Sexy, Tinto, Vinho Regional Alentejano
50% Touriga Nacional / 25% Aragonês / 15% Cabernet Sauvignon / 10% Syrah
Deep ruby-violet color. Warm aroma of woodland fruits combining with spicy and caramel notes from good French oak. Full bodied, with ripe, well-rounded tannins and an intense black fruit flavor. Refreshing acidity and a very persistent finish.
This wine pairs well with both white and red meats and good company

Tercos, Sangiovese
100% Sangiovese
Italian immigrants introduced the Sangiovese grape to Argentina, and there is still a deep appreciation for Italian culture in Latin America. This deep red Sangiovese has the aromatic intensity of ripe strawberries and black currants, with a good balance between fruit and acidity.
Tercos, the name of the winery, which means “stubborn” in Spanish, underscores the tenacious, burro-like commitment to quality that the Santos brothers possess. Chianti Classico at a Chianti price!

Esprit de Giraud Brut NV [Henri Giraud]
Chardonnay / Pinot Noir
The finest Champagne house virtually no one has ever heard of. Traditionally made, wood-aged Champagnes. Full-bodied, and tasting more like a honeyed white Burgundy with bubbles than a Champagne, this is a stunning effort. Unique, full-throttle, and fresh!
Only two "oak-aged" Champagnes in France. The other is Krug at more than twice the price!

Malbec
Black fruit of great concentration and depth, graceful and supple. Sustainably farmed and made with purity of aroma and intensity of flavor. Delicious , exotic, and deeply complex malbec that matches beautifully with hearty pastas, complex latino dishes, and grilled meats.

Protocolo "White"
Airen / Viura
This is the white version of one of our all-time favorite reds! 87 pts. Subtle aromas of mint, lemon and orange, with a hint of honeysuckle. Dry, understated and focused, offering clean citrus and melon flavors and slow-building sweetness. Finishes dry and brisk, with an echo of lemon
Marcel Martin Cremant Tete de Cuvee NV
Chenin / Chardonnay / Cabernet Franc
Nnice fruit and biscuit on the nose with lemon citrus, apple blossom and bright crisp acidity on the palate. This is a great bubbly to tickle your fancy

Altacima 6.330
Cassis, mora and cherries with some Mocha and vanilla all giving the wine a big aromatic complexity. Taste has the same fruits as in the nose, very juicy with delicate toasted tones of barrels, full bodied, ripe and silky tannins.
It lasts long in the palate with a distinctive elegance.

Discovery, Sauvignon Blanc
100% Sauvignon Blanc
Pale straw Sauvignon Blanc exhibits aromas of lemon zest and citrus characters. It has notes of gooseberry and passionfruit and is refreshingly crisp with good palate weight and a clean finish.This wine has lifted aromatics of lemon zest, passion fruit and a hint of herbs. Flavors follow through nicely with notes of fresh melon and tropical fruits. All this lingers on the palate with generous weight, and a long crisp finish. This wine makes a natural combination with seafood, light meats, pasta, salads, and Asian cuisine.
