Chateau Redortier Beaumes de Venise - $17.00

Chateau Redortier Beaumes de Venise(No rating yet)

Wine geeks know of Gigondas and Vacqueras that show off Grenache like no other. Bordering both is Beaumes de Venise which is known for fortified Muscat. On a steep hillside (at 1500 ft!) twin sisters Sabine and Isabelle make this earthy, spicy blend of Grenache, Syrah and Counoise. A gorgeous wine.

From the producer.

The sisters Sabine and Isabelle de Menthon beam when they talk about their 40+ acres of vines in the appellation of Beaumes-de-Venise. The vines are a great source of pride to the Menthon sisters and they hold them quite dear. Fifty-five year-old plantings of Grenache, Syrah, and Counoise from 1574 foot elevations are handpicked, sorted a minimum of two times and fermented from indigenous yeast. The wines are raised in cement tanks and finished in large oak foudres – thereby capturing the fragrant natural aromas of fig, sweet spice, plum and warm earth, all without manipulation or overextraction.

  • Sweet Sunset Chocolate Merlot

    #1 Sweet Sunset Chocolate Merlot

    First lets say that this is Not ChocoVine. This wine is actually made with eighty five percent Merlot and than has natural chocolate cream added to the mix. This is the wine for anyone looking for sweet red or the chocolate lover at home. Great gift for the holidays.

    #2 Contado Di Majo Aglianico

    How have we not tasted Molise Aglianico before now? This rich, dark and handsome Italian can stand up to anything from Tuscany. Hand harvested, 6 months on French oak. Southern Italy's premier grape. tied

  • Baglio delle Fate

    #3 Baglio delle Fate

    A native grape of Sicily, this 100% Nero d'Avola is a great deal! Brambly red, blue and black fruits, savory dried herbs and earth. Full body, juicy, smooth tannins! (behind by 1 bottles)

  • Armas de Guerra Rose

    #4 Armas de Guerra Rose

    My heavens! 50+ year old, organic Mencia vines from some of the highest vineyards in Bierzo. Subtle aromas of strawberry, pink grapefruit and white pepper play with clean river rock minerality touched by zesty key lime. Balance and finish are tied together with a vibrating acidity. Structured and executed like a world class ballerina doing flamenco. Sells out every year for good reason. Lighter than Provence, a different planet than White Zin. The only hard part is only opening one bottle at a time. tied

Fun New Arrivals

    Gotes del Priorat

    A slightly different and wonderful lighter take on Priorat. The gorgeous blue slate show immediately on the nose, Carignan is there but with richness and elegance. Really pretty and an homage to the fruit. Gorgeous leather and blue black fruit flavors with spice and soft leather. Organic, hand picked and just 9 months in French, this really is a lovely wine!

    Three Brooms

    This single vineyard, certified sustainable sav blanc shows lovely white flower, chili pepper, and gooseberry on the nose with some sandy mineralogy. Very nice weight and balance showing passion fruit, ripe apple flavors. Such a pleasant surprise is the roundness, the acid is lively and energetic but not abrasive.
