Friday Night Tasting Lineup
Pizzolato Fields Prosecco DOC
A new favorite affordable Prosecco, that we have in stack quantities for the holidays. Really fresh, clean and pretty, and very versatile as a food wine for pairing with all kinds of tasty things. The estate is located in the rich and flourishing countryside in the north of Treviso, and the vineyards are situated on the plains and hillsides near PIAVE river. Tasting Notes - Wine Enthusiast: This is a sweet style of Prosecco with a luminous appearance and grassy-herbal notes followed by white peach, honey and jasmine. More herbal flavors appear on the close and the wine is fresh and simple in the mouth. Tasting Notes - Tastings.com: Pale straw color. Nougat and peach custard aromas follow through on a crisp entry to a dryish light-to-medium body with baked apple and delicate spice accents. Finishes in an oily nut and lemon rind fade with drying, talc-like fruit tannins. Only Indigenous Yeasts used. Suitable for Vegans. Wine made from USDA National Organic Program Certified Grapes. Certified by BIOS.

2011 Left Coast Pinot Gris
From our friends at Left Coast, where they are definitely doing things right. This comes out of an old orchard on their property, from a vintage that was spectacular for Pinot Gris. Ken's Wine Guide - "This clear colored Pinot Gris from Oregon opens with a mild apricot and tangerine bouquet with a hint of lychee. On the palate, this wine is light bodied, shows nice acidity and life. The flavor profile is a tangy lime with hints tangerine, peach and white pepper. The finish is dry and rather refreshing. I would serve it with swordfish kabobs. Enjoy" - Ken. CellarTracker - "Tropical aromas with melon, wheat straw and toasty lees. Rich and ripe on the palate with tropical pineapple and spice across a medium+ finish. Enjoyed." "Tropical fruit and flowers on the nose, with some honey at the end. Rich and sweet on the palate, with floral notes and tropical fruit."

2011 Left Coast Cali's Cuvee Pinot Noir
We skipped right past the tiny 2010 vintage into 2011, and this is drinking great, very bright fruit and tangy cherry acid. We love it, and are very happy that we have such a great example of Oregon Pinot Noir that we can offer for under $20. CellarTracker - "Sample from tank. Fresh aromas reminding me of carbonic maceration with cherry and herbal highlights. Juicy and polished on the palate with round tannins. Really enjoyable as a young fresh wine."
