Welcome to Fall Flight Nights! 🍂🍷 Come out and see us in this beautiful cool weather for some fantastically fun chicken tapas paired with red wines! It’s an unexpectedly perfect marriage of tapas and wine, and we can’t wait to see what you think!

This Flight Night begins on Wednesday, October 16, and the wines and their tapas will be available through October 22nd.

First, SOHO will pour a CVNE Rioja Reserva 2014 from Rioja, Spain.  The winemaker offers,

“Medium intensity ruby in colour with a pink hint at the rim. The nose shows good aromatic intensity with aromas of fresh wild berries and liquorice which are typical of wines made from Tempranillo grapes. These are well integrated with the sweet spice aromas from the barrel ageing process. The palate is soft and marked by silky tannins and a long, fruity and youthful finish.”

Next, SOHO will pour a Nicolas Potel Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2017 from Burgundy, FR. The wine is described by the winemaker,

“Ruby and medium dark in color. This wine has a bouquet of red cherries, fern, white flowers and spices. On the palate fine toasted notes with honey give way to long lasting notes of black fruits. The tannins are silky and well balanced. The finish is beautiful and full.”

Finally, SOHO will pour a Concha Toro Cabernet 2017 from California. Notes on the wine,

“A taut, muscular red, with forest floor notes to the luscious dried berry and cherry tart flavors, accented by olive and tar notes. The juicy finish is filled with baker’s chocolate and white pepper details. Lithe and pure.”

SOHO’s Executive Chef Joey Zelinka has created a suggested tapa plate to pair with each of the wines!

For October, we’re turning Flight Night upside down! Rather than pair tapas to featured wines, we’re showing our guests how beef, chicken, pork, fish, and veggies can paired with different, unusual types of wine.  And this week: BEEF….It’s what’s for Flight Night! Let’s enjoy this fall weather (finally!) with some savory beef tapas & beautifully paired red wines. 🍷🍂 Sound good?

This Flight Night begins on Wednesday, October 9, and the wines and their tapas will be available through October 15th.

First, SOHO will pour a La Cartuja Priorat 2016 from Priorat, Spain.  The winemaker offers,

“Sexy, seductive bright, juicy cherry and blackberry notes are supported by lavender and hints of anise and peppery spice on the long finish.”

Next, SOHO will pour a Arrowood Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 from Alexander Valley. The wine is described by the winemaker,

“The 2016 Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is driven by blue fruit, with aromas of huckleberry and plum. This high-toned wine has savory qualities of baking chocolate and clove. Subtle underpinnings of violet and walnut come across the palate, along with an elegant structure and bright acidity.”

Finally, SOHO will pour a Annabella Red Blend 2017 from California. Notes on the wine,

“The 2017 Annabella red blend is bright and expressive right from the start. Aromas of raspberries, cocoa-dusted strawberries, and a hint of freshly roasted coffee leap from the glass. The mouth is jam packed with layers of extroverted flavors – raspberries, red cherry, and milk chocolate supported by structured oak and a well balanced acidity.”

This day, September 11th, is always a little different; a little harder than the rest of the year. We will enjoy Flight Night as always, but today we raise a glass to all those affected on 9/11, and the strength and commonality that makes us Americans. Let’s sip some wine, reflect, and be kind to ourselves and others!

This Flight Night begins on Wednesday, September 11th, and the wines and their tapas will be available through September 17th.

First, SOHO will pour a Eyrie Vineyard Rose of Pinot 2018 from Willamette Valley.  The winemaker offers,

“Not just another fruit bomb, the aromatics of this wine create an aromatic spectrum ranging from bright strawberries and pink grapefruit, to fresh turned loam and savory herbs. The palate is long and precise with a round, silky texture. The evolving finish compliments and echoes the primary fruit of the palate.”

Next, SOHO will pour a Angela Estate Pinot Noir 2014 from Yamhill-Carlton AVA. The wine is described by the winemaker,

“This vintage was drier and warmer than usual, resulting in large, ripe clusters and a lot of it. Yields were almost double in some cases, resulting in four to fve tons per acre! Harvest officially began in early September, nearly three weeks earlier than previous vintages with low bird effects and disease pressure. Pinots from 2014 will display pronounced aromas, deep color, ripe developed favors, with alcohols ranging from 13 – 14%.”

Finally, SOHO will pour a Del Rio Claret 2015 from Rogue Valley, Oregon. Notes on the wine,

“Complex and rich, with deep flavors of red raspberry and ripe strawberry flavors, with herbal elements of thyme and rosemary. Framed with toasty oak notes and balanced tannins that provide structure for this rich and elegant blend. Intricately designed for enjoyment now or to be cellared for aging.”
