2018 Quinta do Regueiro Trajadura / Alvarinho

Fresh 2018 just arrived!
2018 Quinta do Regueiro Trajadura / Alvarinho....$13.99
70% Trajadura and 30% Alvarinho
Intensely mineral profile, with floral and orange peel nuances. Reveals a great purity in the mouth, of refined but austere style, serious, strong, and very sophisticated.
Recognized as one the foremost producers of boutique vinho verde in Portugal, Quinta do Regueiro is fast becoming synonymous with top shelf avant garde white wines.
Since 1988, Quinta do Regueiro has been using old-school methods to produce some of the most prized Alvarinhos in Portugal. Having started with one single vineyard in the estate's "backyard," today, Quinta do Regueiro is producing approximately 40,000 bottles of Alvarinho (and blends). With a style recognized by few and admired by all, these wines are all about the details...these, begin in the vineyard.

Sidonia Espumante Special Cuvee Brut Nature

Sidonio de Sousa Espumante Special Cuvee Brut Nature...$16.99
The NV Espumante Special Cuvée Brut Nature is a blend of 30% Bical, 30% Maria Gomes and 40% Arinto (notably heavier on the Arinto here than on the regular NV bottling) that spent approximately 18 months on the lees. It comes in at 12% alcohol. Relatively big and toasty for a young sparkler, with an oxidative touch, this has fine grip on the tight finish. This Bruto Nature has no dosage, of course (that tends to be how it works here and in most of the region), and all that Arinto certainly helps with acidity. It shows good concentration, too. This is very nice and just a bit complex as well as enlivening. It is a fine value as well.

Sake classification levels are determined by the percentage the rice is milled before the brewing process. In general, the more you polish (or mill) the rice, the more aromatically expressive the sake becomes (the rice polishing rate expresses the amount remaining, so lower numbers translate to higher polishing).

What is JUNMAI DAIGINJO / DAIGINJO Sake
Daiginjo and Junmai Daiginjo class sakes must meet a rice polishing minimum of 50% (although many producers polish much further). This style is considered the ultimate luxury and is classically elegant and fragrant, with low levels of acidity and umami.

What is JUNMAI GINJO / GINJO Sake
Ginjo and Junmai Ginjo class sakes must meet a rice polishing minimum of 60% (although many producers polish much further). This style is generally a great balance of vibrant fruit and floral aromas with acidity and umami.

Beechers Cheddar FLAGSHIP RESERVE

Taste it today at Forsyth!

Beechers Cheddar
FLAGSHIP RESERVE

#1 Clothbound Cheddar in US
(American Cheese Society)
Flagship Reserve is a special version of our signature Flagship cheese. It is made only on days when the milk composition is just right. The last curds on the table from these makes are used to produce Flagship Reserve truckles as it allows for slightly lower moisture, higher salt content and thus a richer taste and texture while maintaining a clean, creamy finish.

In addition to using this special raw material, Flagship Reserve is traditionally cloth-bound and open-air aged. This method allows a 14 to 16% moisture loss during aging, concentrating the already rich flavor and producing a long finish

2016 Mas des Brunes Cuvee des Cigales

Mas des Brunes is now CERTIFIED ORGANIC (Ecocert)

• 55% Syrah
• 35% Grenache
• 10% Carignan
• Only 600 cases produced

“Cuvee des Cigales” is made from an exceptional parcel of old vine Syrah that produces tiny yields of 25 hl/ha. A small portion (10%) of the Syrah is aged in oak barrique (2+ yrs age) for 8 months before the final wine is blended. 

The like previous vintates 2016 “Cuvée des Cigales” is completely dominated by the black fruit flavors from the Syrah grapes. The nose is full of deep blackberry and plum aromas. In the mouth black cherry and blackberry flavors mix with the exotic and complex spice flavors that are contributed by the Carignan. This is a burly, muscular wine with a lot of character. While an ideal match for grilled meats and game, we also enjoy this wine with the more complex, spicier flavors of barbecue.
