At the recent Club W launch in New York, I sampled five wines that are also available for purchase on the website. The 2010 Jeanne D’Arc California Chenin Blanc, an orange wine produced with extended skin contact, has a tantalizing bouquet and a melody of flavors such as vanilla, apple and a dash of spice without an overbearing sweetness, while the 2010 Infinite Monkey Theorem Albarino from California was very similar to a Sauvignon Blanc, but enhanced in fruity flavor with a dry, fresh finish.
I enjoyed the earthy subtle tones of the 2010 Three Ceremonies from California – a Syrah, Carignan, and Zinfandel blend. The light, luscious flavors of the 2009 Folk Machine Central Coast Pinot Noir was a crowd pleaser, but a full glass of the dark, rich and velvety 2010 Infinite Monkey Theorem Malbec seemed like the perfect companion for a cozy night on the couch.
There may be a number of factors to consider when picking a great bottle, but your Club W membership will take the guess work out of grapes, so you can enjoy the wine without the worry.
