edition<o:p></o:p></span></h2> <p>Eureka! We found them. The selection immediately below does the unimaginable. It marries high quality with affordable pricing for one of the best combos we know in this freaking fabulous industry. Our finds are luscious and table-worthy; they also have the Acme stamp of approval. In case that stamp is a little vague, allow us to explain. Four palates + four  yes votes = wine for Acme Fine Wines shelves. And, when a unanimous vote is oh so close, timing is everything. With the economy playing a bit of a game with our decision-making these days, we have chosen to highlight mainly under $35 bottles. There will be the occasional top shelf wine towards the bottom if you aren t afraid to glance ahead.</p> <p><strong>PHOENIX RANCH, VIOGNIER, NAPA VALLEY 2006 $18</strong> (12 bottle price with discount $205.20)<br> When Richard Phoenix does something he is known for doing it with both feet, arms and torso just to make sure it is perfect. His Viognier from the family property located a stone s throw from the Silverado Country Club is exactly how we like to see that varietal behaving. The fruit isn t ultra-ripe so the aromatics aren t ultra-overwhelming! The bouquet of apricot, peach and pear is right in line with the great Viognier wines of the Rhone that are dry and vibrant without being over the top perfumey. Nicely done, Richard---we like your style. Now how come only 50 cases were made?</p> <p><strong>BOX CAR, PINOT NOIR, SONOMA COAST 2008 $28</strong> (12 bottle price with discount $319.20)<br> Last week it was Luli Pinot Noir at $22; this week it is Box Car. They are both fantastic displays of yummy juice. Don t dawdle with this offer, though, because if offers follow any kind of suit, then the next affordable and delicious wine could be about $32!</p> <p><strong>SAMSARA, SYRAH, VERNAS VINEYARD, SANTA BARBARA COUNTY 2007 $33</strong> (12 bottle price with discount $376.20)<br> Chad Melville s personal label Syrah is incredible! WOW. Full of rich, ripe fruit that is versatile enough to offer syrah lovers the typical varietal characteristics you want: sweet blackberries and plums with subtle smokiness and spice. Look out world, here comes Chad.</p> <p><strong>THE SEVENTY FIVE WINE COMPANY  THE SUM , RED WINE, NAPA VALLEY 2007 $22</strong> (12 bottle price with discount $250.80)<br> Tuck Beckstoffer knows grapes and what they become when they are brought up properly and allowed to come into their own. The Beckstoffer name is synonymous with undying meticulousness and high quality. The winemaker, Kenneth Juhasz, knows what it means to honor the grape and it shows in all the wines to which his name is attached (Auteur, Donum). They say:  There are layers upon layers of broad, sweet opulent fruit balanced by firm tannins, great acidity and oak. We say: Let this be your new everyday wine.</p> <p><strong>LA PIPETTE, RED WINE, NAPA VALLEY 2006 $35 </strong>(12 bottle price with discount $399)<br> To take an excerpt from a recent ACMeLOG,  The carefully selected Bordeaux style blend is from some of the most sought-after mountain-top vineyards in the Napa Valley. This is the wine of the summer for sure. It breaks down to $399 per case!! Say good-bye to your favorite $40 and under wine and say hello to La Pipette. This being officially the first week of Fall, even though it still feels like SUMMER with these 100 degree days, we can honestly say that this wine WAS the wine of the summer. We received so much positive feedback from clients who fell in love with La Pipette that we decided to give it the once over twice. We know it is almost sold out, but out of the 320 cases produced&nbsp;that are&nbsp;ONLY SOLD IN CALIFORNIA, we have a few more to sell.</p> <p><strong>FIVE VINTNERS, CABERNET SAUVIGNON, NAPA VALLEY 2006 $33</strong> (12 btl price with discount $376.20)<br> For our final wine in the $35 and under category---this story is a simple one. Krisi Raymond is a fifth generation winemaker. Her roots are in both Raymond and Beringer families. Her Zinfandel is also tasty and is located at the $22 price point making for another nice family tradition. Keeping wine scrumptious and manageable with regards to the bank account makes a heck of a lot of sense to Krisi, to us and to anyone who counts their&nbsp;pennies.