2017 Grand Rouge
Jeff’s Corner 8-10-18 Hello, Hello, Hello, and a Howdy just for fun! Today we’re going to take a peek at our new 2017 Grand Rouge. Grand Rouge is one of our most insanely popular wines, but first a vintage update.
2016 Merlot
Jeff’s Corner 6-21-18 “Hello, Merlot. Is there anybody in there?Just nod if you can hear me.Is there anyone at home?”
2017 Viognier
Jeff’s Corner 6-7-18 Howdy Howdy Howdy A major goal in my wine career has been to demystify it and make it simple, approachable, and enjoyable for everyone on any level. I’ve also waged constant war on the elitism and snottery (a new word) that is often associated with this wonderful beverage. Sometimes this isn’t easy, especially with the incredibly intimidating names of grape varieties and wine regions. We have all struggled with pronouncing words like Pouilly-Fuisse, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Mourvedre, Gewurztraminer, and, of course, Viogner.
2016 Mosaic
Jeff’s Corner 5-24-18 Hey, Hey, Hey, Today is Mosaic Day!!! It’s been several vintages now that Mosaic has been my favorite GCV wine, so much so that it’s gotten to the point that I’ve been trying to trade my Serendipity and Bellissimo to other staff members for their Mosaic. This is kind of like trading a Micky Mantle rookie card for a Hank Aaron, it really come down to whose your favorite because they are all great players. All our proprietary wines have really cool names, but once again Mosaic is my favorite. (I wonder if that’s true with most of us, Is our favorite wine also our favorite moniker?) So, before we take a look at the new 2016 Mosaic, let’s check out the word itself.
