FREE Wine Tasting in Asheville on July 4th
July 4 3-6PM Asheville, Hops & Vines. New Featured Wine from acclaimed winemaker Teddy Hall! 2007 Teddy Hall "Summer Moments" Chenin Blanc - Yes, we're tasting wine on Independence Day! (Stop by on your way to the festivities!) To celebrate, we're going to taste a most quintessential porch/bbq wine! For this week's description, I’m deferring to the words of wine critic Steven Tanzer (since he says it better than I can!): “Pale straw. Musky aromas of peach, citrus peel, herbs and earth. Fat and soft, with good verve to the flavors of vineyard peach and apple. Reminded me of a Vouvray. Finishes with notes of honey and powdered stone. Teddy Hall is the owner/winemaker for Rudera and a long-time chenin specialist." He goes on to score the wine 89 points (out of 100). Wine Spectator als o ranked the wine as a Best Buy. Less than 5K cases produced! Regular Price $9.99 Sale price on Saturday, July 4th ONLY: $7.99!! 797 Haywood Rd, Ste 100, West Asheville. http://www.hopsandvines.net/
