Syrah, Syrah and More Syrah: Horizontal Tasting from Five Wineries

Instagram

It's 90 degrees out... Time for some chilled Rosé from @billsboro. It's the perfect mix of cherry strawberry fruit notes, a touch of white pepper, and enough acid to keep you wanting just one more sip. How are you keeping cool tonight?

Ending the long weekend with a picnic wine pairing by @idolridgewinery, the finale of which was a barrel fermented Vidal Blanc ice wine paired with s'mores. It was a butterscotch apple marshmallow masterpiece. Earlier we had their Noiret and Gewurztraminer. The Noiret went great with the burger, extra peppery and berry forward, but Gewurztraminer was excellent with everything, particularly the potato salad, loads of spice and stonefruit. These virtual tastings with @montezumawinery have been a bright spot during this stay at home period. I highly suggest checking the next one out, which will feature @fossenvuewinery!

Happy #OpenLocalWine day! What's in your glass? We are celebrating with this delicious @livingrootswine Sparkling Riesling with key lime, peach and amaretto. It's a double local connection for us since the winery is local and owner @hardycoll is a @michiganstateu Spartan! Go green and go local!

Hot weather calls for high acid wines! This @sheldrakepoint Dry Riesling, aptly named Acid Head, was made with that in mind. It's got loads of tart green apple and lime peel with a bright citrus punch of acidity. It's the best way to cool off after a long day in the sun.

Date night. We ordered the octopus and chicken dinner for two from @reddrochester and popped this delicious @lakewoodvineyards Blanc de Blancs (also enjoyed a @drfrankwine Chardonnay with the chicken). If you're looking for a fun romantic night in, I highly suggest this pairing.

Are you drinking local during this period of social distancing? Join us Friday, May 22 for #OpenLocalWine night, and celebrate your region! We recently opened this fabulous @atwaterwine 2013 Blanc de Blanc. It was surprisingly bright with notes of tart green apple, crusty bread and hints of almond. If you're looking for a Champagne equivalent for #openlocalwine night, I highly suggest finding a local traditional method sparkling like this.
