World Vineyard Collection
RED
AUSTRALIAN SHIRAZ $73.95
Australia's route to fame on the world wine stage,
Shiraz form Down Under offers lush berry aromas that beg
for a hearty whiff. A wine of ripe fullness, its
concentrated blackberry fruits and fragrant spiciness
are a delight on the tongue. It has the uncanny quality
of allowing early consumption despite its complexity and
"bigness". Robust and lively, Australian Shiraz is a
savory treat.
CALIFORNIA TRINITY RED $71.95
An ideal blending of three of California's most popular
grape varieties - Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon,
and Merlot, coming together to make a perfectly
balanced, well-structured dry red wine. Notes of black
cherry and coffee complement the smokey, herbal flavors,
and hints of vanilla that round out this medium bodied
wine, making it highly enjoyable for any occasion. Serve
with a roast dinner or barbecued steak.
CALIFORNIA ZINFANDEL SHIRAZ $74.95
A deep flavorful red wine with notes of raspberry, black
cherries, figs, dark chocolate and a jamminess that
finishes with a peppery spice.
CHILEAN MALBEC $71.95
The hot dry climate allows the grapes to reach excellent
ripeness, and lush fruity characters, making an intense,
black wine. A thick-skinned grape full of color, tannin
and flavor, Malbec makes wines of great power and
character, with blackberry, plums, tar, red pepper,
sweet cherry, spice, licorice and deep bittersweet
notes, almost like unsweetened chocolate, or espresso.
CHILEAN MERLOT $69.95
Originating from the world famous Maipo Valley wine
region in Chile hails this great addition to our
Passport Series. This reputable Merlot is a soft and
supple variation with powerful fruit and spicy flavors.
Renowned for its ripe cherry character, the Merlot is a
perfect partner for red meats, lamb, and hearty stews. A
must-have on those crisp autumn evenings.
FRENCH CABERNET SAUVIGNON $71.95
All the classic associations with this well-known grape
variety used in France's brilliant red wine blends are
here in this Cabernet brought in directly from France:
rich, intense aromas, deep berry fruits, healthy
tannins, and a smooth, lingering finish. With the proper
tannin astringency and premium French oak evident
throughout, this is an elegant wine offering body and
complexity when aged.
ITALIAN SANGIOVESE $73.95
The lively fruit and good acidity make it one of the
most food-friendly of all reds, pairing well with pasta,
Veal Parmigiana, intensely flavored cheeses, and fruits
like cherries, figs, plums, and raspberries.
WHITE
AUSTRALIAN CHARDONNAY $69.95
Supple and slightly buttery, this wine lingers on the
palate with layers of toast and spice. Extremely
versatile with foods, this is the 'red wine' of white
wines, combining beautifully with grilled pork, chicken,
fish, salads and cream-based pasta sauces.
AUSTRALIAN RIVERLAND RESERVE $67.95
A stunningly unique blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Colombard
and Muscat varieties sourced from Australia's Riverland
region on the Murray River. The hot climate produces a
wine offering a lively combination of rich ripe fruits,
complementary acidity, and a full body, making this
delicious white wine a 'must-try'.
CALIFORNIA TRINITY WHITE $70.95
A unique blend of Colombard, Sauv Blanc and Semillon,
combining lemon and grapefruit aromas with rounded
fruit, redolent of melons and fresh figs to round out
this crisp refreshing medium-bodied white.
FRENCH SAUVIGNON BLANC $66.95
Steely, grassy, herbaceous - the classic traits of
palate-cleansing Sauvignon Blanc are here in this
version sourced directly from the French countryside.
Crisp and dry, this refreshing wine is a fabulous match
with food, as its full, fresh flavors and wonderfully
balanced acidity make it essential with chicken, fish
and grilled vegetables.
GERMAN MÜLLER-THURGAU $70.95
Delicious flavors apricot, green apple and peach aromas
of Riesling, and the early ripening qualities of
Silvaner. A great sipping wine, it's a perfect choice
for potato chips (There's nothing like a crisp glass of
Müller-Thurgau and some crunchy chips!) but mostly it's
a very satisfying wine to quench a thirst in good
company.
ITALIAN PINOT GRIGIO $69.95
The Italians have their own way with the Pinot Gris
grape variety, and in the process they create a special
magic with it that's unmatched elsewhere in the wine
world. Though dry in character and with a pleasant zip
of acidity, this Pinot Grigio shows off a pleasant
floral fragrance and tremendous fruit flavors, making it
the perfect picnic accompaniment.
ITALIAN TREBBIANO $69.95
This light, almost pale in color, crispy white wine
offers citrusy notes and a clean, fruit with almond-like
finish. Excellent with appetizers such as shrimp
cocktail or lightly flavored pastas.
