LISLE WINE TO GO!

We continue celebrating Bastille Day and French Independence with WINE TO GO 3 Packs at Malloy's Finest Lisle! Enjoy the diversity and value of wines from Southern France!

Our WHITE 3 Pack starts "a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away" with an Organic Provence Rosé from George Lucas and Skywalker Vineyards Chateau Margui. Luminous notes of fresh grapefruit and a burst of peach and pear enhanced by stony minerality, are balanced and persistent. May the Rosé be with you as you savor grilled Langostinos and Mediterranean Seafood. From the hills of Provence, we head down to the French Riviera where we mingle with the rich and famous drinking "La Colline aux Fossiles" Chardonnay. Beautifully textured and layered flavors of stone fruits, citrus and minerals are perfect while sitting in the shade of an umbrella, enjoying a cold lobster salad. Further West in the Cotes de Thongue, we enjoy La Croix Belle "Les Champ des Lys". Translated as "field of lilies", this blend of Chardonnay, Viognier, Grenache Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc is a fresh breeze with aromas of spring flowers and easy drinking flavors of peach and pear with a kiss of citrus. A summer treat on its own or with a grilled peach salad or a savory Pissaladiere. Wonderful WHITES for only $52 after 15% discount.  

Our RED 3 Pack starts with Malbec, known today as the iconic grape of Argentina, but originally a variety native to Cahors in Southwest France. Chateau Armandiere from a fourth-generation vigneron, combines modern techniques with traditional sensibility. Rich and generous flavors of ripe red and black fruit are smooth and balanced. Pair with big grilled beef ribs and if you're feeling adventurous, compare with an Argentinian Malbec.  Next, from the finest section of Minervois in the Languedoc, is St. Eulalie 'Cantilene'. This blend of Syrah, Carignan and Grenache is full bodied and creamy in texture, with layers of ripe black cherries and dark chocolate. Pair this fleshy wine with charcuterie or grilled red meats and game.  We finish with Château La Nerthe Les Cassagnes Côtes-du-Rhône Villages. A round and velvety blend of organic Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre with aromas and flavors of strawberries, sweet cherries, praline, roasted meat and mixed spices. With a vibrant finish, it's a joy with French Bistro fare like Pate Campagne, Steak Frites, braised Lamb Shanks, and Ratatouille. It's even on the wine list at Thomas Keller's Bouchon Bistro in Napa. Ravishing REDS for only $58 after 15% discount.
