2019 Caprio Cellars Eleanor Estate Red Wine
We were really taken back by the 2018 vintage of this wine and the 2019 doesn't disappoint! This is the 2019 Caprio Cellars Eleanor Estate Red Wine. The wine is a Bordeaux Blend that consists of Cabernet Sauvignon (62%), Merlot (20%), Malbec (12%) and Cabernet Franc (6%). This is not an "in your face" type of wine but rather one with a graceful introduction to blackberry and cherry aromas framed with cedar plank. In the mouth is a glass-like feel with very polished tannin against flavors of plum, blackberry, cherry cordial and baking spices. The closing moments of the wine linger and this young wine will surely continue to provide more depth with some time in the bottle. Simply lovely! 700 cases produced.

NV Treveri Cellars Chenin Blanc Sparkling Wine
We have been big fans of anything produced by Treveri Cellars for several years. Julie Grieb and her team do such a wonderful job of bringing Champagne-inspired wines to the US market at a fraction of the price of their French counterpart. We were absolutely honored to receive a few samples from Treveri Cellars this year at the same time as the State Department chef, prior to public release.
This wine presents a medium gold color and classic honey and floral aromas. A little more time in the glass and some room temperature warmth begin to pull some baking apple flavors against a zippy and lasting acidity. Unless you're sharing a bottle of sparkling wine, we find it tough to finish a bottle. We actually tasted this over two days - one day solo and the next morning with homemade sausage gravy and biscuits. This sparkling wine is an amazing accompaniment to the comfort food. Who says you can't have wine with breakfast? Not us! This sparkling wine is an amazing value!
