Friday Wine Tasting 9.29.17

We love hosting our wine tastings for lots of reasons. It’s a great way to introduce you to new wines, to encourage curiosity and exploration, and to take a bit of time to educate you more about wine in general. But it’s also a great chance to simply get to know you. To take a few minutes after what might have been a hard week to relax, socialize and unwind. Wine can be a great ice breaker and a wonderful reminder of the happier, finer things in life. We hope to see you there!

LA CHERTOSA RESERVE CHARDONNAY
Brilliant gold in color, this full bodied and complex Chardonnay offers a rich nose of ripe pear, Golden Delicious apple and hints of brioche. The palate is smooth and slightly creamy with fresh fruit flavors enhanced by notes of toasted oak.

WESTSIDE CROSSING CROSSWORD
A blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir, this wine show a nose of juicy black fruits, cedar and dried herbs. The palate is full and juicy, dominated by flavors of ripe cherry, plum and cassis. Fine grained tannins linger into the smooth finish accompanied by flavors of tobacco and bittersweet chocolate.

LA CHERTOSA RESERVE ZINFANDEL
By selecting Zinfandel grapes from different areas throughout the property, vintners are able to make a “field blend” with enhanced complexity. Extra fermentation time gives this wine enhanced flavor and color extraction giving us a deep ruby red wine with bold cherry and red fruit flavors. Silky and soft with a clean acidity, this wine is a delicious and decadent experience.

THE JACK RED
This Merlot blend from the Columbia Valley in Washington is a playful, approachable wine that is sure to please. Enticing aromas of blackberries and plum lead into a smooth, silky palate full of black cherry and violet flavors.
