Coaltrain Wine & Spirits - Voted Best of Colorado Springs for Wine & Liquor Store
Colorado Springs' Premier Wine & Spirits Shop
United States 2010 Westerly Sauvignon Blanc, Santa Ynez Valley, $14.99: Certainly a style of Sauvignon Blanc we’ve yet to encounter. It’s not citrus or herbal. But complex and intriguing. Perhaps the cause of all this is that the wine comes from the warm foothills of the Santa Ynez Valley. A singular experience to say the… [Continue Reading]
Join us on Tuesday, April 23rd at Pizzeria Rustica for another fantastic Italian wine dinner. You will receive 5 courses and 5 wines from Vino dei Fratelli. Staci Blair from Verasion will be on hand to walk us through the wines, and Chef Jay will handle the food pairings. Just $49 plus tax and tip will land… [Continue Reading]
2012 Domaine Saint-Lannes, Cotes De Gascogne, $12.99/Sale $10.99: When we first tasted this blind we thought it was probably a Sauvignon Blanc because of its assertive nose and crisp acidity. “Mais non.” It’s made from Colombard and Gros-Manseng which are star grapes in this part of southwest France. The wine has a lovely nose of… [Continue Reading]
2010 Domaines Les Ondines, Cotes Du Rhone, $13.99/Sale $11.99: You know, we luxuriate in perpetual stupefaction over the quality of these Rhone wines from southern France. They are full flavored and so arousing on the palate. Another thing we particularly like about this “CDR” is its reasonable alcohol level, 13 percent. So many wines these… [Continue Reading]

By Raul Espinosa, Coaltrain Junior Courtesy Clerk Editor’s apology: Espinosa is perpetually trying to curry favor and fortune with his outré notions. That is why he has been recently assigned to our European bureau in Kiev, though he begged for Guatemala City, Zona Una, his home rum tasting turf. But he was last seen, sleeping… [Continue Reading]
This year’s Wine Fest was a rip-roaring riot once again. Besides the Grand Tasting and dinner, all the seminars were particularly inspiring. CLAUDE GAUDIN was here from France and provided wines from several of his Bordeaux estates. He has a very logical winemaking philosophy, “wine is the vine; the vine is wine.” 2009 Chateau Barreyre,… [Continue Reading]
2011 Penya, Pays Des Cotes Catalanes, 3 Liter, $38.99/Sale $34.99: Don’t laugh, this is indeed a box wine. It’s delicious and it’s the equivalent of four standard bottles of wine, thus it is a value at the seemingly high initial price. But the most germane point is that you can sip an occasional glass and… [Continue Reading]
2012 Bieler Rose, Sabine, Coteaux D’aix-En-Provence, $10.99: Yearly this is one of our most demanded roses. Usually it is gone in a month. For good reason…it provides delightful strawberry aromas, with a bright palate and crisp finish. Truly irresistible. If anyone still thinks all roses are sweet, they should try this. It will be a… [Continue Reading]
Save the date: On Thursday, May 23rd we will be at The Warehouse with Ross Seville of Classic Wines to explore the wine of Sonoma. Our last wine dinner at the Warehouse was very impressive – great food very thoughtfully paired with delicious wines. Stay tuned for final details, but the Warehouse has been doing… [Continue Reading]
