Desiree Chocolate Dessert Wine  375ml Rosenblum Cellars, California    $17.55

All curves and sinful indulgence, Désirée is a bit of a bad girl, but in all the right ways. Like a long, seductive kiss that never seems to end, the essence of Désirée is playful, enticing and fun. Conceived as a deliciously decadent Californian interpretation of the great Port wines, Désirée Chocolate Dessert Wine is an exotic blend of Zinfandel, along with two of Portugal’s classic grape varieties and an infusion of rich, opulent chocolate. An experience unto itself in the world of wine, Désirée is meant to be sipped and savored as a luscious liquid dessert (think heavenly chocolate mousse without the calories), or a companion alongside the most hedonistic after dinner treats– whatever they may be. Produced in Rosenblum Cellars’ signature robust, full-fruit style, using world-class fruit and handcrafted winemaking techniques, we invite you to discover Désirée’s many charms.

2004 Rudolf Muller Riesling Eiswein

Germany   375ml $18.99

Eiswein is a true specialty. It is made from very ripe, solidly frozen grapes which are hand-picked during severe frost, usually in the early morning hours, and immediately pressed while still frozen. The liquid in the grape is discarded as ice and all that remains is the true extract of the wine.

The 2004 Rudolf Muller Riesling Eiswein was made from Riesling grapes grown in the Hainfelder Ordensgut vineyards in the Pfalz region. 

The wine is light golden in color. Its pallet is rich and mouth-filling, with aromas of apricot, peach and honey. The wine has excellent acidity and a long finish.
Ideal with blue cheeses, fruit based desserts, such as fruit tarts or as an after-dinner drink instead of dessert.
