Wine Club Picks of the Month
Saluti !
Autre Monde's wine club is a great bargain. Our favorite is often the latest one. Like this month's 2018 Lavina, a Spanish blend of Tempranillo and Merlot. If there's any extra we would love to buy more bottles.- Deborah Donovan (wine club member)
Domaine Croix Belle, Chardonnay, France
After the hand-harvest from the best estate’s vineyards, the grapes are fermented at a low
temperature in stainless steel tanks. Then wine was aged in stainless steel tanks for 3 to 4 months,
with stirring of the lees. 5% of the Chardonnay is aged shortly in French oak barrel to bring complexity
to the wine. Rich and creamy without being overpowering on the palate...only 3,000 cases made!
Pair with seared scallops, cream based pasta or oven baked chicken with aromatics!
Domaine Croix Belle, "Camp del Gal" Grenache/Syrah, France
Located in the Languedoc-Roussillon region of southern France. This blend emotes the freshness of spring! Sustainable in practice, with the average age of 20 yr old vines it expresses a ripeness & fresh berries on the palate. Alluvial soil gives a minerality that adds to this lean style.
Pair with a nice hanger steak & frites or a simply strawberry & queso fresco salad.
