HUGE HALF AND FULL CASE DISCOUNT OF TWO CLASSIC ITALIAN REDS,

TODAY NOVEMBER 25th ONLY

Classic Italian Reds: 2017 Sangiovese & 2018 Nebbiolo

Sangiovese is Italy's most planted grape and is the pride and joy of the Tuscan region. Sangiovese grapes take on new flavors and different stylists expressions based on where it grows. The high acidity in this wine makes it optimal for pairings with spice driven foods like tomato, red pepper pizza!

Nebbiolo grapes can date back as far as the 13th century and carries a big punch of tannins. This punchy red would pair nicely with foods that feature fat, butter or olive oil. Classic rustic Italian food is excellent with this wine of course, but so is hearty and savory Asian-inspired cuisine!

2017 Sangiovese

Inspiration:

Sangiovese is a staple Italian varietal, inspiring our winemaker to tip his hat to his family's Italian lineage of winemaking roots

Taste:

An abundance of tart cherries on the nose and palate, open to nuances of earthiness and tea leaves, with a finish off medium tannins and racy acidity. PairingPizza, pasta, any tomato-based Italian cuisine, Mafia-inspired movies, fresh burrata cheeses, and good friends! Salud!

2018 Nebbiolo

Inspiration:

A harmonious dance between rich, ripe fruit and smooth vanilla flavors.

Taste:

Rich berries with subtle vanilla on the nose. Strong tannis - but soft fruit - on the palate, with a lingering taste of cranberry.

NUEVO VERDE & 2019 WILD FERMENT PINOT NOIR 👇

TODAY NOVEMBER 24TH ONLY!

From Farm to Table, a Generational Family Business

Jornada del Muerto, or Journey of the Dead Man, is a dry desert basin in New Mexico where the Forbidden Desert Vineyard resides (one of the oldest vineyards in the state). Some of the best grapes in the world are harvested here, and we are proud to say the farm is owned and operated by Noisy Water Winery. The area remains uninhabited and undeveloped to this day, except for our patch of grape vines that produce unexpectedly abundant and healthy harvests even in the harsh heat and dryness. Winemaking is in our blood, as we are 5th generation farmers, so you can expect that each grape is nurtured and loved, especially by Uncle Richard, the Vineyard Manager who is pictured above. Our goal is for you to be able to taste the dedication in our wine!

Nuevo Verde & Wild Ferment Pinot Noir

These two wines come from grapes that are harvested at Engle Farms. In fact, our first harvest of grapes from this farm for the 2019 Wild Ferment Pinot Noir will be right in time for the holidays. The Nuevo Verde is a dry white that is crisp and refreshing and would be a great afternoon starter wine on any of the holidays. The 2019 Pinot Noir is bold and robust with notes of dark fruit. This would pair perfectly with a prime rib or grilled salmon.

2019 Nuevo Verde

What is Vinho Verde?

Vinho Verde refers to Portuguese wine that translates as "young wine". Typically released three to six months after the grapes are harvested, which can be red, white or rose. Nuevo Verde is our homage to the great Vinho Verdes of Portugal with our own NWW New Mexican twist.

Winemaker's Notes:

A meaningful first harvest for us after taking on a neglected vineyard, and breathing new life into dying vines. Citrus backbone, bright, fruity, and easily paired with or without dinner.

2019 Old Vine Pinot Noir

Winemaker's Notes:

Remarkable old vine fruit, harvested by hand in our vineyard. Natural yeast of the area to start fermentation in a very atypical fashion. Allowing the indigenous strains of yeast to do the work, this wine was made the way wine was made in New Mexico nearly 400 years ago.

Taste:

This wine showcases beautiful New Mexican fruit and indigenous yeast

RESERVE CHARDONNAY & SKIN FERMENTED CHARDONNAY TODAY, NOVEMBER 23rd ONLY

THE MOST POPULAR WHITE WINE IN THE WORLD

Why do we love Chardonnay?

Chardonnay is so popular because it is so versatile! A huge variety of flavors and styles develop in the wines produced from this grape. 

The Commonalities & Differences Between Our Reserve and Skin Fermented Chardonnays:

The Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay is aged in a new oak barrel and through this process, the oak imparts flavors into this wine like vanilla, caramel and butter. The Skin Fermented  Chardonnay, or Orange Chardonnay, is also made from chardonnay grapes, but unlike the reserve, the skins on these grapes are not removed during fermentation, which results in a delicate balance of plump apricot and heavy floral notes. This classic reserve and golden-hued beauty are definitely one for the books. 

