The Wine Pig

After months of patience, the much anticipated 2007 Vintage of Hofer Gruner Veltliner is here!

For many of my customers this wine needs no introduction,  but if you are one of the few who is not familiar allow me to assist.

Gruner Veltliner is the flagship white grape of Austria. Soft and light, but deeply flavorful and rich, this wine has lovely notes of citrus with a very light peppery spice, finishing clean and refreshing.

The perfect wine for just about any summertime occasion!

This week I bring you not just one wine, but three!

Columbia Crest’s Vineyard 10 series is an example of the beautiful and approachable wines that can be produced for a tiny price in Washington State.

The Red is a blend of Syrah, Sangiovese and Cabernet. 88 Points - Wine Spectator

The White is a blend of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon. 88 Points - Wine Spectator

The Rose is a blend of Syrah and Viognier. 87 Points - Wine Spectator

These wines are all great values and are sure to please!

This week’s wine is for all of my customers who have been disappointed by the city-wide outage of Calera  Chardonnay.

Edna Valley Chardonnay is a full, round Chardonnay with notes of white peach and citrus, finishing with a subtle minerality. A great choice for any Chardonnay lover.
