It's going to be stupid hot this weekend, so we're featuring some stupid delicious wines to quench your thirst and beat the heat with this Friday from 3-7pm and Saturday from noon-4pm. Join us to sample:
 
Dom Philemon Gaillac Blanc Perle Nature 2018 - A little like Spanish Txokolina or Portuguese Vinho Verde, but more delicious and a great value at $9.98 this weekend! Bone dry, mouthwatering, a little salty, and retaining a touch of post-fermentation CO2 for extra zest.
 
De Moya Merseguera Tibo 2016 New grape time - try some Merseguera (with 20% Muscat tossed in for extra perfume) grown at 1,000 feet altitude in Spain's Valencia region. Aromatic, complex, and crispy dry, this is a great summer white!
 
Ruttenstock Gruner Veltliner Ried Reipersberg 2018 - We know it's delicious, and the experts of Austrian wine agree, awarding this fabulous dry Grüner a top-3 ranking among 1,000 GVs sampled during the rigorous Salon 2019 tasting. A steal from $12.98.
 
Dom de Homs l'Amandier Cinsault 2017 - Cinsault don't get no respect, except perhaps as a freshening ingredient in Languedoc rosé. But ripen it fully, keep the alcohol and tannins down, and bottle it fresh like this and you have one of the most deliciously gluggable, chillable, reds we've tried this year!
 
Tilia Cabernet Sauvignon Mendoza 2018 - This could well be the single best value Cabernet Sauvignon we bring you in 2019, a rich and chocolaty red that's a steal from $8.98
 
We'll have some treats from the cheese case out to sample with the wines and best six- and 12-bottle savings prices available on mix/match orders during the tasting. So brave the July weekend heat to come by and try some cool - and cooling - wines both days!
