Lo & Behold Wine Set

Looking for something new and different in white wines? Here is that something different....that something rare....that something to indulge in.....

From Matthiasson is a traditional Bordeaux Sauvignon Blanc/Semillon blend. Delightfully crisp, fresh, and clean, though rich and complex.

From Relic Wines comes a beautifully mastered Chardonnay from Russian River.

The Scholium Project offers a Sauvignon Blanc/Verdehlo blend that is crisp and delicious.

Forlorn Hope offers a mysterious field blend so to speak, the blend is inspired by Austrian Gemischter Satz. It is homage to the some of the old ways of growing. You never know for sure what is in the glass. But to tell you it is delicious to have would be an understatement.

Poe Wines offers a delectable delight of a Chardonnay,  aged in 40% new French oak coming off two Napa vineyards. This sintalating wine is beyond words.

The last but not least in this glorious set of whites comes from Kesner Wines. This Sauvignon Blanc is refreshingly crisp but delightfully complex in flavors.

Keep in mind a small number of these sets were produced (500 total). We have just a few of these left. Hurry in and see why we sought this match out.

Tobias Chardonnay

Man o' man, this chardonnay has aromas of vanilla, tropical fruit, ripe melon and a hint of spice while having flavors of rich apples with firm acidity and the low percent of secondary (malolatic) fermentation that they use gives it nice warm buttery notes. Using 30% new French Oak during the first 6 months and 10% for the last 6, the presence is there but very well balanced into what this Chardonnay offers.

Tobias Cabernet

Here is yet another wine that I discovered once again by meandering through the wine department. Something that is definitely unassuming by its simple yet elegant labeling. I am almost ashamed that I hadn't noticed it before now. With its later than average ripening, two years in new French Oak and racking time; the process creates a wonderfully rich and complex juice that has a soft, balanced, and lingering finish. Tobias shows that his cabernet shows layers of complex fruit and hints of oak are far above the juice's understated $40 price tag. This one should definitely leave you and your guests wishing to have another bottle.

Domaine de Pouy

This beautiful Ugni Blanc/Colombard blend has brillant aromatics the beholds a crisp freshness. With wonderfully floral green apple, the very crisp and mouthwatering fruit makes this French white a steal at under $9.

Those who know the La Flor label know mainly the Malbec that comes from Pulenta Estates. One of  the additions to our collection is this beautiful blend of 45% Malbec, 45% Cabernet, and 10% Merlot.

Christian and Anastasia Translated

Yes, you read that right! Forget what different shades of grey there are and look for Fifty Shades of Grey White Silk and Red Satin. These white and red wines will surely indulge you in fantasy just as the books have! E.L. James has brought to us an extension of the trilogy that has taken the country by storm. With wine being a frequently referenced object in the books, these are almost like having the personalities of Christian and Anastasia translated into wines!

This decadent blend has flavors of black cherry, cocoa powder, creamy caramel and vanilla, leather and clove spice. With all its richness, it comes at an understated tag of around $15.

Floral aromatics of lychee, honey and pear are tempered by flavors of crisp grapefruit, mineral and lush pear with a faint hint of butterscotch. The playfulness of this wine meets its shyness of price at around $15.
