2022 WHITE BURGUNDIES HAVE LANDED

ABOUT THE VINTAGE

Wine Spectator
Drink or hold. Abundant rain in June led to a hot, dry summer, yielding a healthy, good-sized crop and fresh, balanced whites

Jancis Robinson
This vintage more than delivered on quality and sorely needed quantity (75.4% more wine produced overall than in 2021). The growing season was incredibly hot but, due to large volumes of precipitation in June, vines weathered the summer well. Wines are admirably fresh but without the same concentration as in 2019 and 2020 and without the austerity of 2021. Approachable now with medium term aging potential for the best wines.

Wine Scholar Guild
Drink or Hold. Winter 2021-2022 was a dry one in Chablis, with just 130 mm between November and the end of February: less than half the normal total of 300 mm. It was also mild, and the buds began to move early, at the end of March. Frost followed in early April with sporadic losses throughout the vines; the vines recovered well, though, with even secondary Chardonnay buds setting fruit this year. Flowering, between mid-May and end-May, was early and successful. After that, summer was propitious: a hot June with ample rain which sent vegetative growth surging, then a hot though much dryer July, with just one rain episode. August continued hot, with two episodes of rain, so the vines were comfortable throughout – and an early harvest followed from the end of August, with most of the wines snug in their vats by mid-September. The wines are fresh, lively, juicy and enticing, with ample youthful charm. They have the constitution to be aged too, and the best are intense, powerful and complete but not overblown.

Under Italian law, vermouth is a product made up of at least 75% wine, fortified and infused with a variety of herbs, botanicals, and spices.

Each Italian vermouth is unique in its exact blend of wine and botanicals.

2019 STAR LANE CABERNET - SPECIAL OFFER

2019 Star Lane Cabernet Sauvignon Happy Canyon Santa Barbara County

We have a SCREAMING DEAL on this amazing Cabernet Sauvignon. We have tasted it and the wine rivals $100 Plus Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa any day.

The lowest wine-searcher price is $64.99. You can buy one bottle for just $44.99 or three or more bottles for $39.99.

Expected arrival is Friday, March 29, 2024. CLICK HERE (https://square.link/u/4ILNJJRo) to purchase.

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon (100% Cabernet Sauvignon) sports a deeper ruby/plum color to go with classic Santa Barbara County Cabernet notes of red and black fruits, sage, green cedar, and hints of to***co. Medium-bodied on the palate, the texture is spot-on, and it has silky tannins and perfect balance. It's a terrific example of the quality coming from this region with regard to Bordeaux varieties, and it will drink well for 10-15 years.

DAMP JANUARY?

Damp January is our take on Dry January.

A simple Google search for "What do people do during Dry January" returned the following result:

"Immerse yourself in art

Instead of a night out at the bar, research shows that a night out at the local art museum can help reduce stress, bolster happiness, and foster community. You could also visit a local art gallery opening, or take a stroll to admire local street art while engaging in discussion."

Or you could do all that, wine in moderation, and live your life to the fullest. So for January, we are offering one wine daily at 15% off our retail price. Wines offered are available for purchase all month or till inventory is depleted.

Our first four wines for Damp January are:
- 2021 Roman Ceremony Cabernet by Railsback Freres Santa Ynez Valley
- 2019 Paul Lato Strawberry Hills Grenache Portico Hills Santa Barbara County
- 2018 Ferguson Crest Private Reserve Syrah Santa Ynez Valley
- 2018 Weingut Schauer Südsteiermark Sauvignon Blanc Kitzeck Germany

Pairing Wine with Oysters

Oysters on the half-shell pair well with more than just Champagne.

On Saturday, January 13 Margot from Flying Colors is back with an oyster tasting paired with wines other than the predictable lineup of sparkling wines. We will pour six one-ounce tastes of the following wines:

- Armenian Sparkling to kick off the tasting. This is to celebrate Margot’s Armenian heritage.
- Classic French Muscadet
- Spanish Albarino
- Dry German riesling
- French Chablis
- Domestic Chardonnay

Margot will also answer any questions you have about growing and harvesting oysters.

WHEN: Saturday, January 13, 2024
WHERE: WineSneak San Luis Obispo
TIME: 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM

$35 per person. LIMITED SEATING.
