While our celebrations have been dampened by the attack in Nice, we’ll still be pouring French wines all weekend long in honor of Bastille Day.
Saturday we have a great line up from our friends at Barrique Imports, featuring:
2014 Grand Fief Cormeraie Muscadet
2015 Nature de Roubie, Rosé
2011 Maison Lou Dumont, Savigney lès Beaune
2013 Domaine des Amphores, Saint Joseph
2012 Domaine Labranche Laffont, Madiran
Sunday, we are showing off two French wines from the south.
2015 Chateau d’Eau $10
Cinsault Rosé
A crisp and elegant Languedoc rosé from the signature grape for Pink.
Eric Jamet Le Sang du Peuple $12
50% Grenache, 50% Syrah
A thick and jammy Rhône blend with lots of black berry and cherry fruit and a bit of toasty notes to keep the blood of the people pumping.
Madrona Wine Merchants offers free wine tastings featuring 4-5 selections on a theme every Saturday from 2 until the bottles run out and on Sunday we offer a mini-tasting of two wines all day.
