Balanced acidity leads to soft, semi-sweet and slightly effervescent flavors and mouth feel. \u00a0It is an extremely refreshing, vivacious and sensual wine. Winemaker Notes: The fruit is handpicked followed by crushing, cooling of crushed grapes, and pressing. Fermentation begins by inoculating with selected yeasts. Halfway through the fermentation process, the wine is centrifuged (spun) to halt fermentation, creating a slightly sweet, semi-sparkling wine.\u00a0 Serving Hints: Should be served well-chilled as an aperitif or dessert. Also tastes great with spicy Thai, Indian, Chinese or Japanese cuisine. \u00a0Grape Variety: 90% Torrontes and 10% Sauvignon Blanc<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reinares Tempranillo from Spain ($11.99)<\/strong> &#8211; The color is deep rose with a muted nose of cherries and dried flowers. The attack is very soft but at the same time dry, crisp and with good minerality. The finish is long and refined. Who says rose can&#8217;t have character?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Schild Estate Barossa Shiraz from Australia ($24.99) &#8211; <\/strong>Polished and generous, offering a racy mouthful of tobacco-accented cherry and black currant fruit that finishes with an edge of dried sage, licorice and fresh cream. This lingers impressively, showing amazing depth for the price. This wine can stand up to any barbeque!\u00a0 Drink now through 2017. <strong>Wine Spectator 92 pts.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Like us on Facebook!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tonight is a special Wednesday night Jazz night!\u00a0 We will be tasting a couple summer wines and a big Shiraz to celebrate the official start of summer.\u00a0 The Rutherford Wine tasting is tomorrow from 6:00 to 8:00!
