The fall season is now in full swing. The temps are dropping as are the leaves and we are bundling up for chilly times. Nothing goes better with that crisp fall air than some hearty reds to warm your spirits and your body. This week we taste four stunning beauties that are great for parties, pairing with autumn meals, or just warming up by the fire as a standalone beverage. Don't miss Wine Enthusiast's #9 of their 2020 top 100 wines and the cool labels. Join us at Pettyjohn's tonight from 5-7 and bring your family and friends!
Patricia Green Cellars "Dollar Bills Only" Pinot Noir Willamette Valley- Reg $18.99 SALE $15.99
"This 2020 wine is the best we could do with what we had left from our Estate Vineyard, Freedom Hill Vineyard, Ridgecrest Vineyard, Risdall Ranch/Shafer Vineyard and Wind Ridge Vineyard. High pedigree fruit that was destined to make some legendary wine as the 2020 vintage was absolutely stellar. Without going to some dark and nasty place where weird shit was added into the wine, we did the best we could with the information and resources available to produce a Pinot Noir that looks like Pinot Noir, smells simply amazing and has enough redemptive characteristics and a lot of sweet fruit to be bottled and sold without feeling like we are selling people a false bill of goods."
El Coto De Rioja Rioja Gran Reserva Coto De Imaz- Reg $32.99 SALE $30.99
#9 WINE ENTHUSIAST TOP 100 OF 2020
Classic Rioja aromas of graphite, cherry, plum and oak are lightly toasted and spicy. On the palate, this offers chewy depth and impeccable balance. Ripe, heady plum, cassis and berry flavors are also nuanced and elegant, while this gran reserva from a ripe vintage tastes of vanilla and mild oak on the finish. For an affordable high-quality gem, look no further. Drink through 2028. -MICHAEL SCHACHNER
2018 Juggernaut 'Hillside' Cabernet Sauvignon California, USA- Reg $21.99 SALE $17.99
This fierce Cabernet was aged in French Oak barrels which is the reason for the nicely dense and velvety flavors. Vanilla and ripe black currants dance on the palate with licorice, black fruit and cassis aromas on the nose. Enjoy with friends!
2019 The Prisoner Red Blend Red Wine- Reg $52.99 SALE $48.99
Made with a diverse combination of dark red grapes to bestow distinct quality and character, The Prisoner Red Blend Red Wine is luscious, smooth, and balanced. This California red wine is inspired by the blended wines that were made by Italian immigrants who originally settled in Napa Valley. Crafted with an unlikely mix of zinfandel, cabernet sauvignon, petite sirah, syrah, and merlot, this dark red wine blend features bright aromas of ripe raspberry, vanilla, and coconut. These scents give way to persistent tastes of fresh and dried blackberry and pomegranate with a lingering vanilla flavor. Barrel aging in a combination of old and new, French and American oak barrels brings out the full flavors of this red California wine, making it a great match for grilled meats, especially when they are topped with sweet or tomato-based sauces. Round off a meal with this delicious red wine for a lusciously smooth finish that lingers on the palate. For best taste, store this red wine bottle at room temperature but chill for at least 30 minutes before serving
