AVELEDA FONTE VINHO VERDE 2008
Portugal
The Aveleda Vinho Verde brings fresh, tart fruit flavors and a light bodied to the palate; crisp and slight effervescent in the finish.
SERRA ESTRELA ALBARINO 2007
Rias Biax,
Spain
Serra da Estrela Albariño is full-bodied and opulent, with delightful aromas and flavors of apricot, pear and honeysuckle, accented by mineral notes. It makes a natural partner for shellfish and seafood, pasta in creamy sauces and roast chicken.
SEGURA VUIDAS CAVA BRUT ROSE NV
Spain
Delicate and crisp, Segura Viudas Brut Rosé is fresh and fruity with red fruit aromas of raspberry, currant and grenadine. A lingering cherry note on the finish is crowned by a light touch of sweetness. An ideal apéritif with elegant starters like silky pâté, duck potstickers, or glazed prawns.
PALACIOS REMONDO LA VENDIMIA 2006
Rioja,
Spain
Full of bright red fruit with ripe undertones of blackberry jam, fresh plums and hints of the Mediterranean country herbs, this wine is simply harmonious and very well equilibrated. Meant to drink now through the next four years, this wine can be served slightly chilled and is the perfect accompaniment to any dish.
ABADIA RETEURO RIVOLA 2005
Ribera
Del Duero,
Spain
Rívola is brilliant ruby in color with violet highlights. On the nose, the wine is fresh and generously fruity, with impressions of ripe raspberries, strawberries and wild cherries offset by notes of jasmine, spice and mint. The fragrance is confirmed on the palate, which is mellow, fresh and succulent, supported by clean, subtle, sweetly ripe tannins ending in a silky, elegant finish.
