Description of Tasting: |
Five great wines you’ll enjoy before, during and after Thanksgiving dinner on the tasting table this weekend. One is our best-selling Grüner Veltliner of all time, a wine so gulpable the winemaker needed to give you an extra one-third bottle for free. Another is the just arrived Antiquum Farm Pinot Noir Juel 2023, showcasing the richer side of Willamette Valley Pinot. And three are staff favorites from Italy, including one of the most delicious Rosso di Montalcino wines we’ve tried in years. Join us from 3-7pm on Friday, November 15 to sample: Paul D Gruner Veltliner 1.0L 2023 - We've carried every vintage of this staggering value Grüner since the then 17 year-old Paul Direder presented us with his inaugural 2008. And as crazy affordable as it seems at first, remember that there's one-third extra wine in this cheerful liter bottle! Pra Soave Classico Otto 2023 – A crisp, fresh, wine that still has enough texture and flavor to shine on the holiday table with turkey and all the fixin’s. As Vinous said of the 2022, "I could drink this sultry Soave all day long." Perticaia Umbria Rosso 2021 – Sangiovese isn’t normally a Thanksgiving recommendation, but here it’s rich and supple enough to handle all the rich flavors of a holiday meal. And from $14.98, it’s going to work for a crowd, too! Antiquum Farm Pinot Noir Juel 2023 – The newest vintage of this robust Willamette Valley Pinot Noir from grazing-based-viticulture practitioner Stephen Hagen is going to please everyone! Ucceliera Rosso di Montalcino 2022 – Want to go more robust and powerful with your turkey day selection? This is very much “baby Brunello” and ready to thrill tonight. Besides turkey and trimmings, what to eat with these holiday wines? Jose suggests Artikaas Hay There Truffle Gouda! An unpasteurized Gouda from a single herd of Holstein-Fresian cows, this is creamy, pungent, and more than a bit decadent. Fun to nibble and the place to start to make the most over the top mac and cheese ever! |
