Wine Lab Newport News

Full Moon Sale & Party Thursday - Saturday (closed Sunday)

On most full moons we make arrangement with winery and broker to bring you the lowest price possible for good wines. Tomorrow through Saturday you can taste and, if you like, bring home great deals on the following wines:

	Regular Price	Full Moon Price	Savings
2006 Coquelicot Chardonnay Santa Ynez	$28.00	$15.13	$12.87
2006 Coquelicot Riesling Santa Ynez	$16.00	$12.48	$3.52
2006 Windsor Oaks Estate Pinot Noir RRV	$53.00	$34.24	$10.80
2005 Windsor Oaks Reserve Cabernet Chalk Hill	$40.00	$31.85	$8.15
2002 Matrix Bordeaux Blend Dry Creek	$40.00	$31.85	$8.15

Coquelicot is the French name for the red poppy often found in the countryside. I visited this new winery (in Los Olivos) at the end of last year. The fruit is estate grown in Santa Ynez and the wines are very well made.

Windsor Oaks' Vineyard is one of the viticultural crown jewels of Sonoma, located both in the Russian River Valley, and also overlaps into the mountain vineyard blocks of the Chalk Hill appellation. The estate supplies fruit to 35+ vintners including Williams-Selyem, Merryvale, Pax, Eric/Kent Cellars, Papapietro Perry, Anthill Farms, Sojourn Cellars and many more. Each year they select grapes from some of the top blocks and make a few barrels -- total production in 2005 was 350 cases.

Thursday we'll taste these wines from 5 - 9 PM for $16 ($10 for Insider Club Members.)
They will also be on the flight through and on sale through Saturday!

Better than Dharma Box Wine...

Cheap but Good flights of 3 wines for $5 includes 2007 Les Jamelles Pinot Noir for under $10/bottle! Fruit forward and smooth with delicious raspberry and cherry. Drop by and try the wines - it's more fun than a grocery store.
(Yes, I am a Lost fan!)

My limited allocation of 2006 Justin Isosceles ($58.89 club) and The Orphan ($16.14 club) is coming!
(Probably by Friday - check the blog for confirmation)
