Cool Reds for Summer

Wed May 23, 5-7pm, 20% off wines and foods

 

cool redmay be just the right wine for pairing on a picnic, on a hot day, for someone who doesn’t like big tannic red wines or rosés, or just because they’re fun. By “cool red”we mean red wines from our “fresh red” section that can benefit from a little cooling. These wines have a lot of flavor, but minimal tannins. The color often is a little pale compared to most reds, and they’re often made with lesser known grapes. They’re light and lively and are even more refreshing with a little chill. Try putting these wines in the refrigerator for about half hour before serving. We have four for you to try:

 

Clos Centeilles Des Anges, Carignan, Riveirenc and Piquepoul NoirFresh Red, Languedoc, Fr, Y, Tantalizing aromas of ripe cherries and delicate red fruits; Refreshing, lively and smooth on the palate and a nice depth of finish.  

 

Vinateros Bravos Volcanico, Pais, Fresh Red, Sur, Chile, Y, A bouquet of elegant spicy fruit with earth notes leading to four berry flavors with nice acidity and length and a distinctiveness from volcanic soil. All natural, from 100 yr old vines.  

 

Channing Daughters RossoFresco, Dornfelder, Cab Franc + 4Fresh Red, Long Island, NY, Y, There are high-toned aromas and flavors of red cherry, red raspberry, red plum, red current, spice and earth. This dry red wine is medium bodied, has moderate (12%) alcohol, balanced acid, very soft, silky tannins and a juicy persistent finish

 

Dom Rolet Arbois Poulsard,Fresh Red, Jura, Fr, Y, This old vines wine has a nose of red fruits, strawberries and cherry. On the palate, there is more of the same with a hint of spice and a good balance of fine tannins.
