Yes we will have our Wednesday Night Wine Tasting and light Jazz music for your entertainment. 
We have some wonderful new wines ordered for the holidays and we are waiting to see exactly what gets shipped this week.  Therefore,I am not going to put tasting notes for Wednesday because it all could change just depending on the shipment.  But I promise you it will be great no matter what! 
So take a little time for yourself Wednesday night before all that cooking and family merriment.  You deserve to Wine'd Down!
Friday Wine Tasting

Arcadian "Sleepy Hollow" Chardonnay 03

90 Points Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar - Deep straw color. Musky, high-toned aromas of pineapple, smoked meat and honey. Concentrated, tactile and saline, with somewhat exotic flavors of apple, papaya, pear skin, toffee, honey and brown butter. Finishes dry and stony.      

 

Arcadian Syrah Santa Ynez 05      

Medium to full bodied wine that is rich, and spicy with complex aromas and flavors of ripe red and black fruit, game, mushroom, herbs, rhubarb, and roasted coffee.          

 

Treana White 06

A blend of Marsanne and Viognier, two white Rhône varietals that thrive in California's Central Coast. All of the fruit is from the Mer Soleil Vineyard in the Santa Lucia Highlands, just south of Monterey Bay. The marriage of these two varietals highlights the tropical notes found in both grapes, and gives the wine a lush, cohesive palate of exciting flavors.         

 

Zenato Ripassa 05

A blend of 80% Corvina, 10% Rondinella, and 10% Sangiovese. Deep ruby-red in color with a complex nose of dried fruit and licorice. The wine offers rich aromas of blackberry jam, currant, chocolate, coffee and tar that linger on the palate and are sustained by a round and structured body. Recommended with grilled meat dishes.


 
A friendly reminder, December 14th is the date of our annual Wine and Chocolate Tasting and December 21st will be the sparkling tasting.
As usual we will not charge for these amazing events. 
 
Additionally, this year we will be collecting un-wrapped toys for the "Toys for Tots" campaign.  Stop by and help us make this Christmas a little more special for a child.
 
Sincerely,

Joseph Drouhin
This wonderful company was started in 1880 and has been passed down through the family over the years.  The quality (absolutely fabulous) of production only gets better with time.  This family puts their heart and soul into every bottle.  What better wine to serve with your Thanksgiving meal?
 
Skills get more refined, methods evolve, but what's important is what is transmitted from generation to generation : the search for excellence, the
intellectual curiosity, the sense of values, passion, the respect for terroir.  "When your name is Drouhin, wine is more than an everyday job". Robert J Drouhin
