The Wake Up Call with Scotch and Mandy

Haily Sundet, our Froggy Wine Specialist, of Republic National Distributing is back with another episode of Wine Wednesday.  Wine Wednesday is sponsored by Bottle Barn Liquors, with 3 Fargo locations. 

This week's wine: Trimbach Riesling

Winemaker Notes

This is the very definition of the Alsace Riesling, well anchored in the dry and balanced Trimbach style. It shines with its elegant liveliness, crunchiness and notes of white flowers and citrus fruits leading to a minerally finish.

It is the perfect accompaniment to seafood, marinated or grilled fish, salads, goat cheese, spring vegetables as well as all white meats.

This week's wine: Hickinbotham Trueman Cabernet Sauvignon 

Wine Notes: Cabernet Sauvignon grows in ideal conditions on the Hickinbotham Vineyard thanks to the combined influence of elevation, aspect, prevailing winds, weather and ancient soils. The ability to consistently retain expressive and fragrant aromas and obtain deep tannin ripeness with concentrated fresh flavors makes Trueman one of the estate’s most highly regarded wines. Trueman evokes aromas of ripe blackberries and bittersweet chocolate with hints of rose petal and wild sage. This transitions to an impeccably balanced palate with black plum notes and a fresh acidity interlaced with velvety tannins leading to a long memorable finish.

Blend: 97% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Malbec
