Wine Tasting November 28
Hope you all had a hearty and festive Thanksgiving. Here we are, tummies full and spent, late on Turkey night, not much more to say beyond that for the moment. Just want to invite you to drop by on Saturday for a post-feast wind-down. While other places pick up for the Holidays, our experience on Lummi is that things start slowing way down about now. So come by, taste some surprising wines, and pass some time together.
Likely wines for this weekend:
- Artesa Chardonnay Carneros 07 (California) $17: Nicely textured, fruity, soft, mouth-filling, highly rated
- Salice Salentino Arcangelo 08 (Italy) $11 : 80% negroamaro, 20% Primitivo; expansive, rich, and robust aromas of steeped plums, cracked pepper, blackberry confit and cinnamon.
- Bibbiani Treggiaia 07 (Italy) $10 : a great value blend of sangio & cab, the ultimate pizza wine, serious but friendly,
- Stephen Vincent Zinfandel 07 (California) $10 : An amazing wine for the price; wild berry nose, with forward fruit in the mouth. Jammy and full bodied, with the right touch of toasty American oak.

We love Salice Arcangelo but haven’t found a place to buy it. We live on Bainbridge Island, Wa. Any ideas how we can get some? 🙂
