Wine of the Week 10/04/2022

Early Mountain Young Red
Regularly $19.99/On sale for $15.96
(96% Chambourcin, 4% Vidal Blanc)

The Young wines from Early Mountain are intended as a way to focus on hybrid grapes, low intervention winemaking (Low sulphur, native yeast), and easy going, extremely drinkable wines. We can attest that they are extremely drinkable! These wines are also meant to promote hybrid grapes as a path forward to more sustainable winegrowing in our region. Valley fruit is used here in order to get vibrant acidity and 4% skin contact Vidal Blanc is blended in to boost the wine's tannic structure a bit. The result is a juicy, food friendly red. Make sure to set a few extra bottles aside and serve them with a chill alongside all the harvest/fall/Thanksgiving meals to come!
