Wine Wednesday 4/24

Wine Wednesday 🍷 This wine just released and of course it has a good story with it 🤓 Introducing Hushkeeper

During prohibition in the 1920s, it was illegal to make, sell or transport alcohol in the United States. But it was legal to drink it. Any bottles that Americans had stashed away in January of 1920 were theirs to keep and enjoy, but only in the privacy of their own homes. For most, this amounted to only a few bottles, which wasn’t nearly enough. So they would look to a Hush Shopkeeper - or a “Hushkeeper”- from whom they could secretly buy more. 😍

Hushkeeper pays homage to a pivotal time in history, a time we are thankful is just that - history. No more secret passwords or doorways here - just delicious wine.

Hushkeeper wines are all old-vine, dating back at least 20 years. #throwback #cleancraftedwine #scoutandcellar #wineconsultant #hushkeeper #zinfandel

Fruity. Bold. Intensely ruby with strawberry compote, macerated raspberry, white pepper and mint on a full-bodied frame with silky tannins and a juicy finish. Pairs perfectly with hearty meats fresh off the grill, so gather your friends – it’s time for a cookout.

Mendocino County, California

Fruity. Bold. Deeply-colored with blackberry cobbler, plum, garrigue and spice on a richly-textured palate with a long finish lifted by refreshing acidity. Pairs with steak and sautéed shiitake mushrooms – aka Date Night.
