Tuesday November 1 - Mouton Noir Tasting

November 01, 2016 6:00PM - 8:00PM at Seaboard Taproom & Wine Bar

Hey Everyone!

Tuesday November 1st is another wine tasting and this time we are featuring Mouton Noir out of Oregon!

Mouton Noir is a two-fold lifestyle project producing both a T-Shirt line and Oregon wines. Founded by sommelier André Hueston Mack in 2007, both ends of Mouton Noir incorporate a trademark attitude and personal perspective on wine subculture. The wines are unique and distinctive garage wines, initially created for some of the New York's best restaurants for whom Mack was a sommelier and now available nationwide. Mouton Noir apparel is inspired by WINE LIFESTYLE/STREET CULTURE of skateboarding, punk, and hip-hop cultures. The design is also reminiscent of independent skateboard company apparel of the 1990s.

We have 4 wines from Mouton Noir for the tasting including:

2014 Knock On Wood: 100% Chardonnay, all stainless-steel and no malolactic fermentation. Procured from hillside vineyards in Yamhill-Carlton AVA, reminiscent of the grand crus of Burgundy's Cote d'Or. It benefited from a very long and cold fermentation - almost two months - resulting in a lean and mean wine with perfume of honeydew melon and pear surfing huge waves of minerals, bringing a nice tide of racy starfruit to the finish.

2015 O.P.P Pinot Gris - The 2015 vintage was Oregon's hottest and largest harvest on record, producing lush round fruit with balance acidity! We would like to introduce our take on Pinot Noirs favorite mutation: The 2015 Other People’s Pinot Gris is like Juggling Apples, Pears and Peaches while dancing to Pharell's "Happy" - enthralling, upbeat, fresh and deluxe.

2014 O.P.P Pinot Noir - The 2014 Other People’s Pinot is classic Oregon Pinot—earmark Willamette Valley. It is accessible, a great value, and stays true to the character of the vineyards from which it was born. Earthy, spicy, floral, herb-framed flavors of cherry with gingery wood spice tones.

Horseshoes & Handgrenades Red Blend - fruit-driven, full-bodied complex red blend sourced from Southern Oregon and Washington State. The rich, ripe, voluptuous fruit comes from the Syrah out of the Rogue Valley in southwesten Oregon
with just enough Washington Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot to give it complexity and structure. Barrel aged for 10 months. Think cherry pits and leather whips!

10$ for the tasting and you recieve 15% off any bottle bought that night or special ordered! Join us 6pm-8pm Cheers!
