  • Golfo 9 L.2007
    Golfo 9 L.2007 Winery: Golfo Region: Vino de Mesa Grapes: 31% Tempranillo, 26% Garnacha, 8% Merlot, 8% Bobal and 5.4% each of Petit Verdot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Graciano, Ca- bernet Franc and Tinta de Toro Winery: A joint venture between 9 winemakers, showcasing 9 regions and 9 varieties. This third bottling of Golfo incorporates wine from the following wineries: Cillar de Silos (Tempranillo, Ribera del Duero), Bodegas Ada (Garnacha, Navarra), Chateau Tours du Pas Saint-George (Merlot, St. Emilion), Bodegas Mustiguillo (Bobal, Utiel-Requena), Abadía Retuerta (Petit Verdot, Sardon del Duero), Viña Izadi (Graciano, Rioja), Bodegas Marqués de Griñón (Caber- net Sauvignon, Dominio de Valdepusa), Bodegas Bernabé Navarro (Cabernet Franc, Alicante), and Bodegas Frontaura (Tinta de Toro, Toro). Wine: A joint venture between 9 winemakers, showcasing 9 regions and 9 varieties. 50% of the wine is a blend in equal proportion of each of the wines while the other 50% of the wine is composed of a blend that is assembled and voted upon by all of the contributing winemakers. The voting occurs ~1 year after the vintage with the young wines already having seen ~12 months in oak barrels. Barrels were donated by Demptos, Radoux, Quercus and Cadus. Pro- ceeds of the sale of the wine will be contributed to the construction of a sub-terranean winery and support for a small community in Northern Kenya. The community has 300 fruit trees and 3600 grape vines planted of Syrah, Garnacha, Alicante and Moscatel. The wine is made all from fruit from the 2007 vintage but is not allowed to be labeled as a vintage wine given its Vino de Mesa designation.

An intense ink with a garnet rim, the wine opens with powerful aromatics of cassis, ripe boysenberry, and chaparral with hints of graphite, sage, fire -roasted meats and fresh brioche. With traces of tannin, the wine finishes with a lingering sweet licorice and a smooth acidity.Overall, this vintage of Papillon truly characterizes the theme —bold and massive yet also delicate and complex. 2016 POUILLY FUISSE CUVEE HORS CLASSE 50ml £6 125ml £14 175ml £20 750ml £80 LES MENETRIERES, DOMAINE FERRET BURGUNDY, CHARDONNAY 100%, ALCOHOL 13.5% Founded in 1840. A precise knowledge of the region’s most remarkable terroirs forms the basis of the parcel by parcel vinification for which the Domaine is renowned. When Louis Jadot acquired the 18-hectare property in 2008, its aim was to continue working in the tradition of excellence established by the Ferrets. Les Ménétrières is a southeast-facing vineyard less than 2.5 acres in size that borders the village of Fuissé. Superbly rich and generous, the wine has aromas of subtle cream blended with rich Chardonnay fruit, with honey notes. On the palate, ripe fruit, toast and quince paste punctuate a full-bodied, generous rich wine that is powerful, intense and vivid, with a long, haunting finish.

  • Food Products Such As Quince of a Modern Approach to Cooking
    01_AF_EDITORIAL.qxd 1/11/11 15:55 Página 1 T I D E If the Romantic travelers of the 19th century were to retrace their route through Spain today, would they still complain that it smells too much of garlic? Like it or not, Spain is one of the five main producers of garlic in the world, and in this issue we introduce you to the delights of a particular species, grown in the land of Don Quixote. Turrón is another thoroughly Spanish specialty; although other countries produce ersatz versions of it, the true, genuine article is certainly “made in Spain”. The turrón we know and love here, and eat particularly to celebrate Christmas and the New Year, is currently acquiring even more devotees as it conquers new horizons. A growing number of foreign visitors to Spain are showing an interest in gastronomic tourism. Many of our regions have a great deal to offer by way of wines and plenty of opportunities to sample them in situ and explore the local artistic and historical heritage in the process. One winegrowing region well worth making a detour to visit is Toro. Despite a name suggestive of another iconic symbol of Spain, Toro also stands for wines, and prestigious ones at that. As, indeed, does the Grandes Pagos de España association, whose member bodegueros (some of the biggest names in Spanish winegrowing) produce world-class estate wines. This first issue of 2012 also brings you a report on the selling power of design: we learn how certain brands (just a few examples—there are many more) achieved impressive growth in international sales by making design work for them.

  • It Is Our Mission to Find the Most Unique Wines from Around the World to Present to Our Guests
    It is our mission to find the most unique wines from around the world to present to our guests. We are proud to serve these wines by the bottle, glass and by a self-pour tap system that offers a selection of wines at our guests’ discretion. Our wine tap system allows our guests to try many different varietals of wine without purchasing an entire glass. We also focus our efforts on a wine list that surpasses the typical spectrum of quality and range. Grand Cru resides in a 1920s era building in the heart of Sarasota’s downtown dinning and shopping district. In addition to our unique selection of wines we also offer a varied selection of craft beers, meats and cheeses. We often host wine tastings and wine classes dedicated to specific regions of wine culture and style. We are also able to accommodate groups for tastings and events. Please inquire at [email protected] if you’d like to set up a tasting, event or if you’d like to set a reservation. The list below is specifically selected for their quality and character. In addition to the selection of beer and wine below we also offer beer and wine from our self-pour system. This self-pour system allows for our guests to sample wines and beer in fractions of an ounce. Offerings and pricing at our self-pour system is on the screens above the taps. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to talk to one of our team members. Thank you for choosing Grand Cru Wine Bar.
