We now have a new cheese supplier!\u00a0 Six new cheeses that go great with wine!\u00a0 It’s Friday!\u00a0 Let’s taste three reds wines and a white this evening!\u00a0 Mark your calendars for our next big tasting!\u00a0 On Wednesday, April 25th, \u00a0we will be tasting eight wines from Italy!<\/p>\n

Schild Estate Barossa Shiraz from Australia ($24.99) – <\/strong>“An expressive Shiraz, bursting with dark plum and bright blueberry notes, joined by hints of roasted meat and spice. The finish rolls along with an airy, open texture that lets the flavors sail. Has depth and pinpoint balance. Drink through 2019.” – 92 Points Wine Spectator <\/strong><\/p>\n

Esenzia Old Vine Garnacha from Spain \u00a0($15.99)<\/strong> – Color: Maraschino-red color with purple edges.\u00a0 Nose: On the nose, dry red raspberry, cherry, red currant, smoke.\u00a0 Palate: On the palate, fresh raspberry, bright red juicy fruit with great minerality and spice, good acidity, grippy tannins, medium body and a long finish.<\/p>\n

Camp Viejo Rioha Tempranillo from Spain \u00a0($10.99)<\/strong> – The 2010 Campo Viejo Rioja Tempranillo is a new offering of 100 percent tempranillo from Rioja’s largest wine producer. \u00a0Its spicy nose gives way to cherry and plum flavors on the palate, augmented by a touch of tobacco. A bit of sweet vanilla comes through on the smooth finish.<\/p>\n

Pacific Rim Gewurtztraminer from Washington \u00a0($12.99)<\/strong> – winemaker’s notes: Our 2010 Gew\u00fcrztraminer is crafted from Washington grapes. We often put the juice and the grape skins in contact to extract and unleash the exquisite Gew\u00fcrztraminer aromas locked in the skin. The juice is then cold temperature fermented over 20 days. We do not use any oak and do not put the wine through malolactic fermentation.\u00a0 The wine is crisp with a slight residual sugar of 1.7% with flavors of lychee, melon and tangerine. Our Gewurztraminer is an exceptional match with spicy Indian food, lemon chicken and blue cheeses.<\/p>\n
