Saturday Tasting

Saturday Tasting: SATURDAY TASTING OF RHONE WINES FROM WINEBOW DISTRIBUTORS: 1-5PM

Posted by Admin on Feb 20, 2010 - 01:14 PM

Chateau De Montfaucon

I know some of you were disappointed we sold out of the Chapelle St. Arnoux Vacqueyras in half a day. We will be getting more in on March 8. (Please make sure to pre order as we will probably sell out of the wines before we get them in.)

Since those wines did not make it through the weekend. We have set up a phenomenal tasting with the Chateau De Montfaucon Vineyard 2007 Rhone Wines. We will be holding the tasting . . .
Today Saturday February 20, 2010 1- 5 pm with Winebow Importers.

Most of you have bought the Chateau De Montfaucon Les Gardettes 2007 wine (We cant keep it in stock) and many of you have had the Chateau De Montfaucon Cotes Du Rhone 2007 but none of you have tried the special Chateau De Montfaucon Vin de Monsieur Le Baron de Montfaucon. This wine was rated 92 points by Robert Parker but the best and special part of this wine is that it has 15 different grape varietals . . . yes 15 different grape varietals (Red grape varieties: Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, Carignan, Counoise, Mourvedre, Muscat, Aubun, Alicante, Tempranille. White grape varieties: Viognier, Marsanne, Clairette, Bourboulenc, Picpoul) and they only make 500 cases of this wine and we were lucky enough to get some. So come on in and try these great wines from the Chateau De Montfaucon Estates the great and historic 2007 Rhone Valley Vintage.

Dont Miss Out! Tasting will be held Today, Saturday February 20, 2010 1-5 pm
ONLY AT PEARSON'S . . . OF COURSE!

CHATEAU DE MONTFAUCON

Chateau de Montfaucon a small vineyard right across the river from Chateauneuf du Pape is quickly becoming a rising star and brings you a great wine from the heart of Rhone Valley. The wine producer Rodolphe de Pins named the Chateau after the two towers which protect the entry to the vineyard. . . .

CHATEAU DE MONTFAUCON LES GARDETTES 2007
With notes of Cherries and Raspberries and grape varitals of 50% Syrah, 15% Carignan, 15% Cinsault, 10% Mourvedre and 10% Grenache you get complexity in the wine but you also get elegance and finesse as it has good body and tannin structure. This is a great everyday wine . . . great to have with friends, great with dinner and for under $9 a superior value.
Wine Spectator 88 points: "Nice elegant style, with a sandalwood note weaving through the red cherry and currant fruit, backed by mineral and garriguehints on the finish. Syrah, Cinsault, Carignan, Mourvedre and Grenache."

CHATEAU DE MONTFAUCON COTES DU RHONE 2007
Cotes Du Rhone 2007 The Cotes du Rhone is a classic of Montfaucon. The focus is to express with finesse and elegance the intense fruit characteristics that Cotes du Rhone terroir can offer. 50 % Grenache, 15% Cinsault, 15% Syrah, 10% Carignan, 10% Counoise. Wine from old vines (over 40 years) with selection of parcels that have a maximum yield of 38 hl/ha.
Winery Notes: "Behind the purple colour opens a nose with intense notes of red fruits, cherries, blueberries and blackberries followed ny notes of chocolate and pepper. The wine is full, elegant and round. Yet rich it is not heavy. If you keep some bottles in your cellar, you will be surprised by the aging potential of the wine; it developpes aromas and finesse that are amazingly similar to some Burgundy wines."

CHATEAU DE MONTFAUCON "VIN DE MONSIEUR LE BARON DE MONTFAUCON" VIN DE PAYS DU GARD 2007
Everyone from Robert Parker to Wine Spectator are raving about this wine. Because of it's limited production, there is very little to go around. At this price, it's an excellent buy for Rhone collectors or all of you looking to get in on some of the red hot 2007 Rhones!

This old magnificent label from the 1820s is great, great, grand father, Baron Eugene de Montfaucon, with all the history that was behind Montfaucon wines. In order to make a wine in the spirit of those days nearly 200 years ago, they fermented together all the grapes we have on the estate, 15 in total. The wine is racked straight into barrels after fermentation, as they did in the old days. This wine, unique in its style, is all in finesse, fruit, flower and elegance. It is in its own world, out of this time. It will seduce wine lovers, connoisseurs and collectors. Just take a look at the 15 grape varietals in the wine: Red grape varieties: Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, Carignan, Counoise, Mourvedre, Muscat, Aubun, Alicante, Tempranille. White grape varieties: Viognier, Marsanne, Clairette, Bourboulenc, Picpoul.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 92 points: "The 2007 Vin de Pays Le Baron de Montfaucon is a 500-case cuvee made from an unusual combination of 15 different grapes that are all co-fermented together. Aged in 100% old barrels, this outstanding wine's dense ruby/purple color is followed by exotic notes of honeysuckle, marmalade, red currants, black currants, blackberries, licorice, loamy soil, and tobacco leaf. Singular in style and seriously endowed, it can be drunk now or cellared for 5-7 years."
