Friday Night Flights 8/26/11
Back To School With All A’s!
Join us this Friday Night for a taste of 3 great wines from:
Austria
Hillinger Secco Sparking Rose’
Gently sparkling and fine fruity: that’s the Hillinger Secco – the pink creation from 100% Pinot Noir grapes. The bouquet has scents of strawberries, the palate appears refreshing, fruity and finely chiselled and presents a particularly elegant Perlage, well integrated acidity and a harmonious finish
Australia
Rocky Gully Dry Riesling
90 points Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar, Sep/Oct 08
Pale yellow. Vibrant, sharply focused lemon, lime and quinine aromas reminded me of the Platonic gin and tonic. Clean, sharply focused and pure, offering energetic citrus and green apple flavors and a late note of anise. Very refreshing riesling, with excellent finishing lift and length.” 89 points Wine Spectator: “Dry and crisp, with melon and lime flavors plus floral and white pepper notes that mingle nicely with the fruit on the finish. Drink now through 2015
Argentina
Felino Cabernet Sauvignon
A deep ruby hue accompanies an earthy nose, rich with aromas of fine-grained leather and licorice. The palate is generous and complex, with intrepid notes of black currant and boysenberry weaved together with graphite and sweet tobacco. Ripe, plush tannins combine with subtle minerality creating an ideal balance and a lengthy finish
