Smooth and refreshing, this shows notes of kiwi, peach, apricot and subtle spice, with a dry, firm structure. This is a dynamic wine full of energy, it is a live wire. There is a tangy orange zest character that gives some tightness, suggesting it can age. 2013 Villa Wolf Pinot Noir Rose Pfalz, Germany Regularly $12.99 This Week Only $11.69 Perfect Summer Sipper. Appearing a pretty salmon color in the glass, the wine is dry with a touch of softness. It shows a nose of red apple skin and ripe peach. A taste shows more of the cherry and peach. Not everybody makes a rosé from the Pinot Noir grape, so this is a pretty rare type of wine. Definitely worth a try for rosé lovers. Will pair with nicely with lighter fare and spicy foods. 2012 Anderra Carmenere Central Valley, Chile Regularly $9.99 This Week Only $8.99 Deep Garnet with a velvety purple edge.

The flavor profile is dense, dark garnet color. Aromas of juicy dark fruit, vanilla and coco burst out of the glass. The palate is so rich that it can almost be chewed on.

This wine is a tribute to the winemakers grandfathers, Anthony and Dominic, that carried the names before them. Cheers Granddads!
