Quite often, I’m asked how we choose wines for our weekend tasting.  Sometimes, it’s what’s new that I want to share with my customers.  Other times,  it’s a certain winemaker that I want to feature.  This weekend, I’m letting Linnea choose what we are tasting!

We will start with a very nice dry French Rose – soft pink in color, it is
fresh and elegant with aromas of pear, raspberry and red currant.  Wonderful with grilled fish or sweet and savory Asian dishes.

Second in the lineup is another French wine – a Cotes-du-Rhone – mainly Grenache and Syrah.  Rich and complex, this wine  is full of cherry and spice.  It’s also a great value – down to $9.99 from $14.99.        

Our third wine is a wonderful 100% Garnacha from Spain.  Ripe and juicy with deep blackberry flavors, this wine has nice tannins and soft vanilla finish.

Our final wine is a lovely sweet German Riesling with the aromas and flavors of candied pears and apples. Lush, rich and expressive, this is a wonderful wine with fruit and cheese plates, spicy cuisines or just as dessert itself.

Join us this weekend. 

Cheers!
