Labor Day & Arcade Brewery

Labor Day & Arcade Brewery

Hear ye! Hear ye! All ye Kings and Queens, Knights and Nobles! The Noble Grape will be closed this Monday, September 1st for Labor Day. But fear not! We shall be open from 12-10 Sunday for all of your libation needs. So come by and stock up for a lovely Monday of celebrating the social and economic achievements of American workers.

This Wednesday, Andrew from H2Vino will be sampling out Matias Verdelho, Mas de Gourgonnier Rosé, and Murua Tempranillo amongst others! Mas de Gourgonnier Rosé is light, bright orange in color with expressive aromas of fresh red berries and citrus pith. Energetic and precise in the mouth, offering tangy red currant and strawberry flavors and a hint of white pepper. With its racy, dry finish, this is ridiculously easy to drink and perfect for parties.

Then on Friday, The Noble Grape will have a double header tasting with wine up front and beer in the back. Featured wines will include De Meye Shiraz Rosé, Iona Sophie Le Rouge, and Mr. P Knows Pinot Noir. Mr. P Knows has a nose of morello cherries, strawberry, violet and cranberry. The palate is light and attractive, raspberry, cherry and pepper spice. Velvety tannins and silky acidity lend an elegance to this wine which is often hard to find in a Pinot at this price level.

In the back of the shop, P.J. from Arcade Brewery will be pouring their popular William Wallace Wrestle Fest Scotch Ale and Grapefruit IPA. Arcade Brewery has crafted the very session-able Grapefruit IPA featuring citrus hop aroma and the addition of grapefruit; creating an awesome balance between hop bitterness and the citrus bite. A fine balancing act of biscuit malts allows a long hop finish which won’t fatigue taste buds; allowing the second drink to build off the first. An immensely sessionable ale, Grapefruit IPA will win over all drinkers and give IPA lovers a new take on the incredibly popular style.
