Saturday in Ridgefield A Wine Tasting! Saturday the 26th with Winemaker Michele D’Aprix

Come join us for a few hours with Michele and lets talk wine and winemaking Saturday 12-5

Achados e Perdidos – Lost and Found, Branco 

2017

It is a floral and fragrant variety, although in the hands of many farmers, it struggles to retain acidity and thus is more commonly blended with higher-acid varieties rather than produced as a varietal wine. Achados e Perdidos shows a great balance between acid and fruit, and the wine seems to benefit from decanting. Flavors of lemon, peach, melon, pineapple and field flowers are often noted in Códega do Larinho wines. Better examples even exhibit some mineral qualities. Achados e Periods shows extreme minerality much in part due to the black schist of its vineyard in this particular instance.

Herrero Bodega, Rueda Verdejo Atino 

2017

This wine is a perfect crossover bottle for Sauvignon Blanc drinkers itching to take a trip to Spain…this is clean, with aromas of fresh pears

and green apple, great mouthfeel. Good minerality in the finish. Thirst quenching and great with food

Robert Gibourg, Coteaux Bourguignons 

2017

this tender and fruity wine goes well with dishes with moderate aromatic intensity, or with delicate white meats. It is a worthy partner for poultry and rabbit, as well as pasta or rice with tomato sauce or steamed vegetables. The delicacy of its tannins means it can be enjoyed with fish for those who prefer red wines over anything.

Château Beauséjour, Pentimento Montagne Saint-Émilion 2014

Fresh and juicy Merlot-based red wine from Montagne Saint Émilion. Though rich and powerful, it also possesses elegance and feminine characteristics. A hint of lavender and orchard fruits as well as cedar and red clay minerality. Unfiltered, unfined and delicious!
