This Friday Night

Wines That Rock

 

Presented by Bob Neville

5:00-8:00 PM No Charge  

 

In October 2009, Wines That Rock popped their corks for the first time backstage at the 25th Anniversary Shows for the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame.

 

Wines That Rock:

 

"With the walls at Madison Square Garden shaking as Bruce Springsteen, U2, Metallica, Mick Jaggar and so many others totally rocking the house, the Wines That Rock team poured like they never poured before. A totally fun and amazing way for us to kick our company off on the right note!"

  

DRINK DIFFERENT



WOODSTOCK CHARDONNAY

The Woodstock Chardonnay opens with an enjoyable eclectic mixture of rich pear, mineral, and papaya aromas followed by fresh flavors of Asian pear apple, citrus, and tropical fruit with great acid on the finish. Or as Mark likes to say, "sunshine in a bottle". Enjoy this rich dry white wine with salmon, chicken, creamy soups, and white sauced pasta.

GRATEFUL DEAD RED

To capture the essence of the live energy of the Grateful Dead's Steal Your Face, Winemaker Mark Beaman chose to meld several varieties into one.  

 

Just as the band members would segue through various musical styles, this wines far reaching flavors melt seamlessly from one to the next, blending Syrah, Petite Sirah, Zinfandel & Grenache.  In honor of the band's famous improvisational concerts that have brought joy to so many, this wine celebrates Mendocino County's bounty of diversity and freedom of experimentation.

  

Grateful Dead Red Wine Blend:  distinctively unique mix of black cherries & peppered bacon with a velvety vanilla and caramel finish.





DARK SIDE OF THE MOON

A varietal with a deep, complex character that takes a relaxed environment to fully appreciate, Cabernet Sauvignon reflects the hauntingly dense, timeless character of Pink Floyd's masterpiece album.

The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon captures the attitude of Mendocino County's style. Aromas of black currant and cherry are followed by rich flavors of cassis, toasted vanilla bean, and hints of chocolate. Enjoy this rich dry red wine with hearty chicken dishes, beef and lamb, and red sauced pasta.

If you drink the whiskey that warmed General Washington's troops at Valley Forge, does that make you a patriot?
Not necessarily, but it indicates you appreciate that Michter's sets the standard for highest quality, limited production whiskeys.
