SUMMER WINES
Summer calls for an entirely different style of wine than the rest of the year. Instead of the heavy,
powerful wines that accompany the cuisine of cooler weather, try something light and refreshing.
This does not preclude red wines either. We’ve found several that quaff a thirst and match lighter
foods too.
Summertime is also a great time of the year to experiment. Throw off the Cabernet and Chardonnay
shackles. Wine lovers of the world unite! You have nothing to lose but ponderous over-oaked white
wine. By golly, try a cool refreshing Riesling. How about a crisp Sauvignon Blanc from California or
New Zealand? Amaze your friends with a dry Rosé. (See page 4). There are so many styles of wine
out there it seems a shame to concentrate on one or two types, no matter how delicious they are.
Green’s has selected 16 wines made from 11 different grape varieties made to enjoy during the hot
weather. All were picked for their ability to refresh and entertain.
WHITE WINES
Chateau de
Fontenille Entre
Deux Mers
Blanc-2015
Green’s Cash Sale Price:
$9.99
*National Average Retail
Price: $12.00
“Chateau de Fontenille Entre Deux Mers Blanc 2015 is made
with a blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Muscadelle and
Sauvignon Gris…A pale yellow wine with pleasing citrus and
stone-fruit aromas on the nose, medium weight on the palate,
nicely balanced with good lemon flavors, a hint of pepper and
a good length.”
Winemaker’s Notes
Corvidae Mirth
Chardonnay-2014
Green’s Cash Sale Price: $9.99
*National Average Retail Price:
$12.00
“The Mirth is quintessential
Chardonnay exhibiting bright
tropical notes and excellent
purity of flavor and balance
unencumbered by oak flavor. The wine is fermented and
cellared in stainless steel to preserve its freshness and varietal
character. Pair this refreshing Chardonnay with a chanterelle
herb frittata, lemon roasted chicken, or a mango avocado and
smoked salmon salad.”
Winemaker’s Notes

Saint Cosme - Little
James’ Basket Press
White-2015
“A blend of Viognier and Sauvignon
Blanc that’s aged all in tank. Showing
the Viognier nicely, with plenty of
apricot, citrus and marmalade notes,
this soft, supple and decidedly delicious white should be
purchased by the case as a mid-week drinker.”
Winemaker’s Notes
Torres Vina Sol-2014
“In the lively, brilliant freshness of
its youth, the wine expresses fresh
floral aromas, like orange blossom,
with strong fruit undertones, such
as apple and banana, as well as
intriguing exotic notes of lychee.
Light and silky on the palate with
delicate acidity and wonderful length.”
Winemaker’s Notes
Chateau Ste.
Michelle
Chardonnay-2014
Joel Gott Oregon
Pinot Gris-2014
$16.00
“The 2014 Joel Gott Pinot Gris
has white peach aromas with floral
notes. On the palate, the wine is balanced, opening with bright
acidity and refreshing Meyer lemon citrus flavors, followed by a
juicy mid-palate, and a long finish.”
Winemaker’s Notes
Kenwood Sauvignon
Blanc-2014
*National Average Retail Price: $12.00
“First the tropical shows itself: lusty with
pineapple and mango. Summer melons
follow in juicy, fragrant glory. Lemon
blossoms, creamy lime and crisp acidity
and tone and lively edge.”
Rated 92 Points-The Tasting Panel
$7.99
Price: $10.00
“On the lighter side, with
lemon curd and spice flavors on a sleek frame, picking up fresh
green fig notes as the finish lingers.”

