This Week's Tasting:

As promised, this week is all about "oaked vs. unoaked."
This is a tasting that I recommend you do blindly, so you can decide for yourself if you prefer a wine that has been in contact with oak, or those clean, stainless steel wines.
I challenge you to come in and taste for yourself.

Today through Saturday from 5pm - 7pm.

As always, only $15...but this time, we're tasting six wines!

Tastings

Thanks to all who came out this week for our wine tastings from 5-7! I believe all involved had a fantastic time. I love seeing the same faces over and over and learning exactly what your palate is like so I can customize your tasting for you. For those of you who missed this past week:
Chateau de Roquefort, Cotes de Provence, Corail, Rose 2007
Joseph Drouhin St. Verain, 2006
Domaine de Chesnay Cotes du Rhone, 2006
Chateau Larose Trintaudon, Bordeaux, 2004.
Next week I am considering doing "Oaked vs Unoaked" whites AND reds! We'll probably do 6 wines this time, still for $15 per person!
I'll see you all again soon!
Cheers,

Ashley