</p> <p><em>New category& & </em></p> <p><strong>OAKVILLE WINE TO WATCH:</strong></p> <p><strong>TIERRA ROJA, CABERNET SAUVIGNON, OAKVILLE 2006 $115</strong><br> We ve told this story a thousand times and it seemingly never gets old when heard for the first time, that is. It is the story of viticulturist, Linda Neal. To make a long and beautiful tale somewhat short, she knows soils and vines and that knowledge has turned her into the Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon queen in our eyes. Her under 200 case production wine, made by David DeSante, is pretty much unknown to Cabernet lovers and collectors, but we plan to change that and had a big start 2 years ago when we sent it for our luxury wine club members. Greatness can never be kept a secret and that is alright with us. We like helping brands get started-all we ask is that our clients have the opportunity to receive allocations from us each vintage thereafter. We realize that it doesn t do anyone much good to find a great wine when only one vintage sits on the cellar shelves. So never fear, we will continue to receive wine every year from Linda as long as her iron-rich soils from Oakville are helpful in producing killer, over-the top, excellent, chocolatey, sublime, superbly balanced grandiose Cabernet. The property is directly under Dalla Valle and Showket on the slope heading off the Eastern range, away from Oakville East  Exposure and Phelps Backus and down towards Screaming Eagle, Rudd, Gargiulo and, just across the valley, to Opus One. As if book-ending the valley floor vineyards on the way up the Western range are Harlan, Futo, and Detert. WOW. Quite the appellation, don t you agree? We have wooden six packs available to the first 10 people who contact us---we wish there were more to go around. They should have had an Emmy category for best new wine from Oakville in the last 3 years& .maybe next year.</p> <p><strong>LAST CALL:</strong></p> <p><strong>SWITCHBACK RIDGE MERLOT 2006 (MAGNUMS ONLY) $150</strong><b><br> <strong>LEWIS RESERVE, CABERNET SAUVIGNON, NAPA VALLEY 2006 $125</strong></b></p> <p><strong>HALF BOTTLES:</strong></p> <p><strong>LA SIRENA, CABERNET SAUVIGNON, NAPA VALLEY 2006 $77 (375ml)</strong></p> <p>Taste wine with us at ACME FINE WINES!</p> <p>Every Friday Night Pulse Tastings<br> <em><span style='color:#993300'>(keeping your finger on the Pulse of wine)</span></em><br> 5PM TO 7PM<br> <br> Located at 1080 Fulton Lane (across from Railroad Avenue)<br> <br> UPCOMING TASTINGS<br> <br> Sept. 25th&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Drew Neiman pouring Bridesmaid and Neiman<br> Oct. 2nd&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Mark Porembski pouring Zeitgeist, Charnu &amp; Anomaly<br> Oct. 9th&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Robin Gerber pouring Paradigm wines<br> Oct. 16th&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Matt Licklider pouring Lioco wines<br> <br> <em>Ask to have your bottles purchased on Friday evenings signed by our guest winemaker or owner!</em></p> <p>&nbsp;FOR A FULL LIST OF ACME'S CURRENT INVENTORY, PLEASE VISIT OUR WEBSITE:&nbsp; <a href="http://www.acmefinewines.com"><b>http://www.acmefinewines.com</b></a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> </td> </tr> <tr style='mso-yfti-irow:2;mso-yfti-lastrow:yes'> <td colspan=2 style='padding:.75pt .75pt .75pt .75pt'> <p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><em>You're receiving ACMELog because you gave us your email address. </em><i><br> <em>Not interested anymore? <a href="http://acmefinewines.cmail2.com/t/y/u/khudir/dtjriihih/"><b>You can unsubscribe immediately.</b></a></em></i> <br> <a href="mailto:acme@acmefinewines.com"><b>acme@acmefinewines.com</b></a></p> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:21.6pt'><span style='font-size:9.5pt; font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"'><img border=0 width=1 height=1 id="_x0000_i1027" src="http://acmefinewines.cmail2.com/t/y/o/khudir/dtjriihih/o.gif"><o:p></o:p></span></p> </div> </body> </html>
