06 Kubler Riesling "K" $21.00
The Kubler Riesling offers the best profile a finer, value-priced Alsatian Riesling can provide, showing vibrant floral and citrus notes which follow through to the flint-accented, clean body of the wine. There's a hint of the classic "petrol" as well in the nose, which is the sign of a great Riesling! The finish on this sings, and shows that it is a superb wine to be chilled and enjoyed on a warm day when the foods are of a wide variety, but some of them needing a sharper wine in order to hold up.

07 Artazuri Rose $8.70
Now's the chance to try this great rose, which is a bit stronger than your average pink or copper colored rose. The flavors are full and bright, and reflect the nature of Grenache, which is always a zesty, spicy number: taut raspberry, cherry, and even some citrus notes fill the palate before some intriguing spice notes produce a delightfully vibrant finish. The texture is creamy and also has a clean mineral quality which makes for a classy experience overall. Pairs nicely with seafood, especially salmon, trout, and shellfish. Note about temperature: this should be served chilled, but if it is too cold, the flavors are muted. We suggest you open it at its coldest and then leave it out, tasting it every once in a while to determine the temperature and flavor profile you like the best.

08 Terras di Xisto $9.70
The name of this wine comes from the unique soil of the area in Portugal's Alentejo region. The vines are planted in dirt which contains pulverized "schist," an metamorphic rock which absorbs heat, and passes along mineral and spice notes in the final results of the wine. This is light bodied but has quite a presence in the glass. A wonderful summer red - serve slightly chilled with dinner or as a opening wine for the evening.
