Vina Las Perdices Torrentes, - Argentina (suggested retail $12.99) This floral wine best known as being from Argentina is pale yellow in color with golden tones. It exhibits intense aromas of white flowers, roses, and jasmine, with gentle touches of citric fruits and white peach, and has a very good intensity and aromatic persistence. On the palate it has vibrant acidity and a silky, long finish. You will not be disappointed pairing it with shellfish, Asian dishes or pastas with more subtle sauces. It is a very refreshing summer wine.
Domaine de la Bastide Cotes du Rhone Blanc - France (suggested retail $11.99) This wine was brought to Michigan by request when Jack & Rick visited the 500 year old chateau in Visan, a small village in the heart of the Cotes du Rhone. Made with a blend of 70% Viognier and even amounts of Roussanne and Bourboulenc, this is amazingly aromatic - with mouth-watering peach, tropical fruit and delicate hints of white blossom. Lively, fresh and floral with beautiful precision and focus on the crisp finish. Try this wine with roasted chicken or a sausage off the grill.
Porta da Calada Vinho Tinto - Portugal (suggested retail $9.99) I had a difficult time finding good tasting notes on this wine that were in English, although I seemed to have little trouble finding what appeared to be favorable reviews of this wine in Portuguese. I had Google translate one of the pages: “"Shut the Door" Tinto in 2010. 14.5% vol. Regional Wine. Aragonez, Trincadeira and Syrah. Produced and bottled on the estate by BCH SA - Herdade da Shut up, little church.” Regardless of the questionable translation, you will find this wine to be a great match for red meat or a burger off the grill.
Vendrame Vignis del Doge Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso - Italy (suggested retail $12.99) Dry red wine made of 100% Refosco. Deep intense ruby color with violet reflections. Elegant aroma, reminiscent of red berry and woodland fruits. Harmonious velvet, concentrated and long lasting flavor. While aging it continues to develop new and interesting nuances. Accompanies well with most dishes featuring meat, especially red meats, roasts wild game and well matured cheeses.
Domaine de la Bastide Cotes du Rhone Rouge - France (suggested retail $11.99) Fruity red wine; 40% Shiraz, 40% Grenache, 10% Carignan, 10% Mourvedre. The grapes for this wine are hand-picked out of organic vineyards. It is fermented in neutral tanks without any oak aging, resulting in a wine with lower tannins and more fruit on the palate. While completely dry, this wine features aromas of fresh cherries and strawberries. Soft, fresh, rich and well balanced on the taste. Try it with a steak or a roast with root vegetables.
Vina Las Perdices Syrah, - Argentina (suggested retail $12.99) This classic northern Rhone blend is predominately Syrah, with a splash of the white wine grape Viognier. In your glass you immediately notice complex aromas of cherry and blueberry which is followed up by the subtle fragrance of apricot and white peach. On the palate it is smooth, round, meaty and flavorful, with very pleasant ripe tannin, and a long and refined finish. This wine shows the characteristics typical of its two grape varieties, co-fermented to achieve synergy and give the wine complexity. Ideal match for game dishes, slow-cooked meat dishes and every type of mushroom.
