Thank you so much for your continued support of SOHO American Bistro. We are so happy to serve you, our loyal friends and patrons, for over 23 years. We are also excited about the new friends we make as people hear about us through your kind words and recommendations.

During these complex times we wanted to assure you we are observing the highest standards for sanitation and cleanliness. We are going the extra mile to assure a safe and healthful environment. Please see some of the efforts that help us stand out in the neighborhood.

•Our entire staff is back in masks. We enjoyed the break but current conditions warrant the extra step.

•We sanitize every table in between use with disposable table wipes designed specifically for the purpose.

•We have increased outdoor seating to accommodate those wanting fresh air. We will start taking limited reservations on the patio beginning in September—these will NOT be available on OpenTable. You must speak with a host or manager as we are limiting our reservations outside.

•Weather permitting, we will open the Paces room to invite the fresh air into our dining room.

•We have a service coming through and sanitizing our entire environment throughout the week.

Please let us know if you have any concerns. We appreciate your feedback and trust. We will continue to update all of our practices based on the National Restaurant Association’s “best practices.”

Warmly,

The SOHO Management & Team

Oh Italy, how we love you!  If you’ve never actually been, aren’t you still in love with the IDEA of Italy? We think so, and for good reason!  The wine, the food, the views; it’s tough to pick just one thing to nurture your crush of Italy.  So we won’t ask you to choose.  We’ll just hand you food and wine pairings for the entire month of February!  Saluti!

This week’s Flight Night begins on Wednesday February 8th, and the wines and their tapas will be available through February 14th.

First, SOHO will pour a Cecchi Morelinno di Scansano “La Mora” 2013 DOCG from Tuscany, and offers the following tasting notes,

“Color: Ruby red with intense purple reflections.  Aroma: Bright fruit aromas of raspberry, blackberry and spice.  Taste: A modern interpretation of Sangiovese, this wine’s flavors mimic its aroma, with a soft but persistent feel.”

Next, SOHO will pour a Recchia Le Muraie Ripasso Classico Superior 2013 DOC from Veneto.  The wine is described as,

“Deep ruby red.  Intense bouquet of fruit, jam and Mediterranean spices.  A harmonic full-bodied taste that lingers on the palate.”

Finally, SOHO will pour a Frescobaldi Terre More 2013 DOC from Maremma, Toscana.  The winemaker says,

“Terre More 2013 is an intense ruby-red with purplish highlights. Very intense notes of cherry, plum and black currant, organic notes of coffee and preserved licorice, followed by fresh eucalyptus. Characteristic velvety tannins, the finish is a kaleidoscope of olfactory sensations.”

While many think of February as the month of hearts and love, is there a better way to celebrate than with the love of wine?  We don’t think so!  Our love of wine is highlighted this month with one of our very favorite regions: Italy!  Our Italian love affair shows in this month’s wines and tapas, and we hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

This week’s Flight Night begins on Wednesday February 1st, and the wines and their tapas will be available through February 7th.

First, SOHO will pour a 2015 G. D. Vajra Dolcetto D’Alba from Piedmont, Italy, and offers the following tasting notes,

“Brilliant purple color. Small red fruits, sour cherry, violet and hay: an aromatic range that reminds of summer walks in the mountains… and exciting vinosity that reigns in the cellar in September.  Soft, open in the mouth and balanced, it has delicate tannins accompanied by fresh acidity.”

Next, SOHO will pour a 2013 DiGiovanna Siciliani Rosso from Sicily.  The wine is described as,

“Deep red in color with shades of violet. Plush nose, black cherry and blueberries, a hint of bitter chocolate and impressive palate for this great food wine.”

Finally, SOHO will pour a 2012 Mazzei Chianti Classico Riserva Ser Lapo from Chianti Classico, Italy.  The winemaker says,

“Bright acid structure providing a lively quality. Cranberry, raspberry and red cherry dominate with hints of leather, cedar and cocoa powder. Some earthiness in the finish and ripe soft tannins.”

