The Wine Aroma Coaster
Welcome our new “Wine Aroma Coaster”
We’re thrilled to share that the Wine Aroma Coaster is officially live! This versatile tool enhances your wine-tasting experience in so many ways.
Here are five creative ways to use it:
1. Take it to wineries – This coaster helps you identify flavors and aromas, making your tastings more insightful. Ever loved a wine but couldn’t pinpoint why? The coaster helps you define what you enjoy, refining your unique tasting profile.
2. The perfect host gift – Pair it with a bottle of wine for a unique and thoughtful gift!
3. A dinner party icebreaker – Bring a pack (or two) and watch guests geek out over wine! It sparks conversation and is a fun way to engage, especially with new friends.
4. Build confidence in talking about wine – Understanding your favorite flavors to get out of wine (for example: rose, earthiness, and developed red fruits in a Pinot Noir, for me) makes you a more informed shopper at boutique wine stores or wineries.
5. Elevate your tasting experience anywhere – Whether at a picnic, winery, or on vacation, this compact, easy-to-use tool fits right in your bag and enhances every sip.
Now available in packs of 10 (color or black & white) on Amazon!
Wholesale pricing is available for events, tasting rooms, and more—email us for details.
Cheers!
Red Wine Season
Here’s what we are crushing on this holiday season:
1- Occidental Bodega Ridge Vineyard Pinot Noir
2- Hosting a holiday party? Have guests choose from a variety of different colored ribbon and tie a bow around their wine glass to keep tabs on their drink, plus it looks cute.
3- Obviously, listening to Kendrick’s latest album, GNX while sipping on some California red wine (love the Margerum M5 for a local, great value Rhone inspired blend)
4- Homemade cinnamon rolls paired with Champagne for Christmas morning
5- On our holiday wish list? An Eto Wine Decanter. Not only is it aesthetically pleasing, it decants and preserves your wine up to 2 weeks!
6- Bolognese and cacio e pepe pasta paired with Italian vino. Speaking of, if you are looking for a bottle to splurge on: 2020 Montevertine Le Pergole Torte Toscana IGT
7- Enjoying a glass of wine with the fireplace
Wine Trends for Fall
1- Chardonnay is back- in all forms, oaked and stainless steel
2- More presence when tasting; pausing to see what aromas and flavors you identify in your glass
3- Restaurants with rotating weekly menus
4- Irish Cheddar in place of your go-to nutty cheese
5- Enjoying wine with music > Netflix (but if you are going to watch something with your wine: Drops of God and Somm 4)
6- Wine tastings at home (Buy 3 bottles and curate your own unique tasting)
7- Supporting your fav local wineries and wine shops > buying wine from the grocery store
8- Sipping on Cinsault over Gamay + Beaujolais
9- What to listen to with your glass/bottle: Leon Bridges’ album “Leon” and Larry June’s album “Doing it for Me”
10- Always having 3 bottles of champagne or sparkling (Prosecco is going to have its moment) ready to go in the fridge
