Think Pink!
We're not talking about White Zinfandel -apologies to loyal "blush" White Zin drinkers...
Want a cool, refreshing red wine that pairs with your barbeque? Then "think pink" and check out these rosés . These wines boast light pink to deep fuschia colors due to minimal skin contact time during fermentation, but they're made from the same grapes in your favorite full bodied reds- Malbec, Garnacha/Grenache, Syrah/Shiraz, Cabernet, Tempranillo, Cinsault, Pinot Noir...No need to throw an ice-cube in your precious red wine...grab a chilled rosé instead!
Cheers!

Weekend Wine Tasting
Fri & Sat April 23rd & 24th
We'll be sampling Rieslings from dry to sweet at Lexington St, and since we have 20 wines to taste Sunday, April 25th at River St, we'll have a few other tasty wines open for tasting on Fri & Sat.
Lexington Street Wine Tasting
Rieslings from dry to sweet
Here's a quick guide to Riesling labels. Its pretty much about the ripeness of the grapes in the bottle and levels of residual sugar...the lower the alcohol, the higher the residual sugar - or sweetness of the wine.
-
Trocken - dry
-
Halbtrocken - medium dry
Ripeness terms on Riesling labels from dry to sweetest -
Kabinett, Spatlese, Auslese, Beerenauslese (BA), Eiswein and Trockenbeerenauslese (TBA)
2008 Peter Lehman Eden Valley Riesling 15.99 - International award winning wine - 90pts WS.
2006 Weingut Johannishof "G" Rheingau Kabinett 25.99 -89pts WS - Beeswax and apple notes.
.
2004 Sybille Kuntz Mosel-Saar-Ruwar Trocken 17.99 - These wines by a woman winemaker (Weingut) are amazing and balanced - staff fave!
2007 Ayler Kupp Auslese Mosel-Aromas of honey and ripe stone fruit leaves flavors of fruit and honey coated nuts on the palate.
2006 Anton Finkenauer Dry Spatlese Nahe - fresh apricats and creme brulee.
Cheers!
