The Wines!!

Capture Tradition Sauvignon Blanc $21.99
Our flagship wine, the Tradition Sauvignon Blanc elevates the purity of the variety through stainless steel fermentation and ten months of sur lie aging. The result is an expression of bright citrus such as lime peel, white stonefruit and green apple fragrances. Our vineyards highlight the ideal characteristics for Sauvignon Blanc with mineral texture, brilliant acidity and a fresh finish.

Davis Bynum Chardonnay, Carneros $19.99
Enticing aromas of baked Fuji apples, lemon custard and white flowers. Toasty brioche, hazelnut and baking spice notes on the palate with a lush and creamy finish.

Grapes of exceptional quality from a noble terroir allow Château d’Aquéria to craft a quintessential Tavel, widely appreciated as the finest wine of its appellation. Grapes are handpicked from Château d’Aquéria’s own vineyards, which span 163 acres across the sandy slopes of Tavel. The mesoclimate is ideal for cultivating Grenache and crafting crisp, fresh rosé wines. Using its cutting-edge weather station located in the heart of the vineyards, Château d’Aquéria precisely monitors weather conditions and adjusts vineyard practices accordingly. The grapes are hand harvested and destemmed, followed by a maceration to extract color. The grapes are then pressed and each variety is vinified separately, undergoing temperature-controlled maceration and fermentation in stainless steel vats. The wines see no malolactic fermentation and no oak contact. The winemaker assembles an initial blend in November and then a second blending takes place in January before bottling.

Kim Crawford Small Vineyard Pinot Noir, Otago $24.99
When flavor is at the core of your philosophy, grapes become the defining factor in ensuring excellent wine. Our Philosophy on making good wine is simple: 
focus on flavor.

This Belgian-style blonde ale, collaborated on by both Jackie O’s and The Answer Brewpub, is fermented with yeast from Belgium-based Brasserie De Bastogne before being dry-hopped with Mandarin Bavaria hops.
