Beverage of the Week
Tongue Dancer Pratt Vine Hill Vineyard Chardonnay Russian River Valley 2022
We are very pleased to see the return of the Tongue Dancer Wines Pratt Vine Hill Chardonnay now in its third release. This wine impressed in its first release and it continues on this track. There is clearly something special about this vineyard and the fruit it creates.

Wine Reviews
Loosen Bros. Dr. L Riesling Mosel Valley 2022
Brilliant, light pale straw color. The nose is moderately intense, offering scents of green apple, pear, and mineral with supporting notes of citrus zest, kiwi, and honeysuckle. The palate echoes the nose delivering a ripe orchard fruits-driven core with flavors of white peach, apricot stone, chamomile, and sudachi. The finish is crisp. Medium-bodied and perfectly balanced with a vibrant texture. $12.49 – 4 Stars/90 points
Spirits Reviews
Galliano Espresso Coffee Liqueur
Brilliant, dark mahogany color, being nearly opaque. The nose is filled with scents of dark roasted espresso beans with supporting notes of dark chocolate, brown sugar, and vanilla bean. The palate echoes the nose adding a lovely anise note that marries perfectly with the dense espresso and mocha notes, finishing strong with mint and roasted nuts. Full-bodied and generous with espresso and supporting flavors in perfect harmony — ideal for cocktails. $24.99 – 4.5 Stars
Pallini Limoncello
Cloudy, looking akin to freshly squeezed lemon juice. The nose is filled with the scents of candied lemon zest with accents of cane sugar, much like a homemade lemonade, albeit more intense. The palate echoes the nose, delivering a bright, sweet lemon-driven core with a refreshing dose of lemon zest oils and just enough sugar to give it body and soften the tart flavors. Medium-bodied with vibrant lemon flavors broadened by a mildly viscous sugar syrup. $29.99 – 4 Stars
