2014 Charles Smith Kung Fu Girl Riesling

Greetings on this beautiful Sunday afternoon.  I've got a bottle of white wine open tonight - yes, you heard me right - no red on this Sunday.  The reason - well I happened to stumble upon a wonderful Riesling while I was up in Walla Walla, Washington last weekend.  The downtown is full of tasting rooms and the Charles Smith Winery Tasting room was just around the corner from the hotel that I was staying at.

Brought a couple of bottles from that Winery home with me and I thought I would start with the white.  This Riesling is sourced from the Evergreen Vineyard along the cliffs of the Columbia River in Washington where it is grown in the fragmented basalt and gravel silt soil (more on the rocks later).

The nose is full of apricot and honey.  Clear and bright, this wine tastes of tart apple and has a wonderful fresh peach layer as well.  This wine is off dry, not sweet and has some nice acidity that is balanced well by the Rock.  Yes, this wine has the Rock, as in the minerality that balances out the acidity so well.  More on the Minerality in the link below.  A wonderful wine that should go well with the Chinese food I've ordered up tonight.  I'm a little under the weather (but recovering nicely) so I won't be cooking tonight.   This wine will pair perfectly with the Spicy Shrimp Chow Fun that I've ordered.  The second glass should pair well with the cold meds and send me off to some much needed slumber.

Cheers,
Jerry

Anchor Winter Wheat

Sunny but a bit chilly out here in California.  Have no fear, as I have a Winter Wheat to keep me warm, specifically Anchor Brewing Winter Wheat.  This beer is brewed seasonally by Anchor with five different wheats from all over the world, including one right in Anchor's backyard.  One of the varieties is a soft winter wheat grown in the Bay Area used primarily for Atisanal flatbeards, cakes and pastries (according to the Anchor website).  Artisanal - really Anchor? - isn't this Beer we are talking about....

This one pours jet black in the glass with a nice chocolaty cream head.  Smells like bread baking in the over - maybe a dark rye or something similiar - yes with some whole walnuts too.  On the tongue, it is surprisingly light with some nice dark cherry sweetness.  Very crisp and clean finish - kinda like a pilsner. A wonderful beer that I need to get more of  - before the season is up!

2011 Murphy Goode Homefront Red

A Blustery Sunday out here on the West Cast.  Keeping warm with a Red Blend from the fine folks at the Murphy Goode Winery in Healdsburg.  The blend is called Homefront Red and is a blend of Zinfandel, Merlot, Petite Sirah , Petit Verdot, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon. The interesting thing about the wine is the fact that proceeds from the sale of the wine goes to Operation Homefront, which provides emergency financial and other assistance to the families of our service members and wounded warriors.

The wine pours a nice dark red, most likely due to the Petite Verdot and smells of Vanilla and Oak.  On the tongue more vanilla and sour cherry, plum and spice.  I have to admit that when I went to purchase the wine I was looking for either the Murphy Goode Pinot Noir or one of their Zinfandels (Liar's Dice or Snake Eyes).  This wine is very nice, but I'd not go back for another bottle as I'd select the Pinot Noir or one of the Zinfandels first.

Cheers,
Jerry
