Scratch Bar

Sparkling red from Northeastern Italy. Fun, playful and sexy. If this wine were a woman, she’d be Emma Stone.

Filtered. Still delicious.

High acidity. Grassy aroma, much more vegetal than it's South African counterpart on our list. Notes of apple, citrus, lemongrass on the palate.

A rare grape for the region (Willamette, OR) , this food friendly Riesling sits off-dry, with tangy citrus and orange notes. With surprising acidity for an American Riesling, pair with salmon salad, squid in a box or raw oysters.

This is not your daughter’s Chardonnay. The long, summer days, followed by cool nights impart distinctive flavors of lemon and honeydew melon, with deep complex aromas. Grown on vines dating back to 1885, aged in American and French oak Game Changer.

This Merlot/Cabernet Sauvignon/ Petite Syrah blend bursts with red fruits. Strawberry, dark cherry and cranberry the gang’s all here. Medium body, light oak an incredible bargain. Enjoy.

Classic Tempranillo. Bright cherry and just a touch of black pepper. Soft and warm.

VERY Burgundian in style; bigger in body, with a darker fruit concentrate than its California counterparts. Dark cherry, strawberry and cedar seduce the palate, with vanilla and violet on the nose. Versatile and delightful.

Complex, yet delicate. Full bodied, with black cherry, coffee, black pepper and mixed spices on the nose and tongue. Well balanced acidity rounds out a great wine from the Russian River Valley.

Italy's Pinot-Killer. Take a handful of strawberries, a handful of black pepper, throw them in a glass and BAM! Get punched in the mouth. Thin and elegant with soft tannins, this personal favorite of Joe is a must try for Pinot lovers and adventurers alike.

Literally translated to “The Great Bitter,” this rich and dry red is made from grapes dried on large straw mats under the hot Italian sun. The result is a huuuugely full bodied wine, with a heavy dried fruit concentrate. Prunes, fig, black currants and tobacco dominate the palate. Deep, seductive dried cherry notes dominate the bouquet. The first glass is incredible. The second changes your life. The third makes you forget your address and the names of your loved ones. The fourth glass will make you break down and sob like Julianne Moore.
