The 4th annual wine tasting event highlighted 10 boutique Sonoma County wineries. The sold out event was a perfect opportunity to taste small lot, artisanal wines.
A highlight for me was Cologrossi Winery...they were pouring tasty wine and the wine maker is Mike a super cool friend I've known for ages.
I have to give Mike a high-five for crafting well-balanced, enjoyable wine. I really loved the 2012 Gli Amici, a Cab Franc - I love its gentle pepper flavor touched by a violet aroma (and flavor). BUT the 2012 Duetto Pinot Noir was amaz - in my opinion a perfect medium bodied wine with a red berry palette and a smooth finish. I opened a bottle of the Gli Amici with some friends last night and it was a star. We munched on local sour dough and Mt. Tam triple cream from Cow Girl Creamery (and danced a little to MJ). My kind of night.
