National Wine Day is Friday, May 25! We've got you covered to celebrate the day and all summer long with our All-American wines plus our Nation's warm weather favorite, rosé! Stock up for the season! 

Dry Creek Vineyard, Chenin Blanc, 2017 - $11.99

For Dry Creek family winery Chenin Blanc is a passion. They are proud to have produced Dry Chenin Blanc each and every year of their 45-year history. “Orange-marmalade aromas set the stage for a rather full-bodied, dry and flavorful wine. Floral and fruity elements are counter-balanced by a tangy texture and subtle mineral accents. A classic of the type, it has a lot of personality, a great presence on the palate and a lingering finish.” 91 pts. Best Buy, Wine Enthusiast

Chateau Revelette, Rosé, Coteaux d'Aix en Provence, France, 2016 - $14.99
Our best-selling rosé! "Lively, mineral-accented red berry and citrus fruit scents, backed by a deeper suggestion of cherry pit. Concentrated yet lithe in character, offering incisive red currant and blood orange flavors and a touch of honeysuckle. The mineral note drives a long, focused finish that shows very good clarity and no rough edges." International Wine Cellar, 90 pts. 

Brandborg, Bench Lands, Pinot Noir, Umpqua Valley, Oregon, 2014 - $21.99

May is also Oregon Wine Month! Celebrate with Pinot produced by husband and wife team Terry and Sue Brandborg. Aromas dominated by ripe red cherries, blueberries, hints of cranberry with overtones of wild mountain meadow herbs and wildflowers. Flavors add raspberries to the cherries, with some orange pith, coffee and mocha. Mouthfeel is filling and supple and the acidity gives it a nice zing, to compliment a moderately long finish and make this very food friendly. Pairs well with fatty fish like salmon or tuna, roasted and herbed mushrooms or grilled meats and barbeque sauce!

Dry Creek Vineyard, Zinfandel, Heritage Vines, 2016 - $20.99
The development of heritage vines began as an experimental project initiated in 1982 to preserve the tradition and “heritage” of old Zinfandel vineyards. Today, these represent the standard for delicious, well balanced Zinfandel from Sonoma County. "Enticing aromatics of black cherry, boysenberry and plum with a hint of toast and white pepper. On the palate, brambly flavors of black raspberry and dark chocolate come forward. Complex, with bright acidity complimented by notes of berry jam and a touch of ginger. Tannins are silky and smooth to lend a round, rich mouthfeel. From start to finish, this remarkable wine offers refreshing acidity paired with excellent structure." Winery notes. Certified California Sustainable Vineyard and Winery!


Dry Creek Vineyard, Cabernet Sauvignon, Dry Creek Valley, Sonoma County, 2015 - $24.99
An impeccable Cabernet Sauvignon displaying lively aromatics of black cherry, black currant and plum. Additional airing reveals nuances of leather and toasted almonds. Palate is full-bodied and rich with elegant flavors of black raspberries and cocoa powder. The wine is fruit-forward and youthful, with moderate tannins and a finish of white pepper. Very characteristic of a Dry Creek Valley Bordeaux. It offers intensity and richness and reflects the terroir beautifully. “This wine is predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon, blended with small amounts of Merlot, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec. Smoky, toasted oak underlies rounded layers of blueberry, black cherry and plum, leaving the palate rich and pleasing.” Wine Enthusiast, 90 pts. & Editor’s Choice!
