We’re going a little fancy-pants with this week’s tasting selections, giving you a chance to taste some super-premium selections you might otherwise miss. Join us from 3-7pm Friday and noon-4pm on Saturday to sample:
Dom Barat - Chablis 1er Cru Cote de Lechet (M.J. Label) 2022 – Steep slopes, lots of chalk, and old vines come together here to give vibrant, lemon-scented, Chablis that’s ready to enjoy tonight.
Dom Barat Chablis 1er Cru Mont De Milieu (M.J. Label) 2022 – The sunny site and vintage give this plenty of volume with no loss of classic Chablis Chardonnay minerality and zest.
Zeitgeist Chenin Blanc Napa Valley 2022 – From “The Mystery St. Helena Chenin Vineyard” where unfashionable Chenin vines have been left to mature for decades, this is deep, savory, and delicious!
Dom Jean-Paul Tollot et Anne Gros la 50/50 2022 – Two Burgundy stars work magic with rich Carignan, Cinsault, Grenache and Syrah from France’s deep south.
Zeitgeist Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2021 – Pretty much the essence of Napa Cabernet from five sites across the Valley with generous fruit, supple structure, and a touch of oak.
These big wines will show best alongside a mellow cheese, so we’ll be sampling a delicious new arrival, Cacio de Roma. It’s a semi-soft, sheep's milk cheese from the hillsides outside of Rome, aged one month and shaped in a small round called caciotta. The mild, almost sweet, flavor invites snacking and pairing up with big wines, and it’s smooth melting makes it a natural in cheesy pasta and on pizza.
