Churchill's Estates Douro 2011 - $17.99
$16.19 with Case Discount
*Rated 93 points (Wine Spectator)*
Region/Country: Douro, Portugal
Issue: May 2014
"A meaty, rich, and brooding red, offering plenty of mocha notes to the dark plum, dried blackberry & baker's chocolate flavors. Presents hint of smoked paprika mid-palate and features a finish filled with restrained tannins. Drink now through 2020. 750 cases imported." – KM
Our sister store, Milk & Honey of Tiverton, suggests pairing with a creamy, flavorful blue cheese. Consider the double-cream Saint Agur from France, which is especially delicious on a thick, juicy burger!

Pedroncelli Bench Vineyards Merlot 2009 - $9.99
$8.99 with Case Discount
Sonoma County, California
"Bench Vineyards, the name chosen for this wine, describes the natural terraces that flank the Dry Creek Valley and rise slowly into the steep hills. The sloped topography and rocky residual soils allow for unique growing conditions that bring out the best in our Merlot. Bouquet of black cherry, warm spice & rich plum. Blackberry, red currant, & tea notes highlight the flavor. The subtle toasty oak complements the rich fruitiness in the mouth. Lush and full bodied, with soft tannins and a lasting finish."
Milk & Honey recommends serving this wine with Cotswold Double-Gloucester with Onion and Chive, a firm, savory cheese, sliced thick and melted on a medium-rare burger.
