WINESDAY ROCKS!
No wine bar in the history of the
universe would ever, ever serve up
a wine flight like this for just $10:
Montes Alpha Chardonnay 2008, $16.97
-89 points Wine Advocate, “light gold colored
with an aromatic array of buttered popcorn,
mineral, poached pear, and apple. Smooth-
textured and friendly on the palate.”
Amancaya Malbec-Cabernet Gran Reserva 2011, $17.97
-89 points Tobin Bros, “this collaboration between
Nicolas Catena and Lafite Rothschild – among the
heaviest hitters in Argentina and Bordeaux,
respectively – shows off lush aromas and flavors
of cherry and plum accented by a dash of vanilla
and subtle notes of coffee, tobacco, and cedar
dust.”
Cayu Malbec 2007, $39.97
-92 points Wine Advocate and Wine Enthusiast,
“Cola, mint, black fruit and chocolate combine
to form the full package in Malbec aromatics.
Runs a mile deep in the mouth, with concentration,
tannic grip and ripe blackberry, dark plum and
cassis flavors. Peppery and chocolaty on the finish,
with density and depth.”
That’s right. You get a half glass of each
of these for just ten bucks.
This deal is available this Wednesday,
May 15, any time from 5-9 pm.
