Tasting Notes: “The nose is layered, integrated, and very balanced. The alcohol is basically nonexistent in the nose! Aromatically, this is equally focused on the wood and the spice. Leading with creamy caramel and spiced citrus oil, additional notes of nougat, orange rind, mahogany, vanilla, baking spice, and a subtle nutty component add depth and complexity. On the palate, citrus oil and spice hit first with waves of rich wood notes filling the midpalate. The finish is long and spicy.”

There is no question to the inherent quality in the wines.

Speaking of our expanding Natural Wine selections, this is absolutely outstanding. Made with two odd ball grapes (80% Louise Swenson; 20% Itasca) grown in Vermont, the fruit is amazingly purity and vibrancy with oak playing an underlying roll that adds texture and subtle flavor. From the melon and stone fruits to soft mineral edge, the flavors pop with precision. I think this is an amazing bottle of wine that just happens to be from Vermont. This is amazing bottle of wine from anywhere. 100% worth your time and $$$!!

Over the last 5 years, the term Natural wine or ‘Natty’ wine has been discussed a lot in the wine world. What does Natural mean? Aren’t all wines natural? Does that mean Organic? Does that mean no sulfites?

Natural wine means a whole lot of things and we are here to breakdown the basics and taste some excellent examples! While we 100% believe in Natural wine, they can come in a lot of different sizes and shapes. Here at Town, we love when there is a beautiful intersect between Natural and quality winemaking. In our eyes, at times, there are flaws in Natural wines that shouldn’t be there.

We continue to expand our Natural wine offers as we find things we love!

While this might look like a random photo of Champagne, this Sebastian Girost Brut is a near perfect fall champagne with excellent weight and concentration, orchard fruits galore, a soft approachable feel and a surprising pop of acidity. At $45.99, this is not only delicious but it also represents amazing value.

Our biggest event of the year is just a month away! Thursday, October 10th! We are beyond excited to be announcing Wines of Italy Feature Tasting.

This year, we will be showcasing a ton of new wines and likely a handful of old favorites. We have already been putting in the work by tasting a wide range of wines to showcase in the line-up of 35 wines. Italy is always one of the most difficult line-ups to settle on as both the diversity and quality is immense. With cases of wines yet to be sampled, we could already put on a fantastic tasting with showstoppers and everyday gems. Once we finish, we are promising a program for the ages.

For those that are new to our events, the basics are simple. Come and sample a wide range of wines from Tuesday Night wines to high-end cellar worth bottles. Not only are these events intended to be focused on discovery and evaluation, they are also intended to be a ton of fun! We encourage guests to experience both the wines they think they’ll love and also the wines that are less known. You never know what new favorite you’ll discover.

All the Important Details:

When: Thursday, October 10th, 2024 - 6 pm to 8 pm

Where: Agawam Hunt, 15 Roger Williams Ave, Rumford, RI 02916

Cost: $65 per person all inclusive, Tickets must be purchased ahead of the event. The final day to purchase tickets will be Monday, October 7th, 2024

We are wildly excited for the newest single malt to hit our whisky shelves! The Nc’nean is a wonderful distillery with a focus on making delicious whiskies and making them in a way that’s good for the planet. Organic. Sustainable. B Corp certified. Delicious.

Town’s Tasting Notes for the Organic Single Malt: “The nose leads with a wide range of orchard fruits with juicy sweet peaches and apricots adding a lush pop of fuller fruit. There is a wonderful elegant pure malt note that brings the spirit into focus. Touches of white flowers and subtle spice layer in aromatic complexity. On the palate, there is a omnipresent soft sweetness that is undeniably delicious. It is hard not to think about candied ginger. This is so easy to drink. It’s delicate and elegant with an almost airy feel. Yet it has surprising weight on the palate that easily coats the palate. This a flat out delicious single malt.”

‘Say What?!?’

At this week’s Thursday’s Night Tasting, we are pouring 5 wines either made from odd ball varietals or from unexpected places! While we all tend to focus on the obvious wines and regions, the wine world is massive with so many exciting wines out on the edges. Be it a varietal like Hondarrabi Zuri or an AVA like Lehigh Valley, the wine world is full of intriguing surprises!

This week’s ‘Say What?!?’ line-up is exactly the reason we host our Thursday Night Tastings. We understand that taking a chance on a Gruner from Pennsylvania isn’t the easiest step for many wine drinkers! The opportunity to learn about and taste this wines before buying them is one everyone should be taking advantage of.

While the names and places are, ahh, interesting, the wines themselves are eye openingly delicious!
