Wesley Ashley Wines Sampler (3)

Tuesday, July 17, 2012

At first glance, you might not get excited about the idea of a sampler. Your average chain restaurant, for instance, might pile a tray full of various fried things smothered in cheese and encourage you to dive in to their “sampler.” With a wink and a nod they pretend you’re sampling flavors other than breading and cooking oil.

But that’s not the case with this Wesley Ashley Wine Sampler!With two bottles of Cuvee and one of Cuvee Blanc you’ll be tasting all KINDS of things, like creamy, silky textures and a smooth, lingering finish. You’ll enjoy notes of ripe peach, stone fruit, and white pepper. You might enjoy flavors of dark fruit and spice, too! Really the sky’s the limit as far as the flavors you’ll experience.

Except for fried.
