WINE OF THE WEEK:
We are proud preachers of the beauty of bubbles, and this week’s WOW is one of the reasons why!
The Mercat Cava Brut Nature is our Wine of the Week, and it is SO tasty. 92 points Wine & Spirits and 91 points Wine Advocate.
This bone dry bubbly has a wonderful peach aroma that blossoms in the glass, along with hints of dried apricot and honeysuckle. The palate offers crisp acidity and a fine thread of lemony acidity that lends tension and poise, leading to a Champagne-like finish.
Cava is a Spanish sparkling wine that is made via the Champagne method, and it is often a great bang-for-the-buck option, both as an aperitif and with a wide variety of noshes.
Regular price on this beauty is 14.97. But this week only, through Sunday, it’s yours to savor for 12.97/bottle. Cheers!
MIDWEEK WINE FLIGHT:
This midweek we once again are getting pretty kooky. As in a crazy good flight for a mere ten bucks.
We’re talking about three wines that all scored 92 points. You get a half glass of each, and this flight is available Tues-Thurs.
Mercat Cava Brut Nature. Our WOW, 92 points Wine & Spirits.
Luke Wahluke Slope Cabernet 2019. 92 points Wine Enthusiast.
Bookwalter “Readers” Cabernet 2019. 92 points Wine Spectator.
That’s a refreshing, palate cleansing Cava, followed by two terrific Washington Cabs. Come on in, make yourself comfortable, and enjoy!
