I’m so excited for our upcoming event this weekend — our second installment in our Second Saturday Sipping series. Lucchesi Vineyards & Winery’s amazing wine maker will be pouring the five wines we carry on our shelves. To whet your wine appetite, I’m including Lucchesi’s tasting notes below:
2009 SAUVIGNON BLANC
Tasting Notes: Our 2009 Sauvignon Blanc has vibrant aromas of mellow gold grapefruit, Meyer lemon, and passion fruit that layer with a hint of jalapeño. The palate is refreshing with citrus flavors and balanced acidity through to the long finish.
2007 CHARDONNAY
Tasting Notes:
Aromas of citrus and ripe stone fruit layer with toasted hazelnuts. The palate is rich and softly textured with persistent flavors of Meyer Lemon and vanilla cream.
2006 MASQUE
Our 2006 Masque is fruit forward with aromas of ripe blackberries melding with spice and toasted notes. The palate is bursting with fruit flavors and supple tannins that carry through to the long finish.
2007 ZINFANDEL
Dark purple in color, ripe fruit with super spicy aromas lead to the juicy palate, flavors of black fruits, dark chocolate, and vanilla layer with soft acidity, velvety tannins through to the black cherry finish.
2008 PINOT GRIGIO
I couldn’t find any tasting notes for this vintage, but here are the notes for the newest vintage to give you an idea:
Aromas of fragrant white peaches mingle with floral notes of honeysuckle and orange blossom. Fresh fruit flavors include apricot and pear, the palate is long with persistent minerality.
