Featured Wines:
•Tapada Nova
One of the fun aspects of pet-nats is that they are usually made from non-traditional Champagne grapes. So, it is with this Tapada Nova bottling from Quinta das Arcas. Their winemaking team of Fernando Machado and Henrique Lopez chose to make a 50/50 blend from the 2021 harvest from two indigenous Portuguese white grapes – Azal and Arinto. Both of these varietals are late ripeners and are noted for their zippy acidity and citrus-tinged green apple flavor profile.
•Arca Nova Loureiro
This Green Wine harmonizes perfectly with several dishes such as fish, grilled poultry Asian food or a salad fresh. It is perfect for a summer appetizer.
Suggestion: Baked Chicken with Sweet Potatoes and Apple accompanied with Arca Nova Loureiro Vinho Verde

•Abad Dom Bueno Godello
Abad Dom Bueno Godello is an unoaked, dry white from Bierzo, north-west Spain, made from the fashionable local Godello grape, grown on granite soils. A tangy wine, exploding with mandarin and citrus rind flavours.
•Ochoa Calendas Tempranillo
Raspberries and red currant with lavender and violets on the nose. These flavors transfer into the mouth with medium firm tannins and medium-plus acidity and a good concentration and balance on the finish.
•Kompassus
Deep purple color with mature dark fruits and mild aromas of dried spices. Elegant and medium-bodied. Well-balanced structure with firm tannins and a smooth long finish. A lighter style wine with lots of depth.
•Tobelos Roija
Cherry red color with ruby rims. Intense nose with aromas of red and black fruit dotted with spicy notes of cinnamon, cocoa, and scrub bush. Balanced from start to finish with friendly tannins, integrated acidity, and long persistence. Very round, fresh, and fruity.
•Delgado Manzanilla
The Palomino grapes are dried before vinification, starting with a much higher concentration of sugar. The wine is then fortified and aged in the solera in the same way as an Oloroso Sherry.
Tasting notes: Dark mahogany color with sweet flavors of rasins, caramel and spices. Full-bodied and smooth with lingering flavors of toasted walnut and dried fruits in the finish.
