Montevina Barbera

Thursday, June 24, 2010

Very refreshing, down-to-earth, with rich, concentrated flavors.

This Barbera is the perfect companion wine. The brightjuicy fruit is enriched with vanilla and graham cracker toast from the oak. A nose bursting with cherries is spiced with vanilla bean and cocoa and finished withcaramel toffee creaminess.  It will run you about $12-$15.

This outstanding chardonnay will make your summer. 

Very aromatic with nice bright fruit. pear and lemon and a bit of minerality on the finish.  It will run you about $25-$30. 

This is a tremendous wine with an excellent price point. 

Gorgeous and lovely bright cherry, blackcurrant and dark plum with toasted oak. Medium bodied with silky tannins and long, ripe fruit and berry aftertaste, with impressive balance of fruit and polished tannins.
