19 Jan Thursday Tasting and Special Upcoming Events!
Time to start the weekend a little early! Today we have a pinot noir and cabernet sauvignon from California to start your weekend off right!
Charles Krug Peter Mondavi Family Pinot Noir ($26.99) – An elegant example of Carneros Pinot Noir: lively, inviting and well balanced. Scents of strawberry, ripe plum, caramel and black cherry deliver consistent fruit flavors Pinot Noir lovers have come to expect. Toasty oak and velvety tannins lead to a long silky finish…and a lasting impression.
Cannonball Cabernet Sauvignon ($13.99) – With the addition of 3% Petite Sirah and following a spectacular 2009 growing season and harvest in their Mendocino and Sonoma vineyard sources, the folks at Cannonball believe this to be their best Cabernet Sauvignon yet. True to the Cannonball promise of a wine that “wows”, this Cabernet is a real crowd-pleaser. It offers up loads of blackberry, cola, and chocolate spice in the nose, leading to a full body, with layers of vanilla and toast rounded by suave tannins. This vintage of Cannonball is a bold, textured wine with great richness but still retains its hallmark smooth mouthfeel and long, flavorful finish. At 13.8% abv, this continues to be one of our top values in domestic Cabernet for the price..
Stop in today and try both of these unique wines! If the lights are on, we are open!
