September wine-club picks:
Varietal, Region: 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Petit Sirah, 10% Merlot, Napa Valley
Price: About $25/bottle
My Tasting Notes: Bright berry flavors with soft tannins. Jammy, fruit forward with notes of blackberry and currant.
My Verdict: Perfect for a picnic (where did the warm weather go?!), dinner with friends, or just to sip on after a long day.
Varietal, Region: Sauv Blanc, Mendocino County
Price: $18.99 /bottle
My Tasting Notes: Citrusy aroma and well balanced. Crisp notes of grapefruit, green apple and a tiny hint of lime.
My Verdict: This wine is organic, which is something I like (but is often much more difficult to find). It should be a go-to for anyone who likes Sauv Blancs with a slightly sweet finish.
Now the real treat...A video with adorable sheep that help Yorkville Cellars maintain it's organic grape growing!
Cheers!
