11am - 7:30pm
Nothing says the start of football season and the beginning of fall like a big, hearty red wine. People absolutely LOVE really big wine. Wine that stains the teeth, enough alcohol to run your hybrid and thick jammy fruit. Well, we decided to go out and find some of the absolute biggest flavored wines that exist on the planet. Big Tempranillo from Spain, gigantic Cabernet from Napa, and even some monster wine from Chateauneuf du Pape. There are some wine writers that would describe these wines as "Hedonistic Thermonuclear Fruit Bombs" and that is exactly what these are...
Sooo - if you are looking to enjoy some really amazing wine this weekend, here are a few of the gems that we will have on the machine on Saturday...several of these definitely qualify in the "cult" wine category:
2007 Peter Michael "Les Pavots"
2007 Hollywood & Vine 2480 Cabernet
2006 Pahlmeyer Proprietary Red
2005 Gargiulo Money Road Ranch Merlot
2009 Domaine de la Janasse "Vieilles Vignes"
2004 Bodegas Muga "Prado Enea"
2010 Domaine Marcoux Cotes du Rhone
2009 Puech Haut Prestige
2008 Klinker Brick "Old Ghost" Zinfandel
So, call your best friends, draw straws to see who's going to be the D.D. and bring everyone to the tasting! The wines are going to be AMAZING!!!
