We have had some requests to bring back a VWT and are happy to oblige! Join us for a Friday night Zoom encounter and let’s sample two amazing wines from California:
Chamisal Chardonnay Stainless 2019, $17.50 — Lime zest, green apple, passionfruit and a light floral note. The palate showcases the ability of a chardonnay to be crisp but retain opulence without the influence of oak with a surprisingly round entry followed by long, linear acidity. Clean with a hint of salinity.
Seghesio Zinfandel Sonoma 2018, $26.99 — A bouquet of cedar, spice, and sun-ripened blackberries; bold and richly textured on the palate with an intensity and purity of fruit reflected in notes of wild blueberries, plum, and black currants. A light dusting of tannins provides structure and a long finish that is boueyed by fresh juicy acidity.
We will be joined by Rexine Connor, Mid-Atlantic Key Account Manager for Crimson. Crimson Wine Group represents a handful of west coast wineries, which are highly regarded. We tasted their Archery Summit Pinot Gris Vireton and the Seven Hills Walla Walla Merlot back in June and they were both big hits.
We have limited quantities available, so be sure to get your wine early.
The tasting will be via Zoom, no account necessary. We will send the link on the day of.
Feel free to enjoy snacks or dinner while we are tasting.
