This Month's Selections
Jest Red
Jest Red is not a jest, though it is fun. Made by Belvedere
Winery, located in Healdsburg, Sonoma County, it is a lend
of seven red varietals. According to the winemaker, at the
end of each year there are some odd little gems leftover in
the cellar. He blends them together to make Jest Red. As to
what seven grapes make up this wine, your guess ia as good
as mine. The result, however, is a delightfully flavorable
red wine that is a perfect reminder to all of us that wine
is about enjoyment and fun.
Jest Red………………. $9.99
Jewel 2001 Viognier
Jewel made its debut with the 200 vintage. Located in Lodi,
the goal of the winery is to purchase grapes from the best
vineyards and appellations in California while maintaining
a price point under $10.
This Voignier certainly hits the mark. Voignier, pronounced
(vee-own-yeah) finds its origin in the Rhone Valley of France.
It is one of the Rhone varieties included in the Cotes du
Rhone Blanc. It also makes up the famous wine of Candrieu
and is often added to Chateauneuf-du-Pape to add perfume and
floral notes to the aroma. The wine is usually reminiscent
of apricots, peaches and blossoms. It is meant to be drunk
young, while the perfume is at its most heady and before the
acidity fades.
This classic Voignier is very aromatic, offering aromas of
peaches, with rich citrus flavors. This dry, well-balanced
wine offers a great alternative to Chardonnay, ideal for spring
and summertime, a very refreshing style. Serve with fish,
chicken, pasta and fresh fruit.
Jewel 2001 Voignier……………………..$9.99
