Champagnes

Taittinger Comtes de Champagne 1998
The vintage Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs is only produced in exceptional years. It is made exclusively from the pressing of chardonnay grapes from the best vineyard in the Cote des Blancs. It is unique in elegance and lightness.

Champagne Charles Heidsieck
This is a truly fine Champagne house whose quality has increased dramatically over the last years and this cuvee really displays the art of blending. This Chardonnay dominated blend (Pinot-Noir, Pinot-Meunier) has a good maturity and is showing aromas of ripe stone fruits, roasted nuts and fresh bread. The palate is smooth and creamy with an elegant freshness and light mousse, very distinct with fine fruit, some mineral character and a long, clean finish.

White Wines

Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru 2004/2006
Corton-Charlemagne is one of the most famous white wine appellations of all time. This Chardonnay is a very bright and precise wine that is impressive due to the combination of concentration and purity that despite its very full body feels feather light on the palate. Vintage 2004 was superb for fine white Burgundy and the wines are very clear and well defined. The nose is very pure and shows the typical stony and flinty mineral character so typical of this vineyard, this is underlined by ripe fruit, citrus and hazelnuts. On the palate the flavours explode and the succulent fruit is backed up by a very firm acidity and its greatness is summarized on the very long aftertaste.

Gewurztraminer Herrenweg de Turckheim 2004
How does one describe Gewurztraminer in a few words? Well, spicy, rich, exotic and lush would do it well and especially for this wine, coming from one of the absolute top producers of Alsace. The wine is a result from biodynamic winemaking, meticulous work in the vineyard and a careful and natural winemaking. The result is a rich and exotic nose of yellow plums, apricots, spices and roses. The palate is rich and gives you an impression of sweetness, balanced by a mineral character and a beautiful spiciness, very long and lingering aftertaste.

Red Wines

Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte, Grand Clue Classe, Graves 2004
This refined and redolent wine truly reflects a stylish Bordeaux terrior embellished by a modern winemaking. This well renowned Chateau is found on the best terrior in Pessac-Leognan. On the well-drained gravely soils the grapes (Cabernet sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet franc) reached an optimum ripeness in 2004 and the wine is today accessible where the nose is brimming with aromas of black currants, dark cherries, dark chocolate and minerals, the silky palate has a full body with excellent and firm tannins balanced by a classical freshness with layers of dark fruit that lingers on the complex and long aftertaste.

Charmes Chambertin Grand Cru 1998
Charmes Chambertin is a grand cru vineyard in the nothernmost past of Burgundy where the wines can be some of the most powerful yet silky burgundies. This particular and very fine example shows a fine balance between luscious fruit and distinct terrior character. This is a dry and medium bodied red wine made from Pinot Noir. This wine is utterly enjoyable today with elegant nose that offers black fruit, boxwood and sweet spices. The palate has a fine development and a very silky structure with smooth fruit, and a very long and nuanced aftertaste.

Dessert Wines

Blandy's 10 Years Old Malmsey Madiera
Blandy's Malmsey Madeira is the best known fortified wine of Madeira Island, Portugal. Its scent harmonizes with the flavors of chocolate, tangerine and vanilla and caresses the palate. Rich in apricot aroma, its elegant sweetness is best enjoyed with desserts or on its own after a meal.

Port Sandeman 20 Years Old Tawny Port
Specially selected Portos are chosen for aging in wooden casks, which concentrates their fruit and flavour. It has a rich yet elegant combination flavours of dried apricots, honey, nuts, spices, vanilla - creates an endless scent of the wine that unfolds and develops smoothly in the mouth.

Jackson-Tirggs Vidal VQA Ice Wine 2006
The 2006 Jackson-Triggs Vidal VQA Icewine comes from VQA Niagara Peninsula. It displays rich tropical aromas of papaya, mango and apricot. Bold fruit flavors balanced with fine acidity caress the palate and conclude with an exquisite silky finish. The naturally frozen grapes for vidal Icewine were harvested and pressed at an average -10C, thus enhancing the varietal sweetness and concentrated aromatic flavors.

