Episode Synopsis

Whitney Grant, wine educator and certified sommelier and Robert Tas head west to Seattle where they explore the wine list at the Purple Cafe and Wine Bar. A thirty-foot tower of wine sits in the middle of this glass-panelled restaurant, so you know their attention to their wine list is front facing. The menu and wine list have been carefully curated to pair well with food and wine from regions in the northwest and beyond.  Whitney explains which type of wine works best with spicy foods and why, how aging on the lees affects the wine, and which types of food pair well with tannin-heavy wines.  Wines reviewed include: 2019 Schramsberg Blanc de Blanc Domaine Jerome Gradassi, Cotes du Rhone, Chateauneuf du Pape The Chateau Musar "Musar Jeune" For more information on today's episode, and the wines you love to love, visit www.corkrules.com.
