Local Event
Cost: Complimentary first taste and light bites
Continue the celebration of National Grenache Day (on Friday, September 20th) at the wine release party for Carlson Creek Vineyard's 2017 Grenache on Saturday, September 21 from 6-8 p.m. at their Scottsdale tasting room!
The party (which is free and open to the public) will feature a complimentary taste of this new vintage ($10/glass thereafter), and the chance to meet the winemakers.
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.
