Summer Sipper Wine Set

Warmer temperatures and sipping on wine make the perfect combination. While summer calls for more al fresco dining, we have curated the ultimate wine set that meets the needs for those warm summer nights. This wine set includes 6 wines that are refreshing, crisp and unique:

Domaine du Bouchot ‘Terres Blanches’ Pouilly-Fumé

JS91 WSI92 A coating of ash and stone over the ripe citrus-fruit and apple notes on the nose. Turns to sweet apple and pear flavors on the medium-bodied, dense and silky palate. Quite a round, fruity feel, but the drive of acidity keeps it moving. The mineral notes return in the aftertaste. From organically grown grapes. Drink now.

Bohigas Brut Reserva Cava

WSI92+ Pale yellow. Fine bubbles forming a constant rosary and persistent crown. Very fresh aroma of white fruit on notes of citric rind and white flowers. A structured cava on the palate, well balanced acidity that tenses the whole from beginning to finish. The bubble gives a sensation of creaminess, providing volume and softness to the structure bestowed by the acidity and extending the aromas of white fruit and spices that repeat on the palate. 

Henri Gaillard Cotes de Provence Rosé

WSI92 From the Côtes De Provence wine region, Henri Gaillard 2020 a dry and vibrant southern French rosé produced from Grenache, Cinsault, Carignan and Syrah grapes. Enticing on the nose with pink florals, fine herbs and strawberry aromas, medium-bodied and fresh on the palate with red berry fruit, cherry, rhubarb, dried herbs and a fresh citrusy finish. 

El Enemigo (Bodegas Aleanna) Mendoza Chardonnay

JS96 WA93+ The 2019 Chardonnay is elegant and subtle, seamless and integrated, with moderate alcohol and great freshness, finishing dry and very tasty. 2019 was a very healthy vintage, and the grapes achieved 13.5% alcohol while keeping very high acidity, which makes the palate vibrant and lively. It was produced with grapes from Gualtallary and that always adds extra freshness when picked at the right time. 

Domaine Nico ‘Grand Père’ Mendoza Pinot Noir

JS94 WA93 Aromas of dried violets, currants, sour cherries, porcini mushrooms, cocoa and lemon zest. It’s full-bodied with tight, fine-grained tannins framing chewy layers of spiced, dried and ripe fruit. It’s very Burgundian, with moderate alcohol and ripeness and silky tannins. 9,330 bottles produced. It was bottled in December 2020.

Casa Lapostolle Colchagua Valley Rosé

JS92 Very attractive sliced peach and hints of cherry and watermelon in the nose and palate. Medium body. Fruity and fresh. Clean and pale pink color, with salmon shades. Nose is elegant and delicate with notes of red fruit aromas such as strawberry and sweet cucumber along with subtle herbal notes. The palate is refreshing, light with nice acidity, with a long lasting finish.
