Ok...We do love the baby rhino on the label but this dry, elegant rose from Toscana stands up on its own.
-
2012 Orogeny Chardonnay Russian River $20
Want a Chard that over delivers? This is for you. And the name is kinda fun too.
-
2012 Longoria Pinot Noir Lovely Rita $34
A Lovely, lovely expression of Pinot Noir from Santa Rita Hills.
-

2011 Foradori Teroldego Sgarzon ($48)
2011 Foradori Teroldego Morei ($48)
-
The grape? Teroldego. The vineyards? Northern Italy near the Austrian border. The winery? Foradori where Elisabetta creates these epic wines aged in amphora. Organic and Biodynamic.
-
The closest description we have when asked what does Teroldego taste line is this: It's a cross between the best Pinot Noir from Burgundy & the hansomely rugged Sagiovese from Brunello. Epic wines.

 

2011 Domaine Perrot-Minot Chambolle-Musigny $106

This is one of those wines that I could not get out of my mind for days. I thought about it all evening after that first glass. It was on my mind as I drove to work the next day. By closing time I had had enough and just ordered the darn wine.

From 90-100 year old vines. A Burghound 'Outstanding'
 

2009 Ramirez de la Piscina Crianza Rioja $16.50

Our most popular Rioja to date. Nice black cherry, licorice, minerals, and espresso, Lively, Savory, Polished.

Great with chicken mole, lamb gyros, or just plain by itself.
 

2012 Dominique Cornin Beaujolais Blanc $18.50

How many Beaujolais Blancs have we tasted that we loved? Less than a handful. So last Sunday we were filling up on Fish Tacos at The Hungry Cat and we see this wine on their list. Hmmm. The price was right so we ordered and were utterly surprised. A Chardonnay that jumps out of the glass. Well-balanced, great acidity and LOTS going on. A perfect pairing with the food. Try a glass then stop in for a few bottles.

New Arrivals:
2012 Dragonette Sauvignon Blanc Happy Canyon $26.50
-
White peach, cream, vibrant yet lush with a long pure finish. WOW!
2011 Newton Chardonnay Unfiltered $40

Classic California Chardonnay at its best!

Your best price is here at Renegade (up to $65 elsewhere!)
   
2012 Melville Pinot Noir Block M $58
-
Gorgeous purity, and a lengthy finish. This wine along with their 2012 Terraces Vineyard Pinot Noir ($58) are drinking wonderfully now but can be cellared for a decade or more. 		2010 WM Harrison Cabernet Franc $42

What do we really think? This is the best Cabernet Franc in California. Period.

Rich with intens e concentration. Cedar, blackberry, dark stone fruits, cassis, with floral highlights and a whiff of white pepper. Awesome Franc!
