Campuget Saperavi

Campuget is a family estate with
vineyards situated 15 Km south
of Nimes. The Chateau itself was
built in 1753 at the same time the
vines were planted, prompting
the '1753' range of wines. This
wine is produced in a traditional
way and without sulfites and is
pleasant to drink as soon as it is
bottled.
Wine Club Tasting Notes

Campuget Saperavi
On the nose, the
expression of morello
cherry is surprising. On
the palate, the tannins are
supple, rich, powerful.
Finally, a precise and
rigorous aging made it
possible to keep the wine
all its freshness, a
guarantee of long aging. A
surprising grape variety,
a real discovery.

Dobbes Grenache Blanc

Neutral barrel fermentation adds body
and roundness to the mouthfeel to
support the mouthwatering acid
carrying into a vibrant long finish.
2020 marks the 12th vintage of this
unique varietal from Crater View
Vineyard, one of the only Grenache
Blanc plantings in Oregon. This style of
vibrant acid driven white wine can be
enjoyed in its youth and also h as
proven to be excellent for aging.
Wine Club Tasting Notes

Delicate floral and citrus
notes of jasmine and lemon
carry the aroma accented
with tropical pineapple.
The aroma carries onto the
palate with flavors of green
mango, citrus zest,
pineapple and a hint of
vanilla.

Fuedo Montoni Grillo della Timpa

Timpa is the name of the cru from
which the grapes hail. The name has
its origins in the Sicilian word,
"timpa" meaning strong slope. In
fact the vineyard climbs up a hill
with a degree that exceeds 70%.
Fermentation takes place in cement
containers, in contact with the skins
for a quarter of the fermentation
process.
Wine Club Tasting Notes

Straw yellow in color with
green reflections. The nose
has strong notes of yellow
peach and apricot, with
floral aromas of Sicilian
Spanish broom and almond
flowers on the finish. On
the palate, it is fresh,
persistent and has a
remarkable acidity that is
well-balanced with the
alcohol. It has a long and
soft finish.
