WINE NOTES
Naia Verdejo:
The Rueda region produces light, fresh and very crisp whites from the verdejo grape. Slightly herby but full of citrus lemon peel, this is a great wine for dishes that combine rich and light with hot and cold.

William Knuttel Cabernet Sauvignon: Some great wine makers are creating their own ‘retirement’ wines. Usually they are fairly inexpensive, from more interesting regions and are crafted by legends. Cabernet and lamb are meant to be together, especially with the dark, smoky jammy fruit of this wine with dried currants, coffee, white pepper and tons of blackberries.

Okouka Junmai Namazake: This is a rice wine from Japan -- unpasteurized and fresher. Sake is a great twist on a cocktail wine, with fresh flavors of herbs, cherry blossoms and banana.  It complements many finger foods and dips and adds a little mystery to a gathering.
