September
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)
Kumusha Cabernet Sauvignon, South Africa
​
One of the few black owned and operated wineries in SA, and an amazing story. Tinashe had to flee Zimbabwe to avoid being pressed into gang life. Ended up in SA and worked his way from bus boy to Lead Somm at the Test Kitchen, and one of the world's best blind tasters. There is documentary just released about his story. Ripe berry fruit leans to a lighter style which makes it a perfect pairing for more nuanced dishes like duck & pork.
Let's not forget the veg!
Kumusha Chenin Blanc, South Africa

Rich flavors of cantaloupe & pear will highlight any apple segment salad w/crumbled blue cheese. Perfect for a lightly herbed lemon chicken or veal limone!
