Red Friday

We hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and happily digesting yesterday’s delicious food. Here at Madrona wine we are regrouping and getting ready to pour some great wines this weekend. We will also be pouring something today, but you’ll just have to stop in to see what it is. Enjoy the sunny fall weather.

Saturday — We’ll be tasting these as long as the bottles last.

2021 Domaine de Chevilly, Quincy $22
100% Sauvignon Blanc
Loire
One of the neighboring villages to Sancerre, the Quincy is classic Sauvignon Blanc aromas and flavors of grass and citrus, but without going over the top. Filled with citrus and lined with great cut (acidity) leaving the palette ready for more. A crisp, delicious white wine.
2020 Poderi Luigi Einaudi, ‘Dogliani’ Dolcetto $22
A fantastic wine to drink while you wait for Einaudi’s Barolo to age. Ripe and fruity red, featuring black cherry, blackberry, violet and earth notes. Velvety in texture, with terrific harmony and a lingering aftertaste of dark fruit and spice, with a slight almond final note.
2018 Château Moncets, Lalande de Pomerol $21
86% Merlot, 14% Cabernet Franc
One of our best selling Bordeaux.. This wine, hugely rich and packed with tannins, has equally powerful black fruits . . . rich texture and blackberry and licorice flavors.
