WINE LIST 2006-2007 Winter Wine List
House Selections: Fred Cline, of Cline Cellars, created a tasty red blend that was just right to enter into the market of reasonably priced and fun table wines. The Red Truck wines are for people looking for classic, big-hearted, bright, and juicy wines that are a mouthful of fun. It is these funky wines we have chosen for our house selections.
Pink Truck 2005 - by the glass: $5.50, Bottle $24 The wine revs up with bright berry and citrus aromas, peels out with crisp, juicy raspberry and orange flavors for a bright, lush finish. This pink wine is a blend of White Zinfandel, Grenache, and Mourvedre.
Red Truck Cabernet Sauvignon 2004 - by the glass $6.00 Bottle $28 Nice fruit and grip for a Cabernet in this price range. Black cherry fruit pairs well with moderate tannins.
White Truck Chardonnay 2005 - by the glass $6.00, Bottle $24 A simple, clean and straightforward style for this un-caked version of Santa Barbera fruit. Delicate citrus, pear and apple fruits are predominant here.
Our Reds: Los Cardos Malbec 2004 Bottle $32 This wine of great varietal character stands out for its elegance and complex aromatic expression, reflecting the typical characteristics of an Argentine Malbec wine. On the nose it opens with notes of red berries and plum, intermixed with agreeable notes of spice, black pepper, mint and graphite. On the palate the wine is soft and fresh, full-bodied and very delightful, which reflects the slow maturity of the grapes and a careful management of the winemaking process. . A to Z Wineworks Pinot Noir 2005 Bottle $58 The Wine Spectator calls this wine - "Fine in texture, with firm tannins around a pretty core of cherry, currant and spice flavors, persisting nicely and with some intensity."
Alexander Valley Vineyards Cabernet 2004 Bottle $56 Medium to full-bodied, this Cabernet displays abundant cherry and currant fruit on the palate and a velvety mouth feel. Supple and polished throughout, it finishes with firm tannins. As with previous vintages, this is an extremely drinkable Cabernet Sauvignon.
Rosenblum Cellars Zinfandel "Vintners Cuvee" NV Bottle $38 The lovely, bright jammy cherry fruit of the old vine Contra Costa Zinfandel blended with the touch of Paso Robles creates a wine that has a nice acid backbone yet is soft on the palate.
Pedroncelli Cabernet Sauvignon "Three Vineyards" Bottle $52 Rich, violet red color. Layers of blackberry and cherry laced with a complementary hint of green pepper-like spiciness. The mouth lends itself to a bright acidity, in just the right amount to showcase the fruit. Lingering spice and firm tannins round out the finish.
Our Whites Hawk Crest Chardonnay 2005 Bottle $35 Excellent length, pleasant texture, and a delightful array of flavor notes. In the nose, savor aromas of pineapple, vanilla, and caramel-covered apple. In the mouth, there's a hint of soft fruit - melon and peach - followed by an array of flavors - ginger, jasmine, butterscotch.
Cono Sur Riesling 2006 Bottle $32 Apple and flower notes against a mineral background, this Riesling is sweet, refreshing and balanced.
Santa di Terrossa Pinot Grigio 2005 Bottle $30 A bright fruit nose of pear and citrus is followed by lovely mid-palate fruit and richness; beautifully balanced it finishes clean and with just the right amount of acidity to bring all the components together.
This is where we have started; there will be more to come as we search our the best selections for our menu.
