Touraine AOC, Domaine Octavie 2013 Loire, France
from a small, family owned domaine (dating back to 1885) that adheres to the TERRE VITIS approach which minimizes the use of artificial fertilizer and pesticides; 100% pure Sauvignon Blanc with a clean expression of minerality and fruit
Chardonnay, Copain 'Tous Ensemble' 2012 Anderson Valley, CA
inspired by his apprenticeships of winemaking in Northern Rhone, Wells Guthrie, sources cool climate Chardonnay grapes from Anderson Valley that produces a smooth, well-textured Chardonnay with gentle flavors of citrus and pear. In esscence, he captures texture in a bottle and it is sublime
Torrentés, Colomé 2012 Valle Calchaqui, Salta, Argentina
Argentina's native flagship grape variety sourced from 30 to 60 year old vines at high elevations; light and refreshing with tones of jasmine and orange blossoms that is balanced with a zippy minerality

Pinot Noir, Mohua 2012 Central Otago, New Zealand

Valdiguié, Broc Cellars 2013 Solano County Green Valley, CA
not to be confused with Gamay of Beaujolais, Valdiguié (Val-de-ghee), is actually from Languedoc. Discovered by winemaker Chris Brockway east of Napa county & nearly forgotten, he farms this errant site biodynamically, uses very little sulpher & utilizes whole-cluster carbonic maceration to highlight the true nature of this 'crazy-good' varietal & it's terrior. Light to medium body, big floral nose, with black currants & an earthy finish
Cabernet Sauvignon, Tangley Oaks 2011 Napa Valley, CA
sourced from a single lot of Cabernet and numbered on the bottle, this Cab has notes of blackberry and currants with dark chocolate and cassis; velvety texture and smooth tannins
Cabernet/Merlot/Malbec/Petit Verdot, Indaba 'Mosaic' 2013 Western Cape, S. Africa
lip-smacking Bordeaux blend that offers juicy flavors of black currant, ripe brambly fruit and dark chocolate with subtle spice notes

Sommelier Selections
The philosophy at AGR of sourcing high-quality products from local, artisanal purveyors is the same focus we share with our wine selections. As the sommelier, I take great care to seek out the 'farmer' winemaker, not the 'factory' winemaker. A staunch advocate of the best, quality-driven, value-priced small production wines I can find, I believe these wines offer more character of place' or 'terrior' & deliver something unique not found in mass production wines. After all, the beauty of wine is taking the journey!
made from the ancient grape variety Arneis (circa 1478!), known as the "little rascal"; fragrant & vibrant with notes of green apple, grapefruit, lemon, white flowers & minerals
White: Chardonnay, Edi Simcic 2010 (Goriska Brda, Slovenia)
Ever had a wine from Slovenia? You are missing out! A classic Chardonnay with notes of cream, peaches, citrus and honey which has a lush mouthfeel that typical California Chardonnay wine drinkers will identify with. Simcic ferments his wine in barrel then passes through stainless steel, which gives the wine elegance and grace. A renegade winemaker challenging the status quo. Chin! Chin!
Red: Pinot Noir, Peay 2012 (Sonoma Coast, CA)
Located just 4 miles from the Pacific Ocean, Peay Vineyards makes world-class Pinot Noir that is aromatic and elegant. Aromas of black tea, dried leaves with tart strawberry & rhubarb lead to a palate of elegant cherry fruit framed by fine, silky tannins
Red: Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Domaine de Châteaumar 'Secret de Nos Vignes' 2011 (Rhone, France)
From a family owned wine estate (3 generations) that practices a healthy respect to nature by farming chemical free, this limited production Rhone blend (Grenache, Syrah, Mouvedre) is rich and robust with powerful, yet sophisticated silky tannins
