Winter Wine-derlands

Warm up this winter with these sumptuous red wines!

Oak Ridge Moss Roxx Zinfandel - Zin lovers rejoice!  This Double-Gold Medal winner from Lodi showcases delicious layers of mocha, cassis, dried cherry and sage.  Perfect for winter get-togethers or curling up beside the fire.

Robinson Family Stags Leap Cabernet - This luscious, elegant Cabernet is a perfect match for prime rib or tenderloin, and delivers show-stopping layers of dark fruit, chocolate and creamy oak.

Cougar Crest Syrah - Wine Spectator awarded this rich, full-bodied red with 92 points!  Pull the cork to unveil aromas of plum and coriander.  Pair this beauty with ground beef dishes and hearty stews.

Pakravan Papi “Prunicce” - One of Italy’s finest exports, this Super Tuscan wine is a blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.  The result is a powerful wine with delicate fruit aromas and spicy plum flavors.  An excellent match with cured meats, pork chops & crostini.

Thorn-Clarke Shotfire Ridge Shiraz - All the flavors of winter are here: plum, cinnamon, mocha and spice.  Nobody delivers Shiraz like the Aussies and this 90-point full-bodied red from Barossa Valley will keep you warm all winter long!

Barista Pinotage - South Africa’s signature grape varietal, Pinotage, offers wine lovers a whole new tasting experience that fuses flavors of cherries, plum, chocolate and coffee.
