WINE NOTES           Foxglove Chardonnay: Wines from the central coast of California are gaining more prominence but still are more inexpensive than their northern California counterparts. Because the vintners use new oak and the grapes come from a cooler region, this wine has a light creaminess and is balanced with flavors of tangerine and golden apple.

Ruston Merlot half-bottle: Merlot has gotten a ‘bad rap’ lately but is still the primary grape of many great Bordeaux and American blends. Great to use when you want big flavors of plum, blueberry, cocoa and white pepper without the muscle of a cabernet sauvignon. Half bottles are great for dinners for two or wine pairings for four. They allow for more variety in a meal and broaden the opportunity to try high end wines for less money.
