain. The region, lying on the southeastern border, produces a great variety of wines - from light and fruity whites to oak-aged Cabernet. It can also claim some of the best Moscatels in the country, as well as a unique rancio wine made from sun-dried Monastrell grapes called Fondillon. 4500 Tempranillo, (CVNE) “Imperial Gran Reserva”, Rioja 2005 125 A blend of 85% tempranillo, 10% graciano and 5% mazuelo that was aged in French and American oak for 24 months): Deep red. Heady aromas of cherry, redcurrant, vanilla and rose oil, with a smoky nuance and a hint of cured tobacco. Sappy, penetrating, appealingly sweet red fruit flavors put on weight with air while maintaining vivacity. This impressively balanced and focused gran reserva finishes with silky tannins and excellent cut and persistence. These wines are only produced in great vintages. The 2004 Vintage is Wine Spectator Wine of the Year for 2013. 4506 Tempranillo, Marques de Murrieta “Reserva” 2007 62 4514 Tempranillo, La Rioja Alta Viña Ardanza “Reserva” 2004 65 4510 Tempranillo, Liberalia “Tres” Castilla y Leon, Toro, 2001 120 4502 Tempranillo, Remirez de Ganuza “Reserva” 2006 180 4508 Tempranillo, Vega Sicilia “Unico”, Ribera Del Duero 1993 550 Bodegas del Fin del Mundo One of the southernmost wineries on the planet. Literally “The End of the World” Bodega del Fin del Mundo is located in the Argentine Patagonia, in San Patricio del Chañar, Neuquén, a place that was long dominated by the harsh Patagonian desert and today has been turned into an oasis of life, where the vineyards offer grapes of great quality, ideal for making top of the line wines. The inception of the project should be traced back in 1996, when moved by the ideal climate for growing vines and a team of committed highly qualified professionals, who faced the challenge to convert 3,000 hectares of Patagonian steppe into an oasis. The first vines were planted in 1999. Since then, 2,000 hectares of vineyards have been planted and 870 hectares of this area form part of the project known today as Bodega Del Fin del Mundo. It is worth noting that all the wineries located in San Patricio del Chañar were born in the remaining hectares after this project. This new viticultural region is located in the north of Patagonia, 60 km away from the city of Neuquén. Suitability of the soil and the climate together with the availability of water make a difference as about the quality of grapes and the wines obtained out of these grapes. The large temperature range (more than 20º Celsius), scarce precipitation (180 mm a year) and low humidity are determining factors for obtaining quality grapes. This type of climate also makes the grapes ripen slowly and harmoniously, thus enabling an optimal relationship between sugar and acidity, excellent colors and a good number of aromatic substances. These conditions are given by cold winters, dry and hot summers during the day and cool summers at night, as well as light, cool and dry falls. All these factors are ideal to make grapes express their best quality at the moment they are harvested. Bodega Del Fin del Mundo was opened in April 12, 2003 setting a landmark in the history of Argentine viticulture and has changed the Argentine production map forever. .
A beautifully rich and juicy wine from Alicante, Spain. This wine is one of Bruno Prats's projects, who once owned the iconic Bordeaux Château Cos d'Estournel. A combination of Monastrell, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon is in evidence with luscious flavors of dark cherry and brown spices. Pair this wine with roast beef or skirt steak. 4513 Syrah/Mouverdre/Bobal Finca Sandoval, Manchuela 2007 75 Directory: uploads uploads -> 587 Return function, r i(X) r i(0) r i(1) r i(2) r i(3) 1 0 2 4 6 Thermal Station, I 2 0 1 5 6 3 0 3 5 6 10 uploads -> Department of science and humanities department of mathematics part-a questions and answers uploads -> The Case Against the nypd’s Quota-Driven ‘Broken Windows’ Policing What Is It? uploads -> For want of a nail uploads -> Ownership Models There are two different types of ownership models uploads -> Police Militarization uploads -> City of rising star regular meting thursday, july 14, 2016 uploads -> Township of winfield uploads -> Stop Militarizing Law Enforcement Act of 2014 uploads -> The Black Panther Party’s Ten-Point Program What We Want Now!
