A few years ago, I had the great fortune to taste with my friend and mentor, Dan Pilkey, a brand ambassador for Paul Hobbs. While I’ve always enjoyed the wines Hobbs makes, Dan mentioned and poured a wine from Hobbs’ new Armenian collaboration with the Yacoubian family. For this month, I’d like to sip and share two selections from Yacoubian-Hobbs for the Discover and Jefferson Clubs.
This month we feature two distinct wines from the Iberian Peninsula. The first is a delicious palate-cleansing fizzy Rose from Portugal which is perfect for summer. The Second wine is a bold Spanish Rioja that blends high tannin and acid with a generous amount of oak to form a well-balanced, full-bodied red wine.
This month we feature two wines from here stateside, a Washington Sauvignon Blanc and a Pinot Noir from California. Pavette not only sports a lovely label but also has the in-bottle product to back it up.
