| - Wine Styles is a national wine boutique, but it has a wonderfully intimate and personalized feel - not something you would expect from a franchise.
What I particularly loved about WS is that the wines are organized by different styles instead of types of grape or region it was grown. This makes even the first wine tasting more...palatable. Profiles include Crisp, Silky, Rich and Bubbly for whites and Fruity, Mellow, Bold and Nectar for reds. Furthermore, you can learn a lot about the wine's notes and flavors as well as suggested pairings simple by reading the descriptions posted by the bottles. Without even doing a tasting, you can leave here feeling certain you have learned something.
To really get a sense of a wine room, a boutique, a winery - a tasting is an absolute must. For me, it's always an education in wine. And I continue to be impressed with the extensive knowledge our sommeliers have. I learn something new every time, and this ride with Baccus was no different.
I reserved a wine tasting for four. When we arrived, our table had a personalized menu of the wines we would be sampling. It included five wines, ranging from crisp to bold. As mentioned, wines are separated here by flavor, not by region. We sampled Australian savignon blanc, italian pinot grigio, 2 very different californian cabernet sauvignons, and a californian pinot noir. Through our tasting we learned about what can create the distinctive bouquets in certain wines, how soil and climate can affect the overall nose, and what makes the grapes we sampled unique. We paired the wines with some cheeses ranging from Stilton to Pecorino, and had a thoroughly enjoyable flight.
Prices of bottles from our flight ranged from $13.49-$24.29. I did purchase an Italian Moscato and their signature favorite "New Age." The "New Age" was spectacular! Light, crisp, sweet but not overindulgent. Moscato had too much honey notes but I was overall pleased. Those two bottles totaled about $23.
WS does have great deals such as their 6 for $60. This includes forty different bottles that can be purchased for $10 a piece.
