May Specials

White Wine of the Month

Argiolas Costamolino 2004
Regularly $13.99 ~ Sale $11.99
Pinot Grigio fans, you've GOT to try this Vermentiano! "90 points...(perhaps the finest Vermentino I have ever tasted) exhibits ripe, exotic fruit (banana, pear, mango and lemons) and salty sea breeze-like notes. With a delicious texture as well as a dry, heady finish, it will provide plenty of pleasure," The Wine Advocate.

New at the Jug

Gramona Gessami 2004
Regularly $14.99 ~ Sale $12.99
"90 Points...A terrific buy...60% Muscat de Alexandria, 30% Sauvignon Blanc, and 10% Muscat de Fontignac that comes across like Spain's version of a white Hermitage, although it is lighter-bodied. Exotic waxy notes intermixed with notions of rose water, acacia flowers and minerals jump from the glass of this medium bodied white. It possesses a fruity, dry, intense, pure, spicy personality," The Wine Advocate.
