First Club COWHORN Pickup Party
Sunday | 14 February 2010
It all went by so fast! On Saturday, Cowhorn hosted 60 people for our first Club Cowhorn party. Folks tasted our 2008 Spiral 36, our 2007 Syrah and barrel sampled a 2009 Syrah. In addition, we debuted for our guests the 2008 Grenache 74 (named after the varietal and the number of frost hours that year).With strong notes of cherry, hints of spice and a nice finish, the wine “jumped out of the glass” to several tasters. Paired with the wines were several cheeses from Rogue Creamery (thanks Tom, both cheeses were gone by events end) as well as homemade cookies and breads by our wonderful in-house chef, Barbara.
Thanks to all that attended for making the event a rousing success. If only it had gone by a little slower.
