To celebrate the holiday season, Macadoodle's featured several specialty wine tastings to help customers plan for their Christmas meal. I was lucky to find my friend Dan at the Wine bar and knew I was in for a treat. I was surprised to see that the first wine was the Wilson's Creek Almond Champagne.
Now, I love Wilson Creek. Mainly because this is my father's favorite vineyard in Temecula. My father is lucky enough to live within an hour of Wilson's and is a proud member of the Wilson Creek Wine Club. I asked Dan: "You mean start out the evening with champagne?"
"Well yeah, invite people into your home with a little bubbly! Loosen things up a bit!" was his response.
Freya's Score: 8 -If you like almonds, and you like champagne, you will like this. It is bubbly, the almond welcomes you with a friendly aroma and continues with a lovely slightly sweet flavor. If you are looking for your bottle buddy for December 31st, this is a great alternative to a dry or overly sweet champagne. Available in several Liquor Stores, including the Macadoodle's Pineville location.
