Bricco Riella
Moscato D'Asti
$11.99
"Moscato d' Asti d.o.c.g. is moderately sweet and bears the musky scent that is typical of its grape of origin. It is delicate and intense at the same time. It has a straw-yellow color, a fragrant bouquet and a delicately sweet-scented taste. The alcoholic content is low."
Excellent Moscato!

"This is a good buy for less than $10. The zinfandel comes on strong. But it isn't strong like so many zinfandels these days. The flavors of this wine are fresh and clean, making it a very good everyday wine for these cooler fall evenings. "
Fun, under $10!

Black Noble
Dessert Wine
$38.67
It certainly bears a strong resemblance to the PX wines of the Jerez region of Spain. The bouquet carries treacle and toffee notes, with hints of Christmas cake, and the sweetness of the palate is balanced by lifted acidity. Highly Recommended
Fabulous sweet dessert!

Veuve Cliquot's Yellow City Traveler Gift Set is my favorite of the season. A perfect gift for any special lady, the 750ml bottle of Cliquot is paired with matching flutes. The lining supporting the bottle and glasses is removed and leaves you with a very classy travel bag. Clicquot's signature brut is loved the world over for its crisp, full flavors, consistent quality and celebratory yellow label. The classically-styled, dry Champagne is a blend of two-thirds black grapes (Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier) for body, balanced by one-third white grapes (Chardonnay) for elegance.
You must stop in and see this one for yourself! Our quantities are limited, please call ahead if you would like to pre-pay and have us hold your gift pack for pick up! Call us at the State Street Exchange at 317-462-3933.

Halloween provided a tastier Treat than ever at Carnegies this year! Chef Ian provided the fabulous food and Chris Keller made the wine! We tasted a several of these California delights. We led off with the Chardonnay and then tried the Pinot Noir. The Savignon Blanc was followed by the Syrah Noir, my particular favorite. The final taste of the night was the full bodied, delicious Tarantula.
The Reporter's writer Noelle Steele was there providing the piano music which set the mood for this great evening. She interviewed Chris and wrote an article for the paper. The only thing she left out is that these great wines can only be found in our area at the State Street Exchange!

I once had a conversation with that man of mine that went something like this:
He said, "I still own my own business and I'm still my own boss."
I said, "Those are 2 of my favorite sentences to come out of a man's mouth."
Then he said, "And, I still make a lot of money."
and, I said, "That is my 3rd favorite sentence to come out of a man's mouth.
Now that you know how shallow I truly am, let me just say......I used to believe that all the hype surrounding the newest vintage of "Beaujolais Noveau" was just like all of the 'Congressional BAIL-OUT' hype......... we just have to have it NOW!!
And, after it was all said and done, all we were left with was a good idea in theory but....a theory that just doesn't work.
Beaujolais Noveau, in my mind, was the same this as this bail out business.
However, after tasting the 2008 vintage at our weekly wine tasting at Greenfield Liquors, I have decided that theories can indeed become fact and that symbolism can turn into substance.
Ladies and beer drinkers, I now give you...
Ladies and beer drinkers, I now give you...
Georges Duboeuf's 2008 Beaujolais Nouveau
Beaujolais is a small region in France that is approximately 34 miles long from top to bottom and 7-9 miles wide (kind of like I was when I was pregnant). There are nearly 4,000 grape growers in the region who grow one grape and one grape only.....GAMAY!
So as not to bore all 3 of you out there about how George Duboeuf brought this rather drab, lifeless, red table wine to the prominence it hails today, I'll just present to you a few "Fun Facts.
Beaujolais is fermented for just a few weeks and is fruity, light, refreshing wine that should be chilled on a warm spring day.
Beaujolais is meant to be drunk young and not with a young drunk.
Beaujolais is always released the third Thursday of November regardless of the start of the harvest.
Now,to be honest with all my 'peeps' out there, I am not a fan of Beaujolais. I was introduced to it during a two date stint with a rather exotic man who worked in a wine store.

Now,to be honest with all my 'peeps' out there, I am not a fan of Beaujolais. I was introduced to it during a two date stint with a rather exotic man who worked in a wine store.
He made me Hummus and opened a bottle of Beaujolais. I made him obsolete and kept opening wine.
And now, with the 2008 vintage, I am forced to look in the relationship rearview mirror to recall what is was, exactly, that drove me away from Beaujolais because the 2008 vintage was a delight to taste.
The palette presented, in true Gamay style, a ton of ripe fruit, almost like melted black cherry Jell-O. The wine was virtually void of any type of tannins so the wine appeared sweet, but openly fresh and enjoyable. And, enjoy it we did!
Beaujolais is meant to be enjoyed NOW. It can be trendy by day and drank by night (and equally so if the reverse were optioned). And, if you feel like you're in a real 'wine rut' with the upcoming holidays presenting themselves, give this little wine a try.
It retails for about $16.39 at State Street Exchange and we only have a few cases to share with all of Greenfield.
As a side bar, we will be tasting wine on Monday and Tuesday, (Nov. 24-25), from 5:00 - 8:00 pm to help you pair just the right wines with your relatives. We will also be serving some light cheeses and if I'm feeling gigi, maybe even a Godiva truffle or two.
Stop in to pick up all of your holiday liquor needs. I mean, after all, alcohol, no matter what the form, is like a great Terry Cloth Robe.....you can always own 3 or 4 but still feel the need for more.
