Hangtime Wine Company is a local wine importer dedicated to searching out wines of high quality from a variety of wine regions, including Old and New World sources. All the wines we tasted were of distinct character, representing their grape varieties and regions with authentic flavors and true complexity.

2010 Sunday Mountain Sauvignon Blanc - $10.99
(Marlborough, New Zealand)

We really were struck by the quality-for-value that Sunday Mountain offers. It has the vivid aromas of gooseberry and guava that many New Zealand whites have, but milder, less intense flavors on the palate. A delicious complement to shellfish staples like shrimp and scallops.

2008 Mosel Riesling "Zum" - $11.99
(Mosel, Germany)

"Zum" is riesling at its best: zesty acidity married to refreshing fruit flavors of peach and apple, beautifully balanced. When riesling meets that balance between pure fruitiness and sweetness, it is a triumph of winemaking. Tastes a shade drier than it actually is, making a fine match for pork and poultry dishes.

2008 Le Sciare Primitivo "Due Palme" - $12.99
(Salento, Italy)

Primitivo, Italy's version of zinfandel, has an often earthier taste and higher acidity than its California counterpart. The Due Palme is sleeker and fresher than most primitivos we've tasted, with substantial flavors of black currant and dark cherry, finished with moderate tannins. Serve it with flavorful pasta dishes, with hearty tomato, mushroom and olive components.

2007 Casale Pozzuolo Rosso Della Porticcia - $21.99
(Montecucco, Italy)

Montecucco is a small, obscure region outside of world-famous Montalcino in Italy's Tuscany region. The sangiovese grape, the mainstay of Chianti and Brunello, resides here. It produces reds of amazing purity, with sour cherry and ripe raspberry scents and flavors. It's a little less dry than Chianti, and less muscular than Brunello, its appeal being its more forward, easy-drinking style. An elegant stand-in for Bordeaux and Burgundy with a fine roast lamb or beef.

2008 First Napa Chardonnay $14.99
2007 Frist Press Napa Cabernet Sauvignon $14.99
There is a lot of good wine in California right now that can't find a home due to the wear economy. The wineries' woes, however, are the consumers' opportunities. A lot of these fine wines are being channeled to special label wines at deeply discounted prices. First Press is one example: top quality Napa Valley wine that tastes like it cost twice its actual price (because it probably did!)

The Chardonnay exhibits all the bright melon and apple fruit of classic Napa Chardonnay, within a crisp, dry framework that lends a refreshing, cool character to the wine.


The Cabernet Sauvignon is a masterful blend of fruit flavors, with cassis, mocha, blackberry and a touch of oak in the mix. A savory, medium dry red of good balance and elegance.

2009 Vevi (Rueda, Spain) $12.99

All the best qualities of white wines from Rueda are apparent in Vevi: Clean, citric fruit, refreshing acidity and a palate-cleansing dryness. The crisp texture and lively flavors make it a natural for shellfish; try it with steamers or mussels.

2009 Colomia Las Libres Bonarda (Mendoza, Argentia) $9.99

Like Argentina's Italian immigrants, the bonarda grape transported from Piedmont to Argentina, adding to the flavor of the country's fine wines. Los Liebres has a smooth, dense texture, ripe raspberry fruitiness, and just enough acidity for structure. A fine alternative to barbera or sangiovese with pasta dishes, meat sauces, spicy sausages.

2009 Coppola "Votre Sante" Pinot Noir $14.99

The newest addition to the Coppola stable of wines, Votre Sante is a delicate, refined pinot noir with distinct plum and black cherry fruit flavors and mild tannins. It is meant to be an easy-drinking red, best served with casual fare, such as burgers, sandwiches, mild cheese. Raise a glass and say "a votre sante" to friends and enjoy!
