Sip and Support Wilton's Relay for Life - Free Wine Tasting at Ancona's

Sip and support Wilton Relay for life! Please join Ancona's as we raise a glass and funds for The American Cancer Society on Saturday, May 17th, from 2-5pm at Ancona's Wines in Wilton. Proceeds from the sale of tasting wines will be donated to the American Cancer Society. Tasting highlights include: 


2013 Gobelsberger Rosé - This Rosé is a blend of Zweigelt and St. Laurent grapes from the cooler sites of Langenlois and Gobelsburg. The wine shows a brilliant clear rose color. Decadent fresh cherry fruit on the palate is accompanied by refreshing acidity. This invigorating rose is the perfect wine to enjoy as we welcome warm sunny days.
2013 Weingut H.u.M. Hofer Gruner Veltliner - This organically run family farm run by Herman Hofer makes top quality Gruner's.  It is bottled in a traditional one  liter bottle with a beer bottle style crown cap.  It is a refreshing in-oaked sipper with a lovely mouthful of flavor.  Citrus and crisp acidity backed by boney dry minerality makes this wine versatile, food friendly spring/summer white wine to pair with fish, chicken, or vegetable dishes.
2012 Joel Gott Oregon Pinot Noir - This Oregon Pinot Noir has aromatics of raspberry, blueberry, tart cherry, and violets with hints of sweet cedar and spice. On the palate, lush fruit flavors lead to soft, velvety tannins on the mid-palate and a well-balanced finish.
2011 Broadside Cabernet Sauvignon - This Cab has penetrating aromas of black currant and red berries, graphite and spice meet a classically Bordelaise palate with nuance and structure. Resoundingly dry and elegant with fine purity of flavor and a lingering, balanced finish.
