I actually didn’t open a lot of wine this week as I was
frolicking around Disneyland this past weekend for my nephew’s birthday.
However, I was pleasantly surprised to come home last night after a long night
of teaching class to find that Katie had opened a delectable bottle of wine.
This week I’m talking about the 2008 C2 from Frick Winery.
I always enjoy opening a bottle of Frick wine because I
recall the first time I met visited the winery and met Bill. My in-law’s had
visited him and recommended the wine to me so Katie and I went out years
ago....we were still “The Oregon Wine Blog” at the time. Bill and I had a great
conversation as he told me about the rare Rhone wines he was producing. I didn’t
know much about them at the time but Bill never made me feel bad about that. He
was so willing to educate and walk me through his wines. His tasting room is a
quaint and he is typically the one pouring. I always love going to a tasting
room where the winemaker is pouring. I have sent so many friends and family to
Frick since discovering it and no one has ever told me they didn’t enjoy their
time. It is always on my recommendation list for those looking to try new
things.
Until next week...cheers!
