The Crusher Chardonnay sports a richness found in more expensive wines. Round flavors of toasty caramel, vanilla crème brûlée and melted butter marry nicely with notes of pear and grilled pineapple. While rich (but not a butter-bomb), this is a balanced wine with enough minerality and acidity to pair well with food.

The Crusher Rosé is dangerously easy drinking… soft strawberry, spice, rhubarb and raspberry. This is no wimpy thin Rosé. 13% Viognier adds to the depth, structure and complexity. A great patio sipper at a great price that will pair well with lighter fare.
A winemaker once told me about Sauvignon Blanc, “grapefruit should be left on the breakfast table,” and I agree. McNab Ridge Sauvignon Blanc is rich and round with flavors of honeydew, pineapple and creme with no mouth puckering grapefruit. In the glass this wine opens and softens into a crisp yet round mouth-feel. Just a great summer patio sipper value.
A lively light Sauvignon Blanc. Flavors of citrus and grapefruit with a touch of honeydew and vanilla. A bit high in acid for a patio sipper but it paired very well with a grilled chicken & vegetable pasta salad.
This rosé is thick and chewy. A man’s rosé, if you will. Made predominantly from Cabernet Franc and other Bordeaux varietals, this enjoyable offering sports flavors of strawberry, dark cherry and spice with just a hint of tannin to add to the full flavor. A fantastic value at $12-$14. Excellent with grilled salmon.
