Summer 2008

We are in full swing summer mode and cold beer is flying out the door. Even though we work hard on stocking our frosty cooler with some of the most eclectic and  brew arround, its also are mission to remind you of all of the  summer wine options we offer. We're chilling down our favorite Porch wines in the cooler and showcasing more on our 10 under $10 rack..
Now is the time for thirst quenchers. Light reds, crisp whites and livley roses.  Wine for the shade, in the garden, under the tree, and on the porch. Summer Porch wines  are lighter in alcohol and tannins and some even have a fresh spritz on the end. Think cool, light and refreshing.

Lighten up, my friends!!
Let those Napa Cabs and Barolos collect some dust for a few months and crack into some light and lively Summer wines.
When its 95 degrees outside, adjectives like dark, rich, heavy and concentrated don't sound so appealing.
Cool off with words like crisp, zippy, vibrant, refreshing.

 You don't have to give up REDS either. Gamay, Montepulciano, Pinot Noir, Grenache, Ruche, Lemberger are all grapes that produce wines light in style but heavy on character. They even like a slight chill to them. And let me stress that when you forfeit weight and concentration in a wine, there is no lack of depth or flavor.  Complexity thrives in subtleties, finesse and length.
Whites....
drop the 2 by 4 chardonnay sandwich smothered in butter sauce and grab a a snappy Vinho Verde from Portugal that dances in your mouth with crisp green apples and a slight spritz. Gruner Veltliner from Austria invigorates the weather weary soul. Cool climate Sauvignon Blanc grabs a hold of your face and smacks it around with bracing grapefruit acidity. Kick back with Spain's Verdejo and let the harmonious flavors of cool honey dew melon wash over you. Torrontes from Argentina will lift you up to a patch of white mountain flowers far above the sweltering streets of Denver.
And don't forget all the sensational Pinks that have infiltrated the store. My Rosé battle cry from May carries on throughout the summer. Actually I stand on a giant fuchsia stained box all year and preach the holy pink bible.
So whether its a picnic, your patio, deck, porch or open window, cool off with our wine of the month or any of the "10 under 10" selections.

Here's what you need to get you through the Summer.
