Ayinger Oktober Fest
$5.39
Oktober Fest-Marzen is a full-bodied, rich lager with a malty bouquet and a hint of sweetness. Color is deep gold and the flavor is a perfect balance: malt backbone with depth & richness; complimented by perfect conditioning from long maturation; and alcohol of 5.6% by volume. Fest-Marzen is spiced with enough hops to make it snappy and thirst-quenching, but in the classic Bavarian style it's not highly bitter.
Krug Rose NV
$539.74
Krug Rosé was born of the House of Krug’s desire to offer the Krug vision of what a Rosé Champagne should be to those Krug lovers who had been seeking it. It is an unprecedented Champagne with the same creative spirit that goes into Krug Grande Cuvée, beyond the very notion of vintage.
Here is the winery tasting note: "Unexpected subtleness of its pale pink colour, promise of elegance and refinement. Aromas of rose hips, cured ham, mulberries, redcurrant, peony, pepper and pink grapefruit. Delicate flavours of honey, citrus & dried fruit with long ending, enhanced by its subtle bubbles”.
Le Clos des Cazaux Vacqueyras Templiers

Their Gigondas vineyards are situated in the heart of the Dentelles de Montmirail massif range that has been in the family since the 1950s.

The reds are blended primarily from Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. however, they include lesser-known grapes such as Aubun, Counoise, Cinsault, Muscardin and Carignan. The white wines mainly employ old-vine Clairette, complemented by Roussanne, Grenache Blanc, and a little Viognier.
