FWD>Wine Tasting, Thursday, January 14th from 5 - 8 PM

Join us on January 14th from 5 - 8 PM as our friends from the Carroll Company stop in for a great wine tasting.  Here is the lineup:

Kiona Riesling - Smooth, light, spicy flavors; slightly sweet with enough acid to balance the sugar.

Hedges CMS White - A seamless combination of pear, pineapple, gooseberry, banana & wet straw on the nose, following through on the palate. Crisp acidity is balanced by sweetness of ripe fruit & a nicely viscous mouth-feel. Grapes were sourced from four Columbia Valley vineyards: Bacchus, Dionysus, Destiny Ridge & Arete. 77% Sauvignon Blanc, 21% Chardonnay & 2% Marsanne.

Serena - A fun, slightly sweet wine to be served slightly chilled. A perfect match for desserts or for sipping.

Ali Sangiovese - This is a dark ruby-color wine, with appealing scents of black and red cherries and warm spices. Juicy and tart, it's all about simple fresh-cherry fruit and zippy acidity in a nicely balanced package. Simple, low-end Sangiovese, on the modest side, but its good quality makes it a fair ringer for a decent Chianti.

Foppiano Lot 96 - The blend in this wine avails you to an unctuous, food friendly experience. Sangiovese plays a big part in structure as well as a dynamic fruit component. Soft, ready to drink and very supple. 28% Sangiovese, 19% Petite Sirah, 17% Zinfandel, 14% Carignane, 10% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc.

ChocoVine - ChocoVine is a fine French Cabernet subtly combined with a rich dark chocolate from Holland, paired together to create a decadent, silky smooth drink. It can be served on the rocks or as the main ingredient to an array of sinful cocktails.

Rum Chata - Master blender Thomas Maas of Agave Loco Brands has combined Horchata, a sweet, cold beverage made from rice, cinnamon, sugar, vanilla and real dairy cream, with five-times distilled premium Caribbean rum to create Rum Chata. The result is a creamy, smooth after-dinner drink that also helps counteract the effects of eating hot, spicy food.
