Friday night wine tasting

Taste these three new and exciting wines at all four locations tonight from 4pm-6pm




2018 Medimer Viognier....$12.99
Well-rounded, fruity and exoticShiny yellow with intense green hues. Complex and rich in aromas of large-stone fruit such as white peach and apricot. Attacks the mouth with richness and pleasant roundness.
This Viognier is grown on the Mediterranean waterfront is principally composed of two types of sediments: tertiary (sand, clay) and quaternary (gravel). Climate: Mediterranean, along with special humidity and freshness from the Étang de Thau, creating the finest white wines.

2018 Chateau Fontana Bordeaux Rouge...$14.99
Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot
This one we tried to get last year, but the importer says it sells out so fast each year we already missed out. We are excited to be able to get the sought after 2018 vintage. This one is a fraction of the cost for Fontana’s neighbors, the wine is from Bordeaux, which is regarded as the best wine producing region in the world.
Fontana’s old-vine Merlot (36 years old!) are thriving where others are struggling and exquisitely expressing their character, blended with Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc flesh out into a champion bottle with violet aromas and a rich palate ripe red and blueberries, spice, and earth. Just as much an everyday drinker as it is a celebratory one or one to lay down, the 2018 Chateau Fontana as it is now is the very definition of an easy drinker of which, vintage after vintage, we’ve been repeatedly stunned on how superbly it exemplifies its terroir.

2017 Le Grand Valmal Cotes du Rhone Villages Vieilles Vignes...$16.99
60% Syrah, 20% Grenache, 20% Mourvedre
This Rhone is the real deal and a sensational value!
Floral notes accent fresh mixed berries in this 2017 Cotes du Rhone Villages that is made from Old Vine Syrah, Grenache and Mourvedre. The Syrah dominates and leads to a full-bodied wine but with silky tannins. It has a slight pepperiness to add some dimension and complexity. This wine is produced by the third generation on this estate and it is a fruit driven Cotes du Rhone with great roundness and complexity.
