Alicia Seay Elizabeth Spencer Sauvignon Blanc, Mendocino, California 2015
$17.50 $14.00
Impeccable balance between appealing ripeness and refreshingly bright acidity that is characteristic of old vine, organically-farmed Mendocino fruit. Aromatic with sweet citrus and ripe stone fruits, while nuanced by minerality and slate, this is a style of Sauvignon Blanc as delicious as it is versatile.

Elizabeth Spencer Grenache, Mendocino, California 2014

Elizabeth Spencer Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, California 2013
$40.00 $31.00
A seriously delicious dry rose, produced from a whole-cluster pressing of Mendocino Grenache that is farmed exclusively for this wine. Our rose is lush and exuberant, with generous ripe strawberry, melon and guava fruit, shaded by spicy zest and tangy minerality.
21
With a nod toward Rhone, we endeavor to capture the freshness, juicy snap and stony vigor of Grenache. Ours is also unmistakably laden with an abundance of California fruit: strawberries, spicy red currants and Bing cherries. A mid-weight wine with heavyweight intensity.
22
Blended from the select vineyards of our grower partners in the finest Napa appellations to reflect a classic conception of the Valley as a whole, our Cabernet is balanced and approachable, affording real complexity in its youth. A core of black raspberry and dark plum is ornamented with nuances of savory herb, cocoa powder and cigar box. This is a focused and fresh cabernet. A16

90 Points: Smart Buy - Wine Spectator (July 2016) “Though rich, this is offset by vivid acidity, creating a nice tension to the lemon, apple and melon flavors. Long and tangy on the finish. “A wine that smiles and makes you smile! It is stylistically close to Pouilly-Fuisse, with its golden hue, its greenish reflection and its refreshing taste.”
56
91 Points: Editors’ Choice - Wine Enthusiast (August 2016) “Though pale in hue, this is big in flavor. It’s a textbook Pinot Noir Rose, sharp, tight and showing deep flavors of rhubarb, rosewater and strawberry fruit. There’s exceptional length along with the lovely, fresh fruit flavors.” Whole cluster pressed and fermented in stainless steel, the 2015 Rose opens with exotic notes of rosewater and ruby red grapefruit followed by subtle floral aromatics of jasmine and other white flowers.”
57
90 Points: Editors Choice - Wine Enthusiast (August 2016) “This new sister label from Elk Cove offers 100% Willamette Valley Pinot Noir at an everyday price. Fresh cranberry and raspberry fruit is framed by herb tinged tannins. The immaculate craftsmanship and clean direct flavors are light years beyond budget Pinot Noir from most other regions. This is your perfect salmon wine.” - Paul Gregutt Hand Harvested and Hand Sorted
58
90 Points: Editors’ Choice - Wine Enthusiast (November 2015) “Very ripe aromas and flavors resemble sweet raisins and prunes, but the flavors are dry and more savory than outright fruity. Black pepper, dark chocolate and charred beef notes seem perfect to pair with a grilled steak or giant portobello mushroom. It’s a big-boned but well balanced wine.” 61% Syrah, 29% Grenache, 10% Sangiovese Pawleys Island Wine Gala

Firm tannins and balsamic acidity impart structure, and this shows plenty of depth, with a juicy, spicy finish.”
60
93 Points: Highly Recommended - Wine Advocate “The entrylevel red and largest volume of Abadia Retuerta, the 2012 Seleccion Especial, is nothing like the initial oaky versions you might remember. This is produced as a blend of Tempranillo with 15% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Syrah from the 54 separate plots that they have identified in their 180 hectares of vineyards. This 2012 matured in French (60%) and American (40%) barrels for 14 months. This is the wine that has improved the most, and it’s now a fine, elegant wine with restrained power, true to the place where it’s born.There are some spicy aromas intermixed with the wild berry aromas, developing some balsamic undertones, licorice and a little bit of toast. The texture is very fine with dusty tannins, good acidity and freshness.”

On the nose are floral aromas of cherry and red fruits, with a round palate of dark cherry and forest floor flavors and a lovely Pinot Noir finish.
This dense red colored wine gives a full and rich fruit nose of spicy plum, wild berries, and cassis. The mouth is lush and full, with plenty of spice and dark fruit; plum, blackberry, and cassis leading to a very well balanced and long finish.

The aromas in the glass are pure cabernet fruit from the start, with deep flavors of both red and black fruits. A touch of wood from 2 months in barrel simply adds an elegrant structure to the wine, while keeping the quality and power of the fruit up front.
