LOWEST PRICE IN THE COUNTRY

Only 30 cases available!

At 50% grenache, 30% syrah, and 20% mourvèdre, the 2010 Les Origines continues Grand Veneur's focus on the Chateauneuf-du-Pape's most classic varietals. Les Origines is built to mature, with the 2010 in particular needing some cellar time to develop into the full, floral, powerful but approachable gem it's made to be. If you're fans of the 2009 vintage, the closest comparison between the '09 and '10 in my mind are the superstar '00 and '01 vintages in Barolo. Both were outstanding, with the 2000 being just a tick more ripe and approachable at a younger age and the 2001s have a touch more classic structure and acidity.

With its combination of intense, ripe blue and blackberry flavors and herbal, floral aromatics, the 2010 Les Origines will bring joy to any Châteauneuf enthusiast. The 2010's firm tannins and acidity will find harmony with the fruits after a few years and will carry the wine for up to 15-20 years if you so desire. When the wine is ready to drink, simple dishes like lamb with rosemary, beef stews, or lightly seasoned game are a great way to allow the wine to strut its stuff. If you're feeling adventurous, the preponderance of grenache makes this Châteauneuf a versatile pairing for flavors found in Mediterranean dishes.

If you love Châteauneuf-du-Pape, don't miss out on the opportunity to stock up on this future classic.

To order, please call us at 703-525-0990. We will need your name, phone number, and Visa or MasterCard information (including expiration date). The wine will arrive tomorrow, Wednesday June 13th.

Fresh Summer Truffle (tuber aestivum)

First Offering of Summer Truffles for 2012! (Limited availability)

These aromatic little delicacies, though not as intensely perfumed (or costly) as the famous black winter truffle, still offer plenty of exquisite truffle flavor that takes chicken, steak, potatoes and pasta from ordinary to extraordinary! Summer truffles (tuber aestivum) are available April through September. Plucked from European markets at the height of their freshness, truffles are immediately shipped stateside for your enjoyment.

These beauties are similar in appearance to black winter truffles, but with a lighter color, crunchier texture and a more delicate, somewhat floral flavor that is best enjoyed raw. Try them grated over pasta, risotto, eggs or cheese dishes, or use them to finish recipes and sauces where only a short amount of cooking time is required.

Enhance the flavor of simply-seasoned grilled steaks by finishing them with a pat of butter topped with some freshly grated summer truffle. Shave fresh summer truffles over your favorite cream-sauce base ravioli or risotto. Roast a chicken, drizzle it with summer truffle sauce and serve with caramelized endives. Alternatively, serve meat alongside whipped potatoes finished with a sprinkling of truffles.

• In season from April to September
• Product of Central and Northern Italy and Spain
• Sold as whole, intact pieces of 1 ounce apiece, on average

Regular Price $499.99 per pound. This week's Special E-mail Price: $349.99 per pound. Average cost per truffle is between $25.00 - $40.00.

Fresh Moulard Duck Magret

Enjoy the best of both worlds with this succulent, best-selling duck breast!

This cross-breed of Muscovy and Pekin ducks boasts a delicious, juicy meat and a breast so big, it's often referred to as a duck steak. The size of the Moulard Magret, which is twice as big as regular duck breast, is attributed to the fact that it comes from stock raised to produce foie gras and that the ducks are corn-fed several times daily in the three weeks before processing. The meat is then aged seven days on the bone to develop a juicy meat with rich flavor and firm texture.

Prepare this Magret as you would any red meat; it works well seared and roasted, grilled or sautéed. The outer skin should be scored well before cooking to render and crisp the fat.

• Hybrid breed of Muscovy and Pekin ducks
• Tender, juicy meat with a rich flavor profile
• Farm-raised in New York State to D'Artagnan's exacting standards
• Pure vegetarian diet
• Antibiotic and Hormone free
• Package contains one half Magret duck breast
• Average size 14 OZ

Regular Price is $16.99 per pound. This week's Special E-mail Price: $13.99 per pound. Average cost is between $13.00 - $16.00 per package.

Hudson Valley 100% Corn-fed Grade A Duck Foie Gras Slices

Convenient, pre-cut slices make it easy to enjoy this luscious treat anytime!

Want to indulge in this gourmet delicacy, but don't need a whole lobe of foie gras? Nothing is quicker or easier than our ready-to-cook, 100% corn-fed duck foie gras slices. Just season, sear and serve!

These conveniently portioned, raw foie gras slices are cut from D'Artagnan's label, Grade A 100% Corn-Fed Duck Foie Gras-a favorite among their chef clientele for its naturally sweet taste and super-silky texture. Moulard ducks, a hybrid cross of a female Pekin and a male Muscovy duck, are famous for their natural tendency to gorge themselves in preparation for biannual migration. Taking advantage of this tendency, flocks are corn-fed several times daily in the three weeks just before processing to produce an enlarged liver known as foie gras. This foie gras is especially good for terrines because it releases relatively little fat. It's also very good seared.

• No hormones or antibiotics.
• Fresh Grade A, hot-eviscerated foie gras from Moulard ducks
• Ducks are raised in the French style, with 12-14 days of gavage.
• Diet is 100% corn for a distinctively sweet flavor profile.
• 2 slices of 2- 3 ounces each per package (5 oz. average total weight)

Quick Cooking Tip
Their foie gras slices are sinfully delicious and so easy to prepare! First, score the slices on both sides, then season liberally on both sides with salt and pepper. Sear in a dry hot skillet about 30 seconds per side and serve!

Regular Price $35.99 per package. This week's Special Email Price $29.99 per package.
