Spain Navarra has been known for a long time for producing delicate while cheerful rose wines, mostly made from Grenache grapes, or its original name, Garnacha. In fact it is common in Northern Spain to go to a bar and just ask a Navarran wine, and automatically get served a glass of rose. Perhaps the main characteristic of Navarran roses is its deep, almost red, dark pink colour. This wine is not different and you will find a delicate aroma of white and blue flowers. Castillo de Eneriz has been making great wines for a long time, and although their strength are red wines, you will not be disappointed by this rose. The palate is fresh, and aromatic, perhaps a bit thin, but easy to drink. Have it on its own or with salads, white fish or chicken. 8POIN8 TS 8 Ch. Cavalier Marafince 2018, Provence. France Château Cavalier is an estate dedicated exclusively to the production of rosé in the heart of Provence on 132 hectares of contiguous vineyards in the foothills of the Massif des Maures in Vidauban, in the Var.

    Reservations Accepted | 10/1/2021 1 Welcome to Virginia’s First Urban Winery! What’s an Urban Winery, you ask? Well, we are. Take a look around, and you’ll see a pretty unique blend of concepts. First and foremost, you’ll see wine made here under our Mermaid label, highlighting the potential of Virginia’s grapes and wine production. Virginia has a rich history of grape growing and winemaking, and we’ve selected the best grapes we can get our hands on for our Mermaid Wines. We primarily work with fruit from our Charlottesville vineyard, with occasional sourcing from other locations if we see the opportunity to make something special. We’ve put together some really enjoyable wines for you to try – some classic, some fun, all delicious. Secondly, you’ll see wines from all around the world. Some you’ll recognize, others you might not. These selections lend to our wine bar-style atmosphere and really enrich the experience by offering a wide range of wines to be tried. They’re all available by the bottle, and most by the glass and flight as well, right alongside our Mermaid Wines. The staff can tell you all about any of them, so rest assured that you’ll never be drinking blind. These wines also rotate with the season, and there’s always something new to try. We have a full kitchen too, with a diverse menu that can carry you through lunch, brunch and dinner from the lightest snack to a full-on meal. With dishes that can be easily paired with a variety of our wines, make sure you try anything that catches your eye.

Now talking about wines, the Wine and sprit association of the Great Britain has sponsored the following definition of Wine ―Wine is an alcoholic beverage obtained from the fermentation of the juice of freshly gathered grapes. Fermentation is conducted in the district of origin according to local customs and traditions. To bear the name Wine, the product must come only from grapes. If made from other fruits; the fruit name must be put before the tern Wine eg. Blackberry Wine, Apricot Wine, Fig Wine. Only a small part of the world is Wine producing. This is because the grape will only provide juice of the quality required for conversion into consumable Wine where two climatic conditions prevail. 1. Sufficient sun-shine to ripen the grape 2. Winters that are moderate yet sufficiently cool to give the Wine a chance to rest and restore its strength for the growing and fruiting season.
