Juno’s Liquor - Wine tasting Wednesday
This week’s Wine Tasting Wednesday at Juno’s Liquor Las Colinas brings together two standout expressions from opposite sides of the world — one rooted in the historic, sandy soils of Contra Costa County, the other shaped by the cool, slate‑lined hills of Germany’s Mosel Valley. Each wine tells a story of place, tradition, and craftsmanship, offering a perfect contrast for a mid‑week tasting.
Cline Old Vine Zinfandel California
You’ll explore the bold, old‑vine richness of Cline Old Vine Zinfandel alongside the elegant, late‑harvest finesse of Wilhelm Bergmann Piesporter Michelsberg Spätlese. Together, they showcase how dramatically terroir can shape flavor — one warm, dark, and expressive; the other bright, mineral, and beautifully layered.
Cline Old Vine Zinfandel — Contra Costa County, California Rooted in century‑old vines along the sandy soils of Contra Costa County, this Zinfandel delivers the depth and character that only time can create. Expect rich aromas of blackberry, dark cherry, and warm spice, balanced by a smooth, velvety texture and a hint of vanilla oak.
Each sip reflects the heritage of California’s early vineyards — bold yet refined, with a lingering finish that invites conversation. It’s a perfect pour for mid‑week tasting: approachable, expressive, and unmistakably Californian.
Wilhelm Bergmann Mosel Riesling
Wilhelm Bergmann Piesporter Michelsberg Spätlese — Mosel, Germany From the steep, slate‑lined slopes of the Mosel Valley comes this elegant late‑harvest Riesling — a wine that captures the cool river air and mineral‑rich soil of its origin. The Piesporter Michelsberg Spätlese opens with aromas of white peach, honey, and citrus blossom, followed by a palate that balances gentle sweetness with crisp acidity.
It’s a classic Mosel expression — light, refreshing, and beautifully layered — perfect for summer evenings or pairing with spicy dishes. At Juno’s LiquorLas Colinas, it’s your chance to taste a Riesling that feels both timeless and modern, crafted for those who appreciate finesse over flash.
Our wine tasting tomorrow will be led by Joe Leszko, whose expertise in wine is both extensive and well‑respected. He brings a clear, instructive approach that elevates every discussion.
