Parlez-vous français? We will this Sunday afternoon. A white, a red, but no rosé. Stop in and give them a try.

2012 Gouleyant Gaillac Blanc    ($10)
80% Lion de l’oeil, 20% Sauvignon Blanc
The Lion has an extremely aromatic nose, mainly dominated by citrus aromas and hints of flowers. Its mouth is fresh, long, and crisp with flavors of white peach and plum. 12% alcohol by volume

2012 Chateau Paret Bordeaux    ($10)
85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc
A great everyday Bordeaux that has nothing to do with tropical pets or pirates. It’s a supple and medium-bodied wine, with dark fruit, a soft glycerin texture and very velvety tannins. Easy to like.

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 from 11-5.
