Local Event
Cost: Complimentary first taste and light bites
Celebrate National Grenache Day on Friday, September 20th from 6-8pm with the release of Carlson Creek Vineyard's 2017 Grenache at their Cottonwood tasting room!
The wine release party - free to attend and open to the public - will feature a complimentary taste of this new vintage ($10/glass thereafter), along with light bites and live music.
A little about the wine:
The 2017 Grenache ($32/bottle) is a dry medium-bodied red wine – originally found in Spain – that has a nose of tart red cherry, strawberry and purple flowers, which ends in a bit of earthy bliss. Fermented to dryness on the skins and pressed, it was then racked into a mix of neutral French oak barrels and puncheons. Aged for 18 months and bottled unfiltered and unfined, it pairs well with roasted or grilled meats, shepherds pie, a traditional Thanksgiving feast, cheddar or manchego cheese and when slightly chilled is the perfect complement to spicier foods.
