This Saturday, January 5, Wyatt’s is offering a free tasting of select Pinot Noirs.
Pinot Noir is a wine that goes well with all types of food, and is even light enough in alcohol to be enjoyed on its own.
Saturday, we will be sampling these fine Pinots:
Angels Landing – From the Sonoma Coast, this wine has a beautiful garnet color with wild violets on the nose. Medium bodied and supple with flavors of ripened raspberries, cranapples, and Bing cherries with a touch of birch bark.
Aresti -This wine from the Casablanca Valley is expressive with sweet notes of cherry jam, anise, and cinnamon, blended with vanilla and mocha. Its good body fills the mouth with flavors of camelized fruit and generous tannins from French oak. Experience it with fish, especially tuna, pork dishes, or pasta.
Baus Family – Leading with a nice dark translucent garnet color with long legs and a light rose aroma, Baus has pepper notes with some hibiscus with a very slight oaky vanilla bouquet. Smooth and enjoyable.
Pleasures – Delicate, yet fruit forward with strawberry, cherry and sweet spice flavors, the wine ends with firm, ripe tannins and a malt and toffee finish. A great wine to have with Ahi tuna seared rare, veggie burgers on seeded rolls, and colorful mixed green salads topped with grilled chicken and cherry tomatoes.
Tasting hours for this event will be from noon-4:45 pm, at Wyatt’s Outlaw Saloon, in the back of the store.
All of this week’s featured items will be on sale!
As always, all participants must present valid I.D.
Combining three vineyards, each with their own unique flavor profile, innovative winemaker Jayson Woodbridge, the creator of such cult favorites as Hundred Acre and Layer Cake wines, has produced Cherry Pie Pinot Noir.
