Late Hrvest Wines

Q- Are late-harvest wines always sweet? : A: Although late-harvest wines are traditionally sweet, in recent years the grapes for some dry Italian whites, for example Verdicchio, are being harvested from two to four weeks later than usual. Why? In order to achieve more powerful, structured wines. Harvesting for dry wines normally takes place when the producer decides that sugar and acidity in the grapes is properly balanced. If the winemaker postpones the harvest, sugar increases. Harvesting late produces a fatter, more sugary wine richer in alcohol. It is more sumptuous and substantial. To produce a dry late-harvest wine, fermentation must continue until all the sugar has been used up. If the wine is high in acidity, then the result can be balanced, elegant, concentrated and well structured.

Wines Worth Aging

Why age wines? The answer is simple: Great wines develop over time, trading youthful vivacity and fresh, primary fruit flavors for aromatic depth and layered subtle complexity.
Plus some top wines,such as Cabernets, Barolos or first growth Bordeaux, can be so aggressively tannic when they're young that they require aging.

It has truley become what I invisioned as a adult happy hour. Tommorrows wines are mostly German Veltliners from an importer named William Harrison. We'll also be tasting a Pinot Noir From Burgundy. Jerome Crawford will be joining us from Grassroots Wholesale. Jerome is one of the most knowlegable people I know in regards to German and Italian wines. It will be a pleasure to spend time with him. For the second week in a row we will have live music, this weeks entertainment will come by way of The Robert Orr Trio ! Robert's blend of Smooth Jazz will be the finishing touch to a night of great food, great wines and great company. Please Join us Tuesday night this summer for Tapas Tuesday's
