Happy September Salida! I love this time of year in the valley and it might just be my favorite other than it marks the end of summertime. It’s nice to have things slow down a bit and get Salida back to ourselves somewhat. While we still have Labor Day weekend, Fiber Festival, Bike Fest and yet another big event in Buena Vista, 14er fest, everything is just a little more – chill. So even with a long list of events it’s a great time to enjoy many local places all to ourselves.
The next time I write this letter the leaves in the high country will mostly be on the ground and the leaves in the valley will be in full force. The sun will be noticeably lower in the sky and the days much shorter…yikes!! So until then get out and get some! We have plenty of time for some late summer fun!! And when you are done with your fun for the day come by and see us at the F Street Bridge so we can help keep you nice and refreshed afterwards. Hope to see you all very soon!

The staff at Arlie Dale’s Jug Liquors

Chateau Daviaud Bordeaux 2019
Was $16.99 - Now $14.99
The wine’s colour is strong, but not excessively so and lets us perceive a refined style, already displaying the large proportion of Cabernet Franc in the blend. The nose is expressive on notes of fruit and lots of spice; it reveals ripeness and is very fresh. On the palate, this wine is charming, with surprising fullness, smoothness and also a lot of depth.

Mettler Old Vine Zin 2019
Was $27.99 - Now $22.99
The 2019 Mettler "Epicenter" Old Vine Zinfandel tempts with its intense aromas of ripe wild blueberry and a hint of black pepper. The sturdy but softly integrated tannins yield to subtle notes of vanilla and cedar as the wine lingers on your palate. A light touch of acidity creates balance while retaining the juicy fruit forward personality that is uniquely Zinfandel.

A bright, lemony and densely fruity ensemble which has a long-lasting and thought-provoking finish, smooth ("lisse") as silk ("soie"). Best to pair this wine with a nice herb-roasted dish or a seared tuna with kimchi. Soft-shell crabs with a lemon aioli or a nice red snapper with a mango sauce.

Was $12.99 - Now $10.99
A vibrant new project from some of the most terrific behind-the-scene peeps in Washington Wine. With delicious fruit from the Wahluke Slope, you will absolutely enjoy uplifting aromas of lavender and spices complemented with fresh notes of black cherry and red currant. Mixed berry flavors, silky-smooth tannins, and an attractive cassis note add weight to the mid-palate and nice length to a white pepper finish. Great with lasagna or burgers.

Anatomy came into being in 2006 because Vintner Philippe Langner wanted to make an affordable Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.

This pinot noir is the first addition to the Anatomy line of wines.
