JANUARY
- New Zealand Merlot $119.95 The Region: Gisborne boasts the world’s most easterly vineyards
and the first vines to see the sun each day. Well-drained alluvial loams
over sandy or volcanic sub soils help moderate fertility, and produce grapes
of intense character and aroma.
The Wine: Dry and medium bodied with a soft, supple fruity palate
of boysenberry, plums, redcurrant and ripe black cherries. A wonderful
spicy aroma, accentuated with light warm oak, leads to a long, elegant
finish.
The Food: This Merlot is an excellent choice to pair with poultry,
grilled meats and especially rare prime rib. Tomato-based pasta sauces
or lamb chops also complement the tannins in this wine.
JANUARY
- New Zealand Gewürztraminer $119.95 The Region: New Zealand’ s largest and best known winegrowing
area provides abundant sunshine, cool nights and a long growing season
helps to build and maintain the vibrant fruit flavors for which Marlborough
is now famous.
The Wine: A gently golden-colored wine, unmistakable in its
heady, aromatic intensity, with a pungent fragrance of lychee, tropical
fruit and rose petals. Its flavors are ample, lusciously fruity and
spicy rather than complex.
The Food: The sweetness draws out strong fruit characteristics
and has good acidity to stand up to spicy food such as Thai or Szechuan
cuisine, strong cheeses and fresh fruits. It also does well with
more savory dishes likes herbed grilled chicken and barbecued salmon.
FEBRUARY
- South African Cabernet Sauvignon $119.95 The Region: Swartland is one of the newest growing regions in
South Africa. Swartland vines are dry-farmed and trained as bushvines,
which enables slow and full maturation.
The Wine: Cabernet from this region is dense, heavy and concentrated
with deep blackberry notes, pepper spiciness, delicate mint and herbal
aromas, along with abundant tannins that blend wonderfully with many different
cuisines.
The Food: Grilled steaks, roasts and other hearty meat–based
dishes which can balance the robust character–but try it with dark chocolate
for an astonishing taste.
MARCH
- Alsatian Riesling $119.95 The Region: Nestled between Switzerland, France and Germany,
Alsace has a history of being rooted in excellent food and wine.
The semi-continental climate makes for some of the most impressive and
powerful white wines in the world.
The Wine: Medium bodied, crisp and steely, it has coy aromas
of white fruits, juicy apple and the perfume of May blossoms. Wonderfully
drinkable, it shows an amazing depth of flavor with minerals, acidity and
structure.
The Food: Alsatian Riesling can hold its own in food pairing
like no other white wine, especially with savory dishes or with fruit–roast
pork loin stuffed with apricots or classic Duck à la’ Orange are
delightful pairings.
APRIL
- Italian Dolcetto $119.95 The Region: Piedmont is the most outstanding and distinctive
wine region in Italy. Piedmont means ‘foot of the mountain’, where
the climate produces enough summer heat to ripen Italy’s most delightful
grape, Dolcetto.
The Wine: Piedmont Dolcetto has black cherry and licorice flavors
with some prunes and a characteristic hint of bitter almond. The dense,
inky purple hue belies its easy drinking character and smooth tannins.
The Food: Pairs wonderfully with dishes like pasta, pizza, grilled
Portobello mushrooms and is particularly splendid with a tomato and mozzarella
salad. Served lightly chilled it is crisper and more fruity than when warm,
and is excellent with lighter dishes, much like a rosé.
