Canaletto Rose $8.99
Canaletto Rose (Italian)
Good textured weight and delicate sweet fruit, palate and moderate length.
Grapes: 100% Negroamaro.
Vineyard areas: Selected vineyards in the south of Apulia, in the Salento peninsular, in the province of Brindisi and Lecce.
Harvest: Vines are trained with “spalliera” and “alberello” method. Grapes are picked by hand by mid September.
Vinification: Grapes are de-stemmed. The crushed grapes are refrigerated at a temperature of 15°C and placed in a stainless steel tank. After 6-8 hours the “salasso” process is carried out: about the 50% of the total volume is taken out from the bottom of the tank, refrigerated at 10°C and decanted for 48 hours.
Fermentation: After racking selected yeast are added to initiate the alcoholic fermentation at a controlled temperature of 16-18°C for about 10-15 days.
After fermentation the juice is left on the fine lees for 2 months to improve the body and the suppleness of the wine. Malolactic fermentation is not carried out to keep freshness and acidity.
Alcohol: 12,5%
Winemakers notes: This wine has an intense bouquet of strawberry and raspberry, with light fragrances of citrus fruits. The palate is well-rounded, with a long finish. It is perfect as an aperitif or paired with fish dishes.
La Mura Rose $8.99
Grapes: 100% Nero d’Avola.
Vineyard area: The Nero d’Avola grapes are selected from prime vineyards in the province of Trapani, in south-western Sicily.
Harvest: The grapes are carefully picked by hand in mid September, to ensure the optimum level of acidity is retained, which is vital for this fresh, fruity style of wine.
The grapes are de-stemmed and soft-crushed. We use the salasso method of removing the juice from the bottom of the fermenter - this minimizes skin content, thereby keeping tannins as low as possible, while giving the wine its lovely pink color. Selected yeasts initiate the fermentation at about 18°C for around 10 days. We do not carry out the Malolactic fermentation in order to achieve maximum freshness in the finished wine.
Alcohol: 13%
Winemaker's notes:A rosé with real southern character, this wine is bursting with ripe fruit. The bouquet is of wild strawberries, and the palate is full of juicy red berry fruit flavor, making this an aperitif, which is hard to beat
Food Pairing:
Perfectly paired with seafood, salads and white meats.
Pink Knot $11.99
With a cool summer and a perfect dry, warm autumn, 2005 will possibly be
recognized as one of South Australia's greatest vintages. All varieties fully ripened with intense fruit
flavors and balanced natural acidity. The reds are vibrant in
color, with mature, textured tannins. The whites and rosés are fragrant and intensely varietal.
Bright cranberry-watermelon pink. Lifted raspberry and cherry aromas, highlighted with fragrant rose petals. Luscious flavours of ripe summer berries fill the mid-palate. This delicately proportioned Rosé, with a crisp refreshing finish, should be served chilled and enjoyed in its youth.

Tanqueray
Rangpur Gin IS HOT - Of
course we had it before anyone else in
Milford !!!!!
"Rangpur", a new product from Tanqueray Gin.
Tasting strongly of limes, Rangpur is not, as you might first assume, a lime-flavored Gin. Rangpur starts out life like any traditional gin – a grain-based neutral spirit distilled in a
"continuous
still".
It’s during the final distillation, which takes place in a copper pot still, that rangpur limes, ginger and bay leaves are added - along with the more traditional gin ingredients - Juniper berries and coriander. In contrast, a flavored gin, vodka or rum would have flavor added after the distillation, prior to bottling.
Filling a niche between the Super-premium Tanqueray no. Ten (introduced in 1999) and the classic Tanqueray London Dry Gin (introduced when your great, great, great grand-pappy was a lil’ baby), Tanqueray Rangpur is the lightest in the line at 41.3% abv (Tanqueray is 43.1%, while 10 weighs in at 47.3%).
The result of the innovative ingredients, as well as relatively low ABV bottling, makes for an incredibly smooth Gin. So smooth, that drinking it straight or on the rocks is highly recommended. Rangpur Gin will make a martini that will convert a vodka martini drinker.
While the bartenders at the club
are pushing Rangpur cocktails mixed with cranberry or ginger ale, neither did it for me - I preferred it straight.
Rangpur is now available
only in in select bars and liquor shops in
Connecticut, Maryland, Delaware and Washington DC.

SKYY
90 - Of
course we had it before
anyone else in
Milford !!!!!
Skyy
90
Skyy Vodka entered the market boldly claiming to abolish, or at the very least diminish, those horrific hangovers so often suffered by the people who enjoy their product. By producing a vodka that was nearly free of the headache and hangover inducing congeners, the by-products of distillation, Skyy made some waves in the vodka market. The company’s newest creation, Skyy 90 Vodka, has taken their quest for purity even further.
Though the Martini has been around since the late 1800s, the incorporation of Vodka into the cocktail didn’t take effect until several decades later. Since then the Martini has proven itself as a cultural phenomenon, first combining pure male sexuality with sophistication when Bond ordered his shaken, not stirred. More recently, the Martini has been embraced by women world wide with the advent and subsequent overkill of the Cosmopolitan. They come in a rainbow of colors and incorporate a cornucopia of exotic fruits and flavors, but the Martini is still a mainstay of the modern cocktail bar.
In conjunction with the evolution of the Vodka Martini itself, Skyy has endeavored to create a product that will be similarly transcendent in style, taste, and most notably, distillation technology.
After a decade’s worth of research and a considerable architectural undertaking, Skyy 90 is the first vodka to be produced from an innovative $25 million site. From this state of the art facility they have produced the first ever vodka to be distilled to 200 proof, thereby eliminating all of the unsavory by-products associated with the production of vodka. I know what you’re thinking : “Wow, 200 proof vodka! Where do I buy this fantastic elixir?”
Unfortunately for you (and my dear reader, me too), after the distillation Skyy 90 is then blended with water from the Sienna Mountains to a more reasonable 90 proof – equivocal to 45% alcohol by volume. Though you may have noted the additional 5% alcoholic volume compared with traditional Skyy vodka, rest assured that the smooth finish and clean taste that are the trademarks of Skyy Vodkas remain in tact. In short, it is a pure vodka at a fair price.
Skyy 90 boasts an unusual new bottle that reinforces the concepts of modernity and luxury, both of which are echoed in the shiny, new, internally computerized factory from which this vodka pours. Clearly marketed towards the discerning drinker, Skyy 90 is making a bold play to be the vodka of the Modern Martini.
In an attempt to be the crowning jewel in the evolution of the modern martini, Skyy 90 possesses a smooth taste followed by a clean finish. Some have compared it to classic brands such as Belvedere and Grey Goose. From the company it keeps and the utterly indulgent drinkability of the product itself, it seems that the monetary and scientific investments made in to Skyy 90 have paid off.
