See you Tomorrow for The Glens Falls Rotary Virtual Wine Tasting!
We can't wait to see you tomorrow at 7pm!
Great work Rotary! We have sold Mohan’s out of the Beaujolais!
Bob has recommended that 90+ Cellars Beaujolais (Lot 158) as an alternative. If you cannot find the 90+ Cellars, any Beaujolais will do!
Remember: Rosé & White should be served chilled 45° to 50°, Beaujolais @ 55° to 60° and Red Blend at 60° to 68° - slightly cooler than room temperature. Your refrigerator is at 40°, Freezer is at 32° and room temperature is 70°. (1 hour in freezer for White & Rosé, 50 min. for Beaujolais, 40 min. for Red Blend if you are in a rush.) It is best to have wines in the glasses by 7 pm.

A Reminder from your Sommelier!
Pairing Food with wine, makes the wine even more enjoyable. The food combination pairing of astringent wine with a particularly fatty cheese will heighten the sensory perception due to the opposing foods, creating a more balanced feeling within your palate.
Please feel free to choose from the list below, or choose another cheese you prefer:
For Rose: Monterey Jack, or any kind of Jack Cheese
For Chardonnay: Camembert or Brie
For Beaujolais: Rotisserie chicken, Brie, Monterey Jack, Comte
For Red Blend: Comte, Gruyere, Manchego, Cheddar
**Please note**We will also be pairing our wine with (Rotisserie) Chicken.
We have attached a picture below with the recommended cheeses and protein, you should be able to find them at your local supermarket. Kathy has purchased all of these pairings at Hannaford.
Above is a picture of the suggested pairings!
What wines will be featured in the tasting?
In case you need the list again, here are our Featured Wines for this tasting:
-Mulderbosch Rose from South Africa
-Bread and Butter Chardonnay from California
-Georges Duboeuf Beaujolais-Villages from France **or the 90+ Cellars Beaujolais, Lot 158**
-7 Moons Red Blend from California
You may buy the wine and pick it up from Mohan's, our contact there is ready and waiting to make sure you have what you need for this experience!
The total cost will be a little less than $50 at Mohan’s for all four. This is around the cost of dinner out for two, or a nice bottle of wine at a restaurant!
Kathy asks that you consider this an experiment – if you don’t like one of the wines, feel free to donate it to a friend!
If you prefer to buy just the whites or just the reds, please feel free to do that as well!
Remember, life is too short to drink wines you don't like!
