Wine Tasting 1-4pm Saturday, Apr 5

Your host is Peter Slywka of Michael Skurnik  Wines. As you can see, Peter is tasting with some of our "Spring Chickens" today. I hope he got their ID's before he served them. Beautiful day to be out and about and I just saw on Fairfield Cheese Company's Facebook page that the grilled cheese is ready. That is where I am heading next. See you there!    

Berger Gruner Veltliner 2012                      $14.99

Fresh and espressive, with citrus, floral and mineral flavors that linger in the mouth.  It practically invites you to have a second glass.  Eric Asimov, The New York Times

Charles and Charles Rosé 2012                   $11.99

A perfect balance of fruit, acid and savory!  This Rosé features aromas of watermelon, grass, wet stones and citrus; all of which carry on through the palate to a finish of bright acidity.

Petit Chapeau Cotes du Rhone 2010           $10.99

With reliable, top-notch sources and excellent craftsmanship, the Petit Chapeau wines reflect their place of origin clearly and honestly.  This wine is a blend of 50% Grenache, 25%  Syrah, 20% Cinsault, and 5% Mourvedre. Petit Chapeau was created to offer consumers a terrific alternative to the ocean of over-manipulated, stripped, character-less value wines on the market.

Hirsch Bohan Dillon Pinot Noir 2011          $39.99

Explosive and exuberant aromatics, dominated by cherries and pomegranate. Opening to reveal notes of orange peel, clove, baking spices and a hint of vanilla. On the palate, the rich fruit of juicy plums and bing cherries is balanced by energetic acidity and a lithe tannic structure.
