Wednesday Night Wine from the Duke
Cheers! from the Duke of Bourbon!

The Duke is the place for some of the finest wines in the known universe. But, unless you're the Sultan of Brunei, you usually drink something less expensive with dinner during the week (we certainly do). Here is a little reminder of some of the Duke's selections with an eye to the quality-for-price ratio.

Montinore Estate 1999 Chardonnay, Winemaker's Reserve

This is a full-bodied, elegantly styled Chardonnay that is great for sipping but will still stand up to the heartier fish and fowl meals. Originally $22.00 per bottle, this super wine is a super bargain at $6.99 per bottle or $39.00 per 6-pack case.

The Duke 2000 Merlot

For those of you without a firm grasp of the obvious, The Duke 2000 Merlot is the Duke's "house" Merlot. Vinified by Wine and Spirits magazine's 2002 Winemaker of the Year, Jim Clendenen, from Santa Barbara County fruit, it exhibits great qualities of the Merlot grape. The wine has a richness and a supple mouth feel that is surprising in a wine in this price range. We anticipated selling our Merlot for $16.00 per bottle, but we have been retailing it here in the store for $12.99. The Duke is reducing the already low price to just $9.99 per bottle. Buy 6 or more and receive an additional 5% discount.

Castello di Gabbiano 2001 Pinot Grigio Several customers have commented that they thought Gabbiano only made a Chianti. Well, they do make a sensational Chianti and they also make a Pinot Grigio that is just as tasty. The wine is light-bodied with a crisp texture best described as "refreshing" - perfect for sipping on the veranda or patio. Match it with a green salad and Italian bread with flaky crust and you have the perfect summer lunch. The price is just about as good as the wine at $4.99 per bottle (suggested retail is $12.00). Buy a case and the Duke will make the price a mere $47.88 (just $3.99 per bottle).

We still have some of the Joseph Phelps 2000 Pastiche available at $60.00 per 12-pack case, as well as the Lengs and Cooter 2002 The Victor, Australian Shiraz/Grenache, available at $16.99 per bottle by the 6-pack case or just $15.99 per bottle with the purchase of 12 or more. Robert Parker just gave this wine 90 points and called it a "great value"!
