First, SOHO will pour a 2013 Santa Julia Reserva Malbec from Mendoza, Argentina. The winemaker says of the wine, “Medium bodied, with soft tannins and balanced acidity. Fruity and spicy finish.”

Next, SOHO will pour a 2011 Zuccardi Q Tempranillo from Mendoza, Argentina. The winemaker offers the following tasting notes: “Intense red ruby color. Ripe fruits like figs, cherries, plums, integrated with spicy aromas due to the oak aging. Soft entry with firm tannins and balanced acidity. Persistent finish.”

Finally, SOHO will pour a 2011 Nieto Senetiner Terroir Blend Malbec from Mendoza, Argentina. International Wine Cellar says “Bright ruby-red. Slightly tanky on the nose, but with enticing violet lift to the aromas of blackberry, cassis and bitter chocolate. Not especially complex but boasts good intensity and volume, and more sweetness than the more expensive 2011 Don Nicanor bottling. Finishes with gentle, ripe tannins and good length.”

SOHO’s executive chef, Scott Warren, and sous chef, Chris Lyons, have created a tapas plate to pair with each South American wine.

2013 Santa Julia Reserva Malbec
100% Malbec
Paired with: Spiced Bison sliders with melted Gruyere and blackberry ketchup

2011 Zuccardi Q Tempranillo
100% Tempranillo
Paired with: Braised veal shank with fig jam, golden tomatoes and roasted broccolini

2011 Nieto Senetiner Terroir Blend Malbec
100% Malbec
Paired with: House-made spinach and ricotta ravioli with grilled vegetable marinara and shaved Pecorino

Sample each wine in a flight (three three-ounce glasses) for $14.25. Or, pair the flight with a tapas plate for $19. Try a full glass of wine and tapas plate for $13. Of course, the wines and tapas are available individually as well ($9.50/glass and $6.50/tapas). See you soon!

First, SOHO will pour a 2013 Catena Chardonnay from Mendoza, Argentina. The winemaker describes the wine and vineyards, “A blend of three vineyards. The vineyards are divided into lots that are harvested at different times. Agrelo (3,117 ft elevation): citrus and peach fruit flavors. Villa Bastías (3,675 ft elevation): Stone fruit aromas and a rich texture. Gualtallary (4,757 ft elevation): lively floral notes, strong mineral character and cool climate bright acidity.”

Next, SOHO will pour a 2011 Finca Decero Mini Ediciones Petit Verdot from Mendoza, Argentina. The winemaker offers the following tasting note, “Petit Verdot forms part of our icon blend and each year we select a few exceptional parcels to make a ‘mini edición’. The 2011 vintage is particularly rich in wild blueberry flavors and the jasmine aromas which are consistent in this wine.”

Finally, SOHO will pour a 2011 Piattelli Grand Reserve Malbec, Lujan de Cuyo, Mendoza, Argentina. The winemaker says of the wine, “A rich and fragrant wine with a deep purple hue. It envelops the senses with an exquisite bouquet of sweet and spicy plum, blossoms in the glass to reveal notes of tea leaves and cassis, lingers on the palate with a moderate tannin pull, and finishes with understated-yet-resonant oak.”

SOHO’s executive chef, Scott Warren, and sous chef, Chris Lyons, have created a tapas plate to pair with each South American wine.

First, SOHO will pour a 2013 Montes Alpha Chardonnay from Casablanca Valley, Chile. The winemaker says of the wine, “Very distinguished golden color. The nose offers outstanding notes of ripe tropical fruits, “golden berries,” bananas, peaches, apricots and grapefruit, along with the asparagus notes that are characteristic of Chardonnay from Casablanca. Its 10 months in contact with French oak also confers elegant notes of toast and vanilla and heightens the lactic notes of butter and toffee. The palate is fresh with pleasing acidity, medium volume, and a long and very pleasing finish.”

Next, SOHO will pour a 2013 Casas del Bosque Carmenere from Rapel Valley, Chile. The winemaker offers the following tasting notes, “Intensely violet in color, on the nose this wine exhibits heady notes of cedar, bacon fat, and graphite with just a hint of fresh lavender. In the mouth, an initial attack of black cherry, sweet tobacco and cinnamon gives way to just a touch of earthiness and ripe bell pepper. Ripe tannins and fresh acidity combine to give good balance and length.”

Finally, SOHO will pour a 2012 Terrazas de los Andes Reserva Malbec from Mendoza, Argentina. The winemaker notes, “The aroma is very expressive, revealing a floral and red fruit profile of violet, raspberry and cherry, with marked aromas of toasted coffee and chocolate. On the palate, the wine is characterized by a broad and sweet mouthfeel and delicate tannins.”

SOHO’s executive chef, Scott Warren, and sous chef, Chris Lyons, have created a tapas plate to pair with each South American wine.

2013 Montes Alpha Chardonnay
100% Chardonnay
Paired with: Lump crab gratin, herbs & citrus

2013 Casas del Bosque Carmenere
100% Carmenere
Paired with: Bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin, mustard shallot vinaigrette

2012 Terrazas del los Andes Reserva Malbec
100% Malbec
Paired with: Herb-roasted lamb loin, port reduction and gremolata

432px-South_America_-_Blue_Marble_orthographicFirst, SOHO will pour a 2014 Colomé Torrontés from Salta Province, Argentina. The winemaker says of the wine, “A golden color with tinges of green greet the glass, followed by distinct aromas of fresh flowers offset by notable citrus notes led by grapefruit, lime zest and lively spices.

Next, SOHO will pour a 2012 Alma Negra “M Blend” from Mendoza, Argentina. The winemaker offers the following tasting notes, “Dark berryfruit, dried cherries and hints of chocolate on the nose lead to flavors of ripe berries, black cherry, cocoa and a tinge of smoke in this dense and well-balanced wine. The finish lingers with dark ripe fruit, balanced acidity and a smooth mouthfeel.”

Finally, SOHO will pour a 2008 Haras de Pirque Haras Character Red Blend from Maipo Valley, Chile. The tasting notes for the blend state, “Deep purple color. Aromatic in the nose, natural herbs and spiciness dominating the fresh flavor of this wine. Typical notes of upper Maipo Valley distinguish this blend with tobacco, earthiness and mineral notes. Complex, elegant and long-lasting in the palate.
