The Wines!!

Willakenzie Pinot Gris, Willamette Valley, 2017 $22.99
All stainless, no malolactic and widely available distribution make this a pure-blooded warm weather go-to white wine. It's young and still a bit yeasty, aromatic with scents of seeds and grains. Tightly wound fruit flavors of apple and green melon come with good depth and texture.
 
Mercer Reserve Chardonnay, Horse Heaven Hills, 2015 $32.99
Barrel fermentation and sur lie aging has created a Chardonnay that is both elegant and robust.  Flavors of caramelized apricots in a honey glaze, dusted with saffron and served with vanilla bean ice cream continue through the finish.
 
Erath Resplendent Pinot Noir, Oregon, 2015 $19.99
Luscious loganberry, Bing cherry and rising bread dough waft forth with a pleasing hint of caramel and aromatic sandalwood. The smooth, weighty palate offers cherry candy, pomegranate, candied orange peel and a touch of anise concluding with a nicely uplifting finish."
 
Drumheller Cabernet Sauvignon, Columbia Valley , 2015 $14.99
The aromas of plum and blue fruit bring appeal but don't seem entirely varietal. Flavors are sweet, backed by lightly tacky-feeling tannins. It delivers easy-drinking enjoyment, though characteristics of the variety seems hard to find.
 
K Vintners Motor City Kitty Syrah, Washington State, 2015 $39.99
With all the depth and richness you've come to expect from this single vineyard bottling - black cherry, earth, roasted meat, even charcoal abounds add dried herb. A thread of minerality and it all comes together in an exact and generous expression that speaks volumes as to why Washington Syrah is great!

The Beers!!

Wheat Double IPA | 8.5%
White Out is correction fluid for your mouth! Pillowy soft with a bright hue and notes of white grape, Meyer lemon, bold tropical fruits, and ripe, juicy pears. These fruity notes present like candy on the nose, while a balanced but noticeable bitterness keeps this beer clean and refreshing.?

Dinkel Acker OktoberFest Marzen 4 pack $6.99
Amber in color, this beer has a strong, dense white head with great retention. You will detect pleasant aromas of caramel and honey with a good balance of malt and fruity notes.

Evil Twin Even More Pecan Pie Jesus Imperial Stout $4 pack $18.99
Imperial Stout brewed with Molasses and with Pecan Extract added A few times in the history of craft beer a highly praised beer rises beyond mortal stardom into a higher godly league.

People – this is the taste of rare!
