Jurgen & Guy
I’m a BIG fan of Champagne, Sparkling Wine, Bubbles whatever you prefer…all year round but everyone seems to pay attention to this magical wine this time of year. My guest today is Jürgen Grieb founding owner and Winemaker at Treveri Cellars. This fine sparkling wine producer is located in the Yakima Valley, the heart of the Columbia Valley in Washington state. I had the pleasure of spending an afternoon on the patio at this picture-postcard location with Jürgen this past April. We now have Treveri Cellars wines here in Kansas including Jacob Liquor Exchange on North Rock Rd.
Treveri Cellars is a family-owned sparkling wine house that produces some of the finest handcrafted sparkling wines in the United States. Treveri opened its doors on November 23, 2010 with a mission to put Washington sparkling wine on the map. Since its opening, Treveri wine has been served at White House State Department receptions and the James Beard Foundation in New York. Producing a wide array of sparkling wines, including non-traditional varieties such as Riesling and Mueller-Thurgau, Treveri largely focuses on 100% varietal sparkling wines, and is also launching a reserve tier of sparkling wine.
Perfect wine for your holiday party or dinner. Learn more at: www.trevericellars.com
Later in the second half I’ll be talking to my friends at Jacob Liquor Exchange and The Cigar Chateau about last minute gift ideas for Christmas. If you have been procrastinating or need a last minute gift for those on your list who like adult beverages, fine cigars, pipe tobacco and an array of wine accessories, Jacob Liquor and the Cigar Chateau are open until 11:00 p.m. Christmas Eve. www.jacobliquor.com
Good Life Guy’s Wine of the Week:
NV Treveri Cellars Brut Blan de Blanc
100% Chardonnay from the Yakima Valley AVA made in the traditional method. Smooth, complex and crisp, showing green apple and a hint of brioche balanced by bright acidity and touch of yeast on the palate for a cool, crisp finish. This Brut forges old world methods together with new world fruit, making this wine one that shouldn’t be missed. Treveri Brut demands indulgence and brings clear perspective to your moment. The fresh and dry finish enhances this bubbly, and brings luxury to any occasion.
Pick up a few bottles at Jacob Liquor on N. Rock Road
