Their Falanghina is beautifully aromatic with a rich palate of peach, tropical fruit and lime. A mouthwatering wine!   Koha, Pinot Noir 2017  $19.99 Te Pa is an award-winning winery out of New Zealand run by the Whanau family. They have a long history with the land where they farm, as their ancestors began living on the property in the 1800’s. This has given the family not only a long history on the land but a connection and understanding of the best sites for growing grapes. Koha is their second label focused on delivering quality, value driven wines and this Pinot Noir delivers on both fronts. It’s medium bodied with red fruit, clove, herbal notes and a balance of tannin and acidity. Pair this with salmon or pop open and enjoy on its own.   Pala, Cannonau di Fiori 2017  $17.99 Cannonau, the local name for the Grenache,  has been growing in Sardinia since the Neolithic period and is one of the most widely planted varietals on the island. For this bottle, fermentation takes place in stainless steel and concrete tanks then rests for 2-3 months in bottle before release. The resulting wine is soft and fresh with intense dark berry, violets and spice.   BULL RUN AMERICAN SINGLE MALT WHISKEY Bashir from The Little Wine Co. Saturday, July 13th, 6pm-8pm 5% Discount On Tasting Spirits Bull Run American Single Malt Whiskey   $50.99 From the State of Oregon we're tasting Bull Run, an American Single Malt Whiskey. The vision behind the distillation of Bull Run is that it be a whiskey that reflects the place where it's made, the Klamath Basin of Oregon and California. The goal of the creators of Bull Run was nothing less than a new style of American Whiskey and they succeeded. Made from 100% malted barley from the Klamath Basin and aged in new American oak barrels, influenced through the years by Western Oregon's four distinct seasons. Complex and robust enough to enjoy neat or over a large cube of ice, we get flavors of ripe fruit with hints of grass and sage. The finish on the palate is soft and balanced, with a richness of the malt.   SPIRIT OF THE MONTH White Walker by Johnnie Walker  White Walker by Johnnie Walker $45.99 A limited edition blended scotch whisky. Featuring notes of caramelized sugar and vanilla, fresh red berries with a touch of orchard fruit. This whisky develops in complexity as it warms to room temperature. Always available for tasting!  WINE NEWS It’s Time to Rethink Wine Criticism It’s time to consider a better model that might be more useful to consumers and would empower them to make their own choices 12 Wine Terms Every Wine Lover Should Know A helpful guide to some often used wine terms.
