White Wines
Chardonnay
Chardonnay, Black Oak 02, California
glass 8.50 bottle 32.00
A supple wine with aromas of ripe tropical
fruit and a pleasant hint of vanilla oak. A lively acidity gives it a fresh,
crisp note while the creamy oak aging melts into a rich finish.
Chardonnay, Carmen 05, Casablanca Valley, Chile
glass 9.00 bottle 34.00
Made from 100% organically grown chardonnay.
A delicious medium bodied sipping wine with an enticing creamy texture and

toastiness from barrel aging. Complex, beautifully structured and crisp with
a rich mouthfeel and a lingering finish.
Chardonnay, Kinter Collins 03, Sonoma Coast,
Pacheco Vineyard, California bottle 75.00
The cool climate has accentuated the
minerality and tangy acidity of this elegant wine; ripeness contributes
tantalizing tastes of lime and mango. This the winemaker has seasoned
brilliantly with oak, which is smoky, caramelly, vanilla-infused and creamy.
Simply elegant. Only 350 cases made. Silver prize - Finger Lakes
