Hello Wine O's,
How we doing this lovely rainy Tuesday? Everyone survive the weekend. I want to thank all of you who made it to, and survived my red blend tasting. Good times, and congrats to the winners........................and losers. I won't mention any names.
Live music tomorrow night from 6-8. What better way to spend a rainy, drizzly evening than in the company of some friends with a glass of Cabernet or Pinot in your glass, a little conversation, and some acoustic guitar in the back ground. This can all be yours for the low price of, ........crap, just pay for the glass of wine and your good. What a deal.
Friday night should be fun, Jason Bull, Wine maker at David Hill, and myself will be here pouring. Jason just released his own label, Zimri Cellars, a delightful robust Pinot Noir & a creamy Chardonnay. I will be pouring some new releases from Ramazzotti Cellars. A winning combo if I say so myself. We will have lots of fun so don't miss out.
I have 9 tickets left for the Apolloni Wine Maker Dinner on March 14th from 6-10pm. Dinner is at the winery and tickets are 55 per person. Any questions please email me at scott@thewinebehren.com or call me at 503-359-1967.
Saturday night we might be graced with the smooth sounds of EJ Bazea, all depends if he kicks his sore throat by then. Good luck EJ.

Howdy Enophiles,
Live MUSIC tomorrow, Wednesday night, 5-8 pm. No cover. Come down for a glass and relax and listen to some acoustic guitar. See you here.
This Friday night I have the beautiful Danelle from Cowan Vineyards here. Her and her parents own and run Cowan Winery out of Prosser Washington. These wines from a little family run operation are every thing you would expect from a small hands on winery. Great wines for a great price.
Currently Available Wines
2005 Gewürztraminer:
Think of biting into a juicy pineapple. A dry wine that is great with food. The classic aromas of minerals, pears, apricots, grapefruit zest, and delicate spices are abundant in this Gewürztraminer. $12.00
2007 Red Head Rosé:
Far beyond your everyday Rosé this 100% Cabernet Franc Rosé is beautifully focused to show off off the softer, lighter side of the grape varietal.The enticing hint of spice (cinnamon, clove) and crab apple flavors are balanced with just the right amount of acidity for a long, smooth, satisfying finish.$11.00
2004 Merlot:
The clay soil in our estate vineyard contributes rich fruit, moderate tannins and unique balance. It starts off with smoke and cherry in the nose and fills the mouth with cherries, plum and hints of licorice.$16.00
2004 Cabernet Franc:
Dried strawberries, a bit of leafiness and black cherry aromas evolve into more red fruit flavors of strawberry/rhubarb. It's juicy, silky smooth and medium-bodied for a wide range of food applications.$18.00
2004 Cabernet Sauvignon:
Cowan Vineyards estate grown Cabernet grapes gives this wine solid tannins which provides perfect balances for drinking now or cellaring for a few years. Allowing this wine to breathe enhances the subtle berries and licorice flavors.$17.50
2004 Tartan Red:
This is a masterful blend of 12% Cabernet Franc, 46% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 42% Merlot each displaying their unique characteristics. It is big on pomegranates and pie cherries with pipe tobacco and a bit of bell pepper. $18.00
NEW & for a limited time: 2007 Muscat Canelli.
This fragrant, unique wine is well balanced with a touch of sweetness. It has flavors of peach & orange - good for sipping & savoring. $15.00
The Wine Behren will close early Saturday night. 7 pm. I apologize for the inconvenience.
Ciao for now.
