White House Bubbly
Jason Larkin, Hillary Clinton’s chef recently did a tasting at Treveri Cellars in Yakima, and he was so impressed with the bubbly that all holiday state department dinners at the White House will now be serving Treveri sparkling wine. A tipster tells us that this is the first time the White House has poured a non-California sparkling wine, since it made the decision to serve domestic bubbly(the French sort of owned this department prior to the 1976 Judgment of Paris, made famous in the Bottle Shock movie). If you're hankering for White House hooch, we have plenty in stock!
Zero One Golden Delicious Riesling
Zero One Vintner's 2009 Golden Delicious Riesling is one of my favourite rieslings. Clean, crisp & off-dry, aromas of baked apples and honey and a taste that is reminiscent of sparkling apple cider (without the sparkle).

Fort Walla Walla Cellars 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon
A few weeks back, we had the great privilege of meeting Jim Moyer, winemaker for Fort Walla Walla Cellars. We enjoyed a wonderful dinner at Molly Ward Gardens, paired with Three of Fort Walla Walla Cellars' Premium Reds. These wines, are, knock your socks off, delicious! Their 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon, which scored 92 points from Wine Spectator, delivers in a big way. Plum, mocha, & vanilla, with a very smooth finish. This wine does not disappoint! My first delivery of this spectacular wine, along with their '07 Merlot & '07 Syrah will be arriving around the first week ...
