In the constant search for fine wine it is always a pleasure to pull corks or twist off the caps of wines that just aim to please. Nearly two years ago I tasted Teira Zinfandel and decided to bring it into my stores. I thought the wine was good but had not given it much thought until about two months ago when I retried the wine. Well, I have gone through a few more bottles since then and have decided it was the time to share the beautiful and fun wines of Teira Wines.
Winery: Teira Wines
Wines we enjoyed: Woods Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc Dry Creek Valley 2008 and Sonoma County Zinfandel 2005
Retail: Sauvignon Blanc = $15
Zinfandel = $17
Website: Teira Wines
Fun Fact: Tonight (4/22/2009) Dan Donahoe is going to catch Wilco in Birmingham, Alabama (Wilco is my favorite band).
Tasting Notes for Sauvignon Blanc: Summer in a bottle. This Sauvignon Blanc is pure fun and a pleasure with bright citrus aromas, melon, and fresh grass (that big soft kind). The palate is plump and fruity but well structured, finishes dry with a pop of acidity at the end that keeps the palate fresh. A great wine to enjoy with salads, pasta with butter or cream sauce, poached fish or just straight from the bottle.
Tasting Notes for Zinfandel: This wine is a home run. I am not a ZIN fan but this wine really changed my perspective of what ZIN can been when it is picked at the right time (not too late so it becomes like blueberry syrup) and is not so high in alcohol I feel like I'm doing shots at the frat house. I imagine this is what ZIN was like prior to the "monsterization" of wine in California. Teira Zin has aromas of crushed red raspberries, plump cherries, dried currants, sweet and savory spices. The nose is so appealing that I bury my face in my glass and just take deep breaths...yum. The palate has all the same fruit profiles but where you might think it would be gushing with sweetness it is well balanced and has a structure that you might find out of a Primitivo from Puglia not a Sonoma County Zin under $20. We enjoyed the wine so much we polished it off and were sorry we did not have any more. ZIN's in general are good with BBQ and similar foods but Teira ZIN has more than just one trick in its pairing arsenal. While great with BBQ, Italian dishes make a great pairing as would Mexican cuisine that tends to earthier flavors versus super spicy (think chicken mole). We enjoyed the wine with a flank steak that was seared with wasabi, hoisin, and miso, it was good. The wasabi's heat is subdued by the sweetness of the hoisin and miso. Look near and far for this wine, 'cause summer is coming and you will not want to miss out on this fine wine.

It's understandable that cash can make people disembarrass. But what to do when somebody has no cash? The only one way is to get the business loans and just short term loan.
