arugula salad

strawberry white balsamic vin| bugey strawberries | pink peppercorn pecans | parmesan tuille | 7.95

Amestoi Txakoli     Basque Country, Spain 9.50

txakoli is made most often from a grape named hondarribi zurri.  leave it to the basque to make a slightly effervescent rose wine that is tart and full of lime.  everyone should try this once.


crispy carolina catfish

red bliss potato salad | wilted arugula | bacon aioli | pickled jalapeños | 9.95

Clos del Pinell   Garnatxa Blanca    Spain 7.00

spain has done it again.  Big ripe fruit and melon on the nose.  Mildly viscous on the palate with that same melon and a touch of nice tart acid.

pei mussels

leeks | carrots | mustard greens | cilantro |

lime-ginger aioli | 8.95

D’Arenberg Roussanne   McLaren Vale, Australia 6.00

nothing like some petrol and toast on the nose to get your fired up (no pun intended). the fact that this wine may be slightly past its prime plays to its strengths and can be enjoyed by chard and rhone drinkers alike.

flatbread

swiss chard | smoked mushroom duxelle | gruyere | lemon syrup | basil | 8.95

Montalto Rosso   Sicily, Italy 7.50

nero d’avola with some cabernet sauvignon mixed in. big dark fruit and a little inky. almost like you can taste the volcanic soil from the island!

farmhand foods spicy italian sausage

currant pain perdu | strawberry basil relish | porcini cream | basil oil | 9.95

Domaine des Rozets    Coteaux du Trincastin   France 6.50

southern french but not too juicy.  nice balance. it has all the elements you would expect but none of them too overpowering.

six plates cheese plate

sliced apple | honey | fruit compote | mixed nuts | crostini

10.95

Yellow and Blue Monastrell  Jumilla, Spain 7.00

mourvedre from an hour south of valenciano oak I repeat, no oak pure expression and a really cool environmentally friendly package.  Great drinking wine, great food wine, great wine period.
