Friday Wine Tasting: Sgt. Slaughter Meets Grenache Blanc Friday, August 27th 5:30 - 8:30 pm $15/person for 5 wines + artisanal cheeses from Auntie Em's First and foremost, tonight is about this crazy Grenache Blanc from Tangent winery. One of the winery representatives was in last week and after tasting their lineupwe said, "you know what we need? we need a great domestic grenache blanc that doesn't cost $25, but it doesn't seem to exist." The rep and our distributor whispered a minute and then told us, "well, we do make this grenache blanc but there's so little of it we don't bring it out for accounts to taste." Apparently, bitch and ye shall receive... this is one stunner of a white. But if wine doesn't float your boat and you only come to our tastings because of the dorky little blurb that accompanies them, then come to celebrate Sgt. Slaughter's birthday today. If I need to tell you who he is, then it's really not worth discussing. And it might be a little embarrassing...for YOU. Because if you didn't grow up watching WWF as a kid, you were probably smart and had better things to do then watch beefy men in drag fake-beat up on each other. wines La Playa Unoaked Chardonnay, Chile Tangent Grenache Blanc, Edna Valley, California Plungerhead Lodi Zinfandel, California Novelty Hill Red, Columbia Valley, Washington Schonramer Saphir Bock, Germany |
