Cuvée Cinq Filles

This fruity, spicy red wine is grown just west of the
ancient city of Beziers, in the Languedoc region of
southern France. Francoise Jougla, the owner of
Domaine de Clairac, and her father Claude, have been
involved in French organic viticulture since its rebirth
during the 1960s. Their expertise in the field is
widely respected throughout France. The health and
richness of their wines, and the vines where
they come from, reflect the decades of biological activity
maintained in their soils. Francoise has been managing the
family estate and all winemaking with a palate educated since childhood.

The 2003 vintage is a blend of 70% Grenache, 10% each Syrah, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The Grenache expresses much of the flavor and body common to Languedoc red wines. Merlot and Cabernet add finesse and ripe fruit
flavors. The result is a very robust and drinkable wine with an aromatic nose and spicy, fruity taste. It is a good wine for any lighter meat or cheese dishes as well as
grilled fish and meats. Try a bottle with your next meal and you will appreciate the work this family has contributed to the world of organically grown wines!

Bodegas Navarrsotillo -- Made from a special selection of older vines and matured in american and french oak for 4-6 mos, this wine displays deep cherry hues with hints of burgundy. A complex aroma of red fruits with a bit of licorice influence from oak aging, it is excellent and smooth on the palate. A more serious red than the younger and simpler Noemus from this pioneer organic winery in Rioja. Spain deserves some recognition for a long tradition of heart warming wines now elaborated in high tech facilities. The result is convincing. If you have a chance, go visit the Bodegas Navarsotillo, you will be greeted by big smiles and open hearts, and ...lots of wines to taste!

St Chinian
Château Bousquette

Our All-Time Favorite!! -- The vineyards of Château Bousquette, a 50 acre family estate, drape over the craggy hillsides of a small town called Cessenon, only 30 miles inland from the Mediterranean in the South of France. "Bousquette" (pronounced boo-sket) in French means thicket or grove. The word aptly describes the property: a simple family estate nestled in pine trees, lavender and thyme, overlooking miles of vineyards stretching all the way to the foot of the volcanic mountains, the Cévennes.The vineyards are moderated by the cooling breezes from the sea, giving the grapes a long, even growing season. After a 10 day maceration period, the new wine is racked and pressed into large barrels and aged for about 18 months. The result is a dry, Rhône-style wine that is typical of southern France. Aromas of berry, leather and spice. Very smooth and mouth-filling flavors of ripe plums and black cherry fruit. Warm tannins and a lingering, smooth finish.AOC Saint-Chinian; 35% Grenache, 30% Carignan, 20% Syrah, 15% Mourvedre. Alcohol . . .

Chardonnay
Richmond Plains
-- The Holmes family vineyard has been tended organically since its inception. The region’s cool climate, with long summer days and cold, crisp winters combine to create ideal grape growing conditions. Together with a commitment to organic methods, these conditions have resulted in elegant white wines and well-structured and balanced medium bodied reds.The 2003 Chardonnay Creamy reveals peach aromas with a touch of soft lemon while the flavors are predominately character and structure based rather than big and fruity. The full, easy drinking style has a flinty mineral backbone with soft peach and spice based flavors. The long elegant finish rounds out another great value fine wine from Richmond Plains.
