Finishes with a long crayon, cigar box and pepper accented fade. A dead ringer for a mature Left Bank claret. Impressive!" Beverage Testing Institute

	Tomasello Winery Outer Coastal Plain Villard Noir 2007 A wonderful vintage of Villard Noir grown in our Outer Coastal Plain vineyard. Villard Noir is French hybrid variety with one of its parents being Pinot Noir. The wine is similar to Pinot Noir in character but has more depth and complexity. Cherry is evident from aroma to finish.
	Tomasello Winery Atlantic County Pinot Noir 2008 (soon to be released) Pinot Noir is the red grape of France's Burgundy region, responsible for some of the best and most expensive wines in this area. This soft red wine is great with food.
	Outer Coastal Plain Sangiovese-Shiraz 2007 The 2007 Outer Coastal Plain Sangiovese-Shiraz is 70% Sangiovese and 30% Shiraz, both estate-grown in our vineyard. Each grape was fermented separately and then married upon the completion of fermentation. The wine was then aged in 2nd year American oak for a period of 11 months. The soft fruit character of the Sangiovese is balanced by the full and intense character of the Shiraz, resulting in a very pleasant red with subtle fruit character. We suggest pairing this with lighter meats and cheeses.
	Tomasello Winery Atlantic County Shiraz 2006 One of our newer plantings, Shiraz (also know as Syrah) is a well known variety found in France's Rhone wine region and in Australia, but it is loving the South Jersey climate as well. Our biggest red made with whole berry fermentation and stems, then a soft champagne pressing and aged in new American Oak casks. Great with a juicy sirloin with portabello mushrooms.
	Outer Coastal Plain Chambourcin 2007 A grape that thrives in our climate and soil, Chambourcin has been steadily gaining popularity with wine drinkers. We have been very successful growing this variety, and our Chambourcin wine has won numerous awards including the New Jersey Governors Cup. Chambourcin is a French Hybrid made in a fruity Beaujolais style. This lot was finished in American Oak for one year. It compliments cheese, lighter red meats, Caesar salad and pasta marinara sauce.
	Tomasello Winery American Merlot (non-vintage) -750ml The Tomasello American Merlot is made from 95% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. It is a soft dry red with hints of berry and olive in the nose. Medium body with a clean finish supported by soft tannins. Excellent food wine as it is very well balanced. My favorite food with the Merlot is pasta puttanesca.
	Tomasello Cape May Red A versatile dry red made with a combination of DeChaunac, Villard Noir, and Landot Noir grapes. This light red table wine is sure to be a hit at a party or with your favorite pasta dish. Sold in 1.5L magnums only.
	Tomasello Winery American Claret (non-vintage) -750ml The Tomasello American Claret is a semi-dry red wine made from a blend of French hybrid grapes; specifically, Landot Noir and DeChaunac grapes. Slightly fruit in character and with about 3% residual sugar. This wine is perfect for the wine drinker who is looking for an alternative to heavy dry reds.
	Tomasello American Ranier Red (non-vintage) -750ml Tomasello Ranier Red is a moderately sweet red wine with the taste of freshly picked grapes. It is very fruity and intense in its grape character and is made primarily from the Native American grape Concord. With a dessert sweetness level, it is perfect with walnuts and stilton cheese. Made every year at the Winery for over 70 years, it enjoys a very loyal following. For the sweeter palette, it is the most intense of the Ranier wines.