2018 Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay

Inspiration:

Finding the perfect balance of butter and oak: A Chardonnay for all Chardonnay drinkers to love. 

Taste:

Citrus and stone fruit on the nose, a toasted and buttery middle with a smokey vanilla finish

2019 Skin Fermented Chardonnay

Winemaker's Notes:

A meaningful first harvest for us after taking on a neglected vineyard, and breathing new life into dying vines and get beautiful fruit from 30+ year old vines! Nuances of butter and quince bring out the depth of this gorgeous old-vine chardonnay

2017 Dirty Pinot Noir & 2018 Dirty  

👇

Why do we love Mother Nature's wine?

The most defining part of a wine that has minimal intervention is that they are more complex with many more layers and flavor surprises. They are diverse, surprising and merry to the max- the perfect wine for this holiday season.

2017 Dirty Pinot Noir

Inspiration:

Dirty Pinot Noir is more of an Old World style. “Old World” refers to those countries where wine first flourished, namely Western or Central European Countries and others around the Mediterranean basin and near the East.

Taste:

It's medium bodied, with a jammy fruit structure, smoky undertones and a tannic finish. It's unfiltered. Raw. Earthy. New. It's the guilty pleasure that changes your perspective on wine, and maybe even life.

2018 Dirty

Taste:

Hints of black currant and blackberry fill the air as you swirl your glass. Fig and an earthy note of smoke create a mesmerizing middle. Cedar and light tobacco meet on the tail end to finish off a magically dirty experience!

Blend:

20% Merlot, 15% Syrah, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Petit Verdot, 15% Mourvedre, 10% Sangiovese, 10% Malbec

 

Featuring Lily

And Her Favorite Wine

Meet Lily, a face you'll see regularly at the Noisy Water Winery tasting room in Cloudcroft, NM! Lily's  favorite wine is the 2019 Gewürztraminer, not only because it's delicious but its origins and rich history. Alsace is a historical region in northeastern France and this wine has been produced in this region for hundreds of years! You can taste the love and dedication in it.

She also has a special place in her heart for this wine because it was the first wine she tasted in her introductory sommelier course to work for Noisy Water Winery.

Lily loves to pair the 2019 Gewürztraminer with the Spicy Tuna Udon Bowl from a local restaurant in Cloudcroft, New Mexico. Gewürztraminers are known for having subtly sweet and spicy notes and the best pairings happen with this wine when you step outside of traditional French cuisine and experience other foods of the world.

Inspiration:

Modern winemaking: Showcasing the spicy and sweet notes of this varietal, along with a hat tip to one of the world's favorite wines.

Taste:

Nose of peaches, lavender, and cinnamon.  Perfectly sweet meets delicate, mulling spices on the first sip, with a gorgeously sweet orchard finish.  

BUYING WINE FOR THE HOLIDAYS

A Field Guide Pt 1

THANKSGIVING DINNER

There are 4 components that traditionally go into a Thanksgiving dinner:

1. PROTEIN: Turkey or ham
2. ROASTED DISHES: Green bean casserole, or anything baked in the oven
3. DRY SPICES: Cinnamon, clove, dried herbs
4. WINTER FRUIT AND VEGETABLES: Squash, Brussel sprouts, onion, cranberry and potato

When you start to think about all of the ingredients that go into making Thanksgiving dinner, you begin to eliminate wines that possess flavors that are opposite of the flavors you would taste in your feast! Ideally, the goal is to match similar or complimenting flavors found in your meal and in wine! A dry red wine, for example, mirrors those similar flavors like nutmeg and dark fruits that are more in line with the flavor profiles in the entree of your meal.

We recommend a Pinot Noir, Zinfandel or a Barbara/ Gamay blend:

ON TO DESSERT

Pumpkin Pie is a staple dessert at Thanksgiving and is the perfect fall holiday treat. The mulling spices and honeyed fruit flavors found in sweeter white wines pairs up well with the rounder flavor of pumpkin and can handle the fall spices.

We recommend the 2019 Moscato and 2019 Gewürztraminer

Don't gamble on a cute label at the grocery store: keep your wine rack stocked with your favorite small producer!

Cheers!
