Wine
Selections January 2012
Urban Riesling 2010
Mosel Germany
This excellent lightly sweet
Riesling shows Mosel minerality,
just-right acidity and beautiful fruit (peach and pear) aromas &
flavors. From one of the Mosel's finest producers,
St Urban-Hof. Aperitif. Asian spicy cuisine. Roast chicken &
stuffing with apples & cranberries.
Stilton with Mango & Ginger.

TintoNegro
Malbec
2010
Mendoza, Argentina
A beautiful, well-made Malbec with huge
dark-berry aromas and sweet blackberry and plum flavors with notes of
chocolate upfront and bright fruit notes for a lift
in the back. Velvety mouth feel, soft tannin,easy finish. A great
match to a rare roast loin of beef. . . beef any style.Venison sausage.
Stews.
Grilled Portobellos. Aged Gouda
January
2012 Beer
Selection
Bell's Brewery, Michigan
Porter
A winter weather
favorite!
The Classic English Porter.
"Very dark, fairly full in body and packed with flavor. Intense, dry
tangy character of roasted barley."
RateBeer 98
overall. 99 style.
"...named for the train porters who were
its original servers and
consumers. Samuel Smith’s Old Brewery, Yorkshire’s oldest, reintroduced
authentic porter to the British beer scene in 1979 after an absence of
more than 50 years."
--from the website. Good match for seafood, smoked fish,
cajun dishes,
steaks, chocolate. Cahill's
Irish Cheddar with Porter.
Platinum Medal, World Champion
Porter
- World Beer Championships
“One of the world’s five best beers.”
- Michael
Jackson
