Here's a sneak peek at what we have lined up for the evening:

Langmann Schilcher Sekt Blauer Wildbacher Rose is a fun bubbly from Austria. It has a bright pink color with a floral strawberry aroma. Powerful, minerally Mousseaux on the palate with berry fruit, strawberries and cassis, raspberries, with good balanced distinct acidity and expression of terroir. A characterful wine for all occasions! 

2012 Molnar Family Poseidon Vineyard Chardonnay has intense aromas with notes of tangerine peel, lemon oil and lemongrass. The signature aromatic creaminess of Molnar Family Chardonnay shows through, complemented by hints of graham cracker. The wine is bright, fresh and zippy in the mouth, with a flavor of lemon zest mixed with notes of creamy custard. A substantial wine, this Chardonnay closes with a long, toasty finish.

2009 Barra of Mendocino Petite Sirah is a wonderful expression of the grape and the area. This wine is made from 100% estate grown, hand-picked, certified organic grapes. It has lush floral aromas that meld with exotic gamey notes. The wine is rich and ripe on the palate and features black plum and chocolate flavors. The finish is long, with lush tannins that will complement any steak or hearty Italian fare.
