July Wine Tasting Club: An Exploration of Vintage Whites

Tuesday, July 16th | 5:30 - 7:00 PM

White wine isn't meant to age, right? Well, not necessarily. While a majority of white wine is intended to be consumed on the young side, certain styles and varietals can hold up over time. We will explore a lineup of white wines aging in range from 9 to 12 years. We'll let your palate decide!


Wine Tasting Club meets every third Tuesday of every month. Our staff will organize the tasting by varietal, appellation, or region. Each tasting will consist of 6 to 8 wines and will be tasted blind. The blind tasting format is guaranteed to provide ample opportunity for lively discussion and learning. Cost: $20 per person. Only 12 spots available per month.

Advanced reservation required over the phone or in person.

Muscadet Sèvre et Maine

Sur Lie

2021

Vinification in concrete vats. Maturing on lees to increase aromatic complexity. Tasting Notes: The nose, dominated by the fresh aromas brought by the sea spray of the Atlantic, also has light floral notes. The wine is characterized by its finesse and has a slight pearliness that is pleasant on the palate.


Alakì

Insolia

Terre Sicilane

2021

$11.99

La Croix Belle

Chardonnay

Pays D'OC

2022

This sophisticated Chardonnay offers a huge amount of depth and flavour- it is a wine we often enjoy ourselves at home as it really does offer superb value for everyday drinking. The colour is deep, with golden hues, hinting at what is to follow. Refreshing and intense, notes of citrus fruits and dried nuts (hazelnut, almond) come to the fore. It has persistence on the palate, with a great deal of finesse and mineral character.


Reds:


Bajel

Pirata

Monastrell

2019

$11.99

The historic wine-producing district of Alicante is one of Spain’s chief heartlands for Monastrell vines– many of them venerably old and trained en vaso, or as bushvines. While the area is traditionally known for sweet, oxidative wines, Bajel Pirata is a perfect encapsulation of the modern side of its sunny Mediterranean essence: pure, fresh, juicy unoaked Monastrell from old vines that thrive in the hot, dry conditions.

An incredible value!
