This weekend's tastings are all about great wines and great value!
We'll start with three highly-rated and shockingly well priced Champagnes from boutique house AR Lenoble. Then you'll try three lovely Languedoc values from the "Lafite of the Languedoc" Moulin de Gassac. Join us from 3-7pm on Friday and noon-4pm on Saturday to try:
AR Lenoble Cuvee Intense Mag 14 Brut NV - A classic, 93 point, Brut Non-Vintage Champagne blending vintage 2014 Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier with 40% reserve wines aged 4+ years in magnum under cork. From $32.98, this is one of the best Champagne values we've tasted in years.
AR Lenoble Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Mag 14 NV -100% Grand Cru Chardonnay from vintage 2014 plus 40% Grand Cru Chardonnay aged 4+ years in magnum, this is simply stunning Champagne that may even outperform it's very grand 94 point review. From $38.98.
AR Lenoble Rosé Terriors Chouilly-Bisseuil Brut NV - If you enjoy Billecart Salmon Rose, then this strawberry scented blend of 88% Chardonnay from Chouilly Grand Cru and 12% Pinot Noir from Bisseuil 1er Cru will thrill you completely - especially from $39.98!
Moulin de Gassac Guilhem Rosé 2018 - Here it is: the new release of the most popular rosé in the store's history. In 2018, this blend of Languedoc Syrah and Carignan is even more "berry" delicious than in the past with a fleshy watermelon note and a crisp, fresh, finish. From $7.98 this weekend!
Moulin de Gassac Guilhem Blanc 2017 - "Snappy" is the word I reach for first in describing this remarkable blend of Grenache Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, and Languedoc's traditional Terret Blanc grape.
Moulin de Gassac Guilhem Rouge 2017 - Yet another outstanding release of this long-time customer and staff favorite value red, with generous does of blackberry and cherry fruit and a just-right touch of mineral and chocolate.
As always, we'll have some treats from the cheese case out to try with the wines and best six- and 12-bottle sale prices available on mix/match basis during the tasting. Don't miss it!
