Mark your calendar for Gustine Market's Winter Wine Tasting Event on Friday, February 22, 2013. This tasting has something for EVERYONE!
There will be more than eight different wines to sample, including the following three NEW WINES. At Gustine Market, we know that it is important to have a wide range AND good selection of wines in a variety of price categories. We have almost 200 types of wines to choose from, and we continue to bring in new wines every month for our customers. Here's a peak at some of the new ones:
Wairau River Sauvignon Blanc - This wine is light straw colored. This wine offers an intense lifted nose of ripe tropical fruits and citrus. Refined and elegant, it displays a finely textured palate with flavors of guava and stone fruit. Wonderfully expressive with a dry refreshing finish.

Charles Thomas Cote Du Rhone - From a 140+-acre estate near the well-known Cotes du Rhone village of Pont Saint Esprit emerges this juicy Cotes du Rhone, a blend of 50% Syrah, 40% Grenache and 10% Mourvedre. Well-made, with loads of berry fruit and a heady, meaty, peppery nose with a hint of Provencal herbs, the wine is fresh, lively, and best drunk over the next 2 years.

Sirius Bordeaux Rouge - This wine is a sustained garnet red with ruby and dark purple tints. Powerful from first sniff, it opens out to display a rich palate of red fruits, vanilla and spice with toasty notes. The meaty, beautifully round attack gives way to a superbly textured palate followed by an aftertaste which is just begging to unfold. The ripe tannins afford delicious balance and fine length without astringency to this blend.
