Changing The Language Of Wine

The language of wine; romantic, mysterious, enticing, yet often confusing! What’s the difference between 93 points with a gold sticker and 92 points with a silver? They taste pretty much the same right? What if you could know exactly what the wine will taste like when you buy it? Wine-oji is on a mission to solve this problem one wine at a time. Join the team at Noble Rot as they take a wine and compare its “classic review” with their very own Wine-oji profile to show you just how helpful this new, visual language for wine is. Wines will be accompanied by cheese, charcuterie and Noble Rot's famous chicken liver parfait. Plus, you get to take home your very own Wine-oji® Library. Welcome to the future of wine.

The Greatness Of Grenache

All hail Grenache! Living in the shadows of more famous varieties like Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache represents the quiet achiever rather than the rock star. For Noble Rot’s Josh Pointon, Grenache is ready for a change in status. Whether you’re in Spain drinking Garnacha Tinta or Garnatxa, in Italy drinking Cannonau, or Australia drinking it as a blend in a GSM with Syrah and Mourvedre, Grenache has the qualities to be outstanding. Taste your way around the world of Grenache while enjoying a five-course tasting menu designed with the great grape in mind and get ready to bend the knee.

The Wines They Are A Changing

Wine is in a constant state of flux. Bottled young and often opened soon thereafter, but what happens when wine is left to develop and change with time? The Noble Wine-olojists have selected pairs of the same wine, one newly bottled current release and one bottled for many years to demonstrate the differences in development stages. Taste ten wines perfectly complemented by head chef Shanti Saraf’s delicious five-course tasting fare that will enhance wines both young and old. Wine, like people, changes with age and some get better!
