  • July Indulgence—Wine Notes
    Indulgence—NWCG Wine Club July Indulgence—Wine Notes For the Super Value 3 Pack this month, you have a perennial favorite with the Sasha Lachine’s 2020 Rosé, which is a classic French St. Tropez style—crisp and clean with a touch of citrus on the finish and loads of berry on the front. He works in a traditional style but speaks to a contemporary palate. For the white, I want something for this weekend’s afternoon celebrations, and the 2020 Jordan Feline’s Picpoul hits the spot. Ms. Claude Jourdan tends the vines and makes the wines at her family estate in the Picpoul area near Mèze on the Mediterranean coast, halfway between Marseille and the Spanish frontier. From the winery and vineyards you can see the oyster beds in the shallow Mediterranean a few hundred meters away. This domaine-bottled version is a big step up from the cooperatives in the area, since the Jourdan family takes great care to limit yields and create the best Picpoul you can buy. This wine has won many awards in France and abroad. Bright, citrusy, yet mouth-fillingly rich, this wine has a great finish. For the red, I went somewhere warm, Sicily, for a wine with impact of flavor, but a style that can handle a chill. The 2019 Bacaro Nero D’Avola is perfect for a wide variety of foods. On the nose, fruity aromas with hints of thyme and rosemary. On the palate, ripe blackberry fruits, prunes and a little note of licorice and pepper, with firm tannins and medium acidity.