Chateau Ste.
Michelle
Riesling-2014
$10.00
“This wine is immediate in its appeal
with aromas of lime leaf, flowers and peach. It drinks off dry with
a zing of acidity that beautifully frames the full-fruit flavors. Best
Buy” Rated 89 Points-Wine Enthusiast
RED WINES
Brancott Marlborough
Sauvignon Blanc-2015
“White fragrant and juicy, with apple
blossom, lime zest and chive blossom notes

lemon and grapefruit flavors.”

of tannins. Best Buy.”
Rated 91 Points-Wine Enthusiast
Dona Paula Black
Edition Red Blend-2013
$13.00
“A fresh and leaner style with black
currants and blueberries. Full-bodied,
minerally and crisp. A blend of Malbec,
Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot.”
Angove Shiraz Family
Crest-2014
$13.00
“A brambly array of mixed summer
berry aromas, a little licorice, really
pure and vibrant. The palate has a
smooth wrap of sweet dark plum
and blackberry fruit flavor, some
redder nuances too, bright tannins, drink now.”
Rated 90 Points-James Suckling
Hacienda Araucano
Carmenere Reserva-2013
Greg Norman
Estates Limestone
Coast Cabernet/
Merlot-2012
$15.00
“Supple and inviting, with cherry flavors at the core and hints of
herb around the edges, persisting harmoniously on the precise
finish…Top Value Pick”
“Fresh and intense aromas of prune,
white pepper, notes of the ‘garrigue’
such as rosemary and thyme, and hints
of eucalyptus predominate. Mouth:
The mid-palate is round with a dense
tannic structure. The aromatic length is
dominated by notes of red fruits which
adds contrast and complexity to this interesting wine.”
Winemaker’s Notes
Chateau St. Jean
Merlot
California-2012
3 Ball California
Zinfandel-2012
“On the nose, bright boysenberry and
raspberry fruit with dusty rose and hints of
herb and spice. On the palate, rich berry fruit,
mineral and spice with hints of coco. Elegant
tannins build the mid palate and trail into a
long leathery finish laced with toasted oak.
Pair with rich stews, grilled meats and a classic
accompaniment to BBQ ribs and tomato based
sauces.”
Winemaker’s Notes
Price: $13.00
“Ripe fruit aromas of fresh
berries, red plum and cherry are
robust and lead to rich flavors
of fresh berry pie, milk chocolate and notes of black tea on
the palate. The wine is well structured with a juicy mouth-feel,
smooth tannins and a lasting finish.”

-THE ROSÉ EXPERTS
THE 2015 VINTAGE HAS ARRIVED!
“Few wines are as easy-drinking, refreshing or as versatile as rosé. With the warmer days of summer…
it is time to start stocking up on these flavorful sippers, which are best served well-chilled to allow
their subtle fruit and spice flavors to shine through. The best are also zesty enough to match well
with lighter fare, such as grilled poultry or seafood.”
The Wine Spectator
“There’s nothing better on a sultry day than a wonderful bottle of dry rosé.”
Robert Parker
ROSÉ SEASON HAS BEGUN!
Over a decade ago, before Rosé became popular again,
had introduced our customers
to the joys of drinking dry Rosé. It is the perfect summertime wine. Cool and refreshing, and usually
moderately priced, Rosé is meant to be consumed without pretense. It is “just” a fun wine that is
delicious by itself or with almost any food.
Doug Werner-Green’s Wine Buyer
DOMESTIC
Wolffer Estate ‘Summer
in a Bottle’ Rosé -2015
The color of sunshine, this wine gives
juicy aromas of summer fruit—ripe
peach, apricot and cantaloupe—
along with honeysuckle and freshly
cut hay. The mouth-feel is beautifully
balanced. After the ripe lush fruit,
including those on the nose plus
lychee, come wonderful layers of acidity, yeasty lees notes
and mouth-filling texture.”
Elizabeth Spencer Mendocino
Rosé of Grenache-2015
Green’s Cash Price: $15.99
“Beautiful pink color with a brilliant clarity. This wine is a
delight to pour and share. Refreshing, bright, and complex.
The nose is bold with crushed strawberry, fresh red raspberry
and lingering aromas of citrus zest and fresh cut flowers.
Excellent acidity that cuts through the red grapefruit and
tropical flavors and lends a long, clean finish. Perfect alone,
with plenty of weight to pair compellingly with a variety of
foods. The finish is bright and full of lingering minerality.”

