Daves pick of the month is the Grand Cru International South African

Chenin Blanc. Dave recommends this unique white wine to any cus-

tomer that wants a refreshing, lightly floral mid-priced wine that they

can enjoy during the warm and humid days of summer.

Says Dave, I like the lemony scent and how fresh and crisp it is.! I love

drinking this Chenin Blanc while digging into steamed mussels or

shrimp

Called Steen when grown in South Africa, this graceful wine is light-

bodied with a pale straw colour. The fruity scented nose has hints of green apple and lemon with

a subtle floral bouquet rounding out the nose. On the palate the wine is delightfully refreshing.

$76 until June 30, 2011 Oak: 0 - Body: 2 - Sweetness: 2

Daves Wine Pairing Recommendation: Enjoy a glass of this lovely Chenin Blanc with Shrimp Fra

Diavolo.

Spotlight on Valpolicellatypes of Valpolicella wines: Valpolicella and

Amarone.

Our Valpolicella wines tend to be a little

lighter bodied than other red wines such as

Merlots and Cabernet Sauvignons. In fact,

our Valpolicella offerings tend to be very

easy drinking, fragrant and rich in flavours

of berries and red fruit. Our Cru Select

Valpolicella Ripassa made using the tradi-

tional Ripasso method of fermenting the

wine with dried grape skins

The Valley Wine Cellars Amarone offer-

ings provide a luxurious, velvety, heavy-

bodied red wine that is made traditionallyusing desiccated grapes and dried grape

skins.

Valpolicella, one of our most popular red

wines is commonly associated with the

Valpolicella viticultural zone in the Verona

province in Italy.

The Valpolicella area of Italy is quite hilly

and has a mild to cool continental climate

that is greatly influenced by Lake Garda to

the west and the Adriatic Sea to the south-

east. The vineyard soils in the Valpolicella

tend to be quite gravely and the best vine-

yards are situated at altitudes of 500 to

1500 feet.

Valpolicella wines are made from three

primary grape varietals: Corvina Veronese,Rondinella, and Molinara.
