Wine Tasting Notes – Saturday, September 6, 2008
Cost per flight per person: $15.00 ($7.50 for Wine Club Members)
Clif “The Climber” Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Blanc, Chenin Blanc, Muscat, California - Delightful aromas of passion fruit, grapefruit and honeysuckle lead to layers of citrus, nectarine and peach flavors. The result is a full flavored, crisp wine with good balance and acidity and a lingering finish.
Indian Springs Vineyard Cabernet Franc, Sierra Foothills, CA - Robust and exhibiting a great structure. Blackberry and blueberry nuances draw to the luscious flavors of black cherry, cinnamon and cedar. A well balanced wine with a silky long finish.
Young’s Vineyard Sangiovese, Shenandoah Valley, CA - This wine is dark, full-bodied, and loaded with fruit. The color and body enhanced by the addition of Syrah to the finished wine. This is a rich and luscious wine with touches of toasted oak and caramel on the finish.
William James Cellars Grenache, Santa Barbara County, CA - Medium bodied, ruby in color. Pops with pomegranate and black cherry with a hint of spice while the nose smells of perfumed plum.
Raymond Reserve Merlot, Napa Valley, CA - The polished flavors of plums and blackberries are joined with earthier ones of dried herbs, green olives and sweet, smoked meat, all wrapped in softly plush, complex tannins.