The vintage Comtes de Champagne Blanc de Blancs is only produced in exceptional years. It is made exclusively from the pressing of chardonnay grapes from the best vineyard in the Cote des Blancs. It is unique in elegance and lightness.

Champagne Charles Heidsieck
This is a truly fine Champagne house whose quality has increased dramatically over the last years and this cuvee really displays the art of blending. This Chardonnay dominated blend (Pinot-Noir, Pinot-Meunier) has a good maturity and is showing aromas of ripe stone fruits, roasted nuts and fresh bread. The palate is smooth and creamy with an elegant freshness and light mousse, very distinct with fine fruit, some mineral character and a long, clean finish.

White Wines

Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru 2004/2006
Corton-Charlemagne is one of the most famous white wine appellations of all time. This Chardonnay is a very bright and precise wine that is impressive due to the combination of concentration and purity that despite its very full body feels feather light on the palate. Vintage 2004 was superb for fine white Burgundy and the wines are very clear and well defined. The nose is very pure and shows the typical stony and flinty mineral character so typical of this vineyard, this is underlined by ripe fruit, citrus and hazelnuts. On the palate the flavours explode and the succulent fruit is backed up by a very firm acidity and its greatness is summarized on the very long aftertaste.

Gewurztraminer Herrenweg de Turckheim 2004
How does one describe Gewurztraminer in a few words? Well, spicy, rich, exotic and lush would do it well and especially for this wine, coming from one of the absolute top producers of Alsace. The wine is a result from biodynamic winemaking, meticulous work in the vineyard and a careful and natural winemaking. The result is a rich and exotic nose of yellow plums, apricots, spices and roses. The palate is rich and gives you an impression of sweetness, balanced by a mineral character and a beautiful spiciness, very long and lingering aftertaste.

Red Wines

Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte, Grand Clue Classe, Graves 2004
This refined and redolent wine truly reflects a stylish Bordeaux terrior embellished by a modern winemaking. This well renowned Chateau is found on the best terrior in Pessac-Leognan. On the well-drained gravely soils the grapes (Cabernet sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet franc) reached an optimum ripeness in 2004 and the wine is today accessible where the nose is brimming with aromas of black currants, dark cherries, dark chocolate and minerals, the silky palate has a full body with excellent and firm tannins balanced by a classical freshness with layers of dark fruit that lingers on the complex and long aftertaste.

Charmes Chambertin Grand Cru 1998
Charmes Chambertin is a grand cru vineyard in the nothernmost past of Burgundy where the wines can be some of the most powerful yet silky burgundies. This particular and very fine example shows a fine balance between luscious fruit and distinct terrior character. This is a dry and medium bodied red wine made from Pinot Noir. This wine is utterly enjoyable today with elegant nose that offers black fruit, boxwood and sweet spices. The palate has a fine development and a very silky structure with smooth fruit, and a very long and nuanced aftertaste.

Dessert Wines

Blandy's 10 Years Old Malmsey Madiera
Blandy's Malmsey Madeira is the best known fortified wine of Madeira Island, Portugal. Its scent harmonizes with the flavors of chocolate, tangerine and vanilla and caresses the palate. Rich in apricot aroma, its elegant sweetness is best enjoyed with desserts or on its own after a meal.

Port Sandeman 20 Years Old Tawny Port
Specially selected Portos are chosen for aging in wooden casks, which concentrates their fruit and flavour. It has a rich yet elegant combination flavours of dried apricots, honey, nuts, spices, vanilla - creates an endless scent of the wine that unfolds and develops smoothly in the mouth.

Jackson-Tirggs Vidal VQA Ice Wine 2006
The 2006 Jackson-Triggs Vidal VQA Icewine comes from VQA Niagara Peninsula. It displays rich tropical aromas of papaya, mango and apricot. Bold fruit flavors balanced with fine acidity caress the palate and conclude with an exquisite silky finish. The naturally frozen grapes for vidal Icewine were harvested and pressed at an average -10C, thus enhancing the varietal sweetness and concentrated aromatic flavors.
