“Reserve de la Saurine grenache blanc

Wise Guys Lounge and Grill owner Tom Procaccio is always serving up interesting wines by the glass. The other week it was a delicious white Bordeaux from France. Last week I had an $8 glass of Reserve de la Saurine grenache blanc.

This crisp white wine from the France’s Languedoc region is brand new to the area, and the North Hill dining spot was one of the first to get it in. It was a hit from the first sip. Loved the floral notes in the glass.

It was the perfect accompaniment with an order of Wise Guys house-made crab Rangoons. The olive oil and lemon vinaigrette on my Greek salad really brought out the citrus notes of the wine.
By the time you and your date each order an $8 glass, you might as well purchase the whole bottle for $20. You can always take home whatever wine you don’t finish. “

Today in Haro - the heart of Rioja Wine Country - they are celebrating La Batalla del Vino. A wine battle with squirts, buckets, and much drinking and dancing..and yes. We wish we were there!