Finally, SOHO will pour a 2014 Pascal Toso Malbec Reserve from Maipú, Mendoza.  The winemaker says,

It’s finally cold in Atlanta, (just in time for Christmas) and many of us are drinking delicious reds, eating richer dishes, and generally enjoying the beauty of the season.  This is an amazing time at SOHO, as we get to reflect on our wonderful year, and begin to make new plans for wine and cuisine in 2017.

As we roll through December, we bring back the most popular wines of the year to make their final showing!  This week’s Flight Night begins on Wednesday December 21st, and the wines and their tapas will be available through December 27th.

First, SOHO will pour a 2010 L’ Arco Rosso del Veronese, from Rosso del Veronese IGT, and offers the following tasting notes,

“This medium bodied red is laced with dark cherries, tobacco and a hint of lavender supported by gripping tannins and a lengthy finish.”

Next, SOHO will pour a 2007 Bodegas Palacio Especial Reserva from Rioja, Spain.  The wine is described as,

“Color: Deep ruby red. Aroma: Complex combination of ripe fruit and well integrated oak. Taste: Rich and smooth with great length and finesse.”

Finally, SOHO will pour a 2013 Trig Point Diamond Dust Merlot from Alexander Valley.  The winemaker says,

“The Diamond Dust Vineyard, located just north of Healdsburg, produces marvelously rich and supple Merlot. The micro climate is of critical importance. Summer mornings are usually foggy and very cool but warm sunshine follows and mid-90’s temperatures are common in the afternoons. Most evenings the fog rolls in again and the vineyards cool down to the mid-40s.”

SOHO’s Executive Chef, Jeff Sigler, has created a suggested tapa plate to pair with each of the wines!

2010 L’ Arco Rosso del Veronese

“A bit darker, Medium ruby to red. The nose is of fresh red Oregon fruits & berries, a cherry aromatic is supported by more cola spice and a touch of subtle oak. This is a finesse styled Beaux Freres. Medium bodied with light-sweet tannins, very good purity and depth.  The texture here is beguiling as well.”

Next, SOHO will pour a 2013 Cloisonne Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley.  The wine is described as,

“A complex wine with layers of deep black fruits. Deep aromas of black cherry, cassis, black tea, cedar, cigar box, and cocoa. Long finish with baking spices on the palate. Gripping tannins that add structure and weight to this special wine. Aged for 27 months using 100% French oak to create a masterpiece.”

pnw-wines

First, SOHO will pour a 2013 Van Duzer Pinot Noir from Willamette Valley.  The winemaker offers the following tasting notes,

“This wine represents the core of our production. Aromas of Bing cherries, wild strawberries and layers of stewed plums harmonize with white peppercorn, bourbon, vanilla and hints of roasted almonds. Floral notes of lilac and rose petals compliment the subtle fragrance of butterscotch. A savory attack leads into a bright, acid-driven mid palate.”

Next, SOHO will pour a 2013 Three Rivers Winery Red Blend from Piedmont.  The wine is described as,

“.. The dominance of Sangiovese creates structure and complexity, while the Malbec, Merlot, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon provide balance to the wine and add savory notes to this blend. This medium bodied wine is filled with aromas and flavors of strawberry, cherry, raspberry, and finishes with a touch of cedar.”

Finally, SOHO will pour a 2013 Mercer Estate Cabernet from Horse Heaven Hills. The winemaker says,

“Aromas of blueberry, dark plum, and blackberry jam are elevated with hints of tobacco, caramel, and sweet vanilla.  The lush fruit continues in the palate with a nice lift of mint. The well integrated oak and sleek tannins lead into a velvety finish with a nice touch of acidity on the end. This wine is a lovely balance of power and grace.”

SOHO’s Executive Chef, Jeff Sigler, has created tapas plates for each of the wines!
