New arrivals at Vino LeFebvre


Just in time for summer time Vino LeFebvre has received wonderful, refreshing wines from Brandborg Vineyards in Umpqua Valley Oregon. Sue and Terry Brandborg work hands-on at their vineyards near Elkton, OR.
Their 92 point (WE) Gewuerztraminer has been a real hit here in the Indianaq market, followed by their delicious, dry riesling, Pinot Gris as well as Benchland and Love Puppets Pinot Noirs. Look for the Gewuerztraminer and riesling at Vine and Table's pick 24 for the month of July and also at the Grapevine Cottage over at Zionsville, IN.

Also from France we received a delicious, refreshing Sparkling new wine from Chateau Moncontour in the Loire Valley, France: Cremant de Loire - a fantastic "spritzy" refreshing sparkling wine made from 90% Cabernet Franc and 10% Chenin Blanc - you will find this wine for a great price here in Indiana.

Last....and a first for us: We brought in Armagnac from south western France:
Chateau Labaude, an old traditional Armagnac house that produces first class Armagnacs. We currently have the VSOP (Very old special pale) and XO (extra old) as well as vintages 1980, 1970, 1952 and 1947.

From the same Company we also added more to our Uruguayan portfolio:
Monte de Luz, Tannat-Cabernet Sauvignon 2007, Reserva - a fantastic wine that is very nicely done in balance ....stayed on my palate forever. Just in time to drink because Uruguay made it to the last 8 teams in the world cup. So go ahead, get your self a bottle, open it and enjoy the game against Ghana.
