Flight Night fans, you’re in for a treat!🍷🍷🍷 We’ve got 3 Napa reds that will knock your socks off, & take a look at these amazing tapa pairings! 👀

Reservations can be made here: http://ow.ly/mhLG50A4mCn, and are appreciated.

First, SOHO will pour a Blackbird Vineyards “Arriviste” Rose 2019.  The winemaker offers,

“The 2019 Arriviste captures the vintage’s outstanding growing conditions in a mouth-watering package: a Cabernet, Merlot, and Cab Franc saignee blend with dark peach color and striking aromas of cherry, violet, iris and Oolong tea. Flavors of cherry, nectarine, blackberry, and grapefruit combine for a rich, full-flavored rosé with balanced acidity. Finishes long and silky with plum, black currant, raspberry, and pineapple.”

The second wine is a Napa by N.A.P.A. Pinot Noir 2017. The wine is described by the winemaker,

“Dominated elegant red fruits including raspberry and strawberry, crisp acidity and richness from Pinot Meunier and color, tannin and dark fruit flavors from a touch of Syrah. These Napa Valley varietals were fermented and aged separately in a combination of new French and 2nd vintage French and American oak barrels. The soft tannins and hint of sweet oak spice make this an unusually versatile red wine.”

Finally, SOHO will pour a Andronicus Red Wine 2018. Notes on the wine,

The 2018 Andronicus shows off the spirit of the classic “Bordeaux Blend.” Exhibiting aromas of red currant, spice, sage and vanilla custard. Rich with Cabernet Sauvignon the 2018 blend brings out a deep and characteristic mouthfeel. It shows flavors of plum, brandied cherries, fig and Asian five spice while the finish is rounded out with hints of coco power and mocha.”

It’s safe to say that at this point in the year, (due to COVID) that we’re all REALLY looking forward to our next vacation. Hands up if you’d hop on a plane ASAP to hit Napa for the weekend?!

First, SOHO will pour a The Calling Pinot Noir 2018 from Monterey County.  The winemaker offers,

“Candied Bing cherry and fresh hibiscus aromas make this an immediately likable bottling by Jim Nantz and his team, while the star anise, gingerbread and sweet herb aromas add complexity. The palate is lively and fresh with more red fruit and flowers as well as cinnamon and wild chaparral spices, leading into a eucalyptus-oil-kissed finish.”

Next, SOHO will pour a Tablas Creek Patelin de Tables 2016 from Paso Robles. The wine is described by the winemaker,

“The 2016 Patelin de Tablas has a darkly fruity, Syrah-driven nose of black cherry, blackberry, pepper spice, meat drippings, and pipe tobacco, with a little sweet anise spice providing lift. The mouth shows a balance of fruitier and more savory notes, with cool, minty, cherry skin flavors and notes of pine forest and wood smoke that emerge with air.”

Finally, SOHO will pour a Daou Cabernet 2018 from Paso Robles. Notes on the wine,

“… currant, black cherry, cedar and eucalyptus, and displays undertones of briary blackberry and wet gravel. Ancillary aromas of coffee and cocoa are rounded out nicely with notes of crushed sage and baking spice. Finish is surprisingly elegant for a wine of such power. Silky and smooth, ending on lovely notes of sweet cherry and boysenberry.”