garrigue and soil intensity can be found throughout this dry
wine.”
Cuvee Royale
Tavel Rosé-2015
$14.99
The terroir of the vineyard
of this wine is entirely
“galéts roules,” the same
large smooth pebbles
found in Chateauneuf-du-Pape. These stones reflect the
heat toward the fruit during the day, and retain, and slowly
release, heat throughout the night. The grapes get unusually
ripe here. Made from Grenache (50%), Clairette (11%),
Cinsault (20%), Picpoul and Bourboulenc (10%) , Carignan
and Syrah (9%), this Tavel is rich and powerful. Possesses
a deep pink color and ripe cherries on the bouquet, this
dry, rich, ripe red fruit flavored wine is one of the most
concentrated Rosés we carry. If Chateauneuf-du-Pape
made a Rosé, this is what it would taste like.

Victor Costieres de Nimes Rosé-2015
What a beautiful Rosé! It’s hard for me to select a favorite
of this group as I liked them all, but if I had to point out
just one it would be this wine. It’s got everything; an elegant
light to medium pink color, a red fruit and watermelon-like
aroma, and a flavor that is the perfect balance between
acidity and fruit. It is from Costieres de Nimes, just west of
Provence in the southern Rhone Valley.

Domaine Fazi Rosé Ile de Beaute-201
This is the fourth year we’ve been able to source this
wine and it has become one of our customers’ favorite
Rosés. Made from four grape varieties, 35% Sciaccarellu,
30% Merlot, 25% Grenache, and 10% Cinsault, the major
component, Sciaccarellu, is a native grape variety of the
island. Close in appearance to the Pinot Noir grape, the
wine from this grape displays an aroma similar to Pinot as
well.
“Oeil de Perdrix” in color (that’s fancy French talk for very
pale Rosé), indeed it has a light tint of bronze blended with

discreet, with lightly spiced notes. The flavor is all about
freshness and crispness.

Rosé -2015
Green’s Cash Sale
Price: $13.99
“Made of 100%
Pinot Noir, Villa
Wolf Rose has a
lovely pale salmon
color with bright strawberry and plum aromas. The fruit is
very forward, but has a delicate gentleness that keeps the
wine in balance. It is dry, but there is a juicy blast of fruit on
the palate with good persistence on the finish. Enjoy this
with Asian cuisine, chicken salad, or grilled fish.”

“Broadbent’s popular wine, made

with a touch of sweet fruit, as it
should be, with watermelon, wild
strawberry and oregano. Like a
great dry soda-with a kick.”

Château Du Barry
Bordeaux Rouge-2012
“A wonderful blend of 80% Merlot and
20% Cabernet Sauvignon…Deep violet
in color with flavors of dark cherries and
plums. The spice is right, in balance with
the fruit and toasty oak. The elegant
tannins give the finish a gratifying end
to the harmony of fruits and wood.”

Château Lestage
Chevillon Medoc-2010
“Elegant black fruits, delicate oak. Rich,

fruit and firm, muscular tannins.”

Blanche Médoc-2010
“Aromas of plums and bitter chocolate
follow through to a full body, with
chewy tannins and a medium toasted
oak aftertaste. Lots of wood now but
shows excellent structure.”
Château Le Baron de
Malleret HautMédoc-2010
“This fruit-forward, medium to fullbodied wine overachieves as a Cru
Bourgeois. It is a blend of 46% Merlot,
37% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest
is Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and
a dollop of Carmenere. It offers up blue fruits and raspberry
along with a floral note, and has medium body as well as a nicely
textured mouth-feel.”

La Fleur de Haut
Bages Liberal
Pauillac-2012
“The second wine of Haut-Bages
Liberal and a blend of 80%
Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot. Generally
the grapes come from younger vines, 15 years old rather than 30
years old, and the wine spends about a year in barrel. Fresher
and lighter in style, it still has the classic hallmarks of Pauillac
and Haut-Bages Liberal: elegance, ripeness and fine tannins.”

seafood really well because the natural acid counterbalances
the saltiness perfectly. Green melons and lemon and lime

Jumilla 2013-Spain
“Powerful blackberry aromas

This Monastrell-Syrah blend
