Wine & Spirts: September 2010
White
Beringer Chardonnay, Sbragia Limited Release
California
$45
This limited release from two great Napa names is for adults only — strong, sleek stuff, creamy, full of fruit and spice. A lemon Danish with extra butter and sprinkle of cinnamon. For best friends only.
RED
Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf du Pape
France
$95
Look past the Bordeaux excitement to the Rhone, where 2007 was a great vintage and the Perrins did it up right. Lush and dark with black fruits, smoke, coffee and mystery. Drink now, but save some for 2020.
BRANDY
Xante
Sweden
$40
A shamelessly sexy blend of French brandy and Belgian pears bursting with fruit, vanilla and creamy texture. Best in chilled glasses.
