Wine writer recommends Clearwater Canyon

June 18, 2012

We participated in Savor Idaho on June 10th. About 1,000 people tasted wine from 28 Idaho wineries and nibbled on gourmet food prepared by Boise area restaurants. We had the opportunity to dine (at Fork in Boise) with Ben Weinberg prior to the event. Ben is a well traveled wine writer and recommended two of our wines to his blog readers! Click here to read what Ben wrote about us and to get a good laugh at the picture he posted of me slurping and swirling our wine! Can’t take me anywhere!

If you’re looking for some really unique and tasty food in a cozy atmosphere you need to check-out Seasons Bistro! They just added our 2009 Cab Franc, Merlot, Renaissance Red, and Malbec to their wine list. Tina Poe (chef/owner) tasted our wines the other day and got so excited/inspired she planned a wine pairing dinner with Clearwater Canyon Cellars wines for EVERY course! The dinner is June 13 and it is already filling fast! Go to their webpage for reservations and more info (http://www.seasonsbistroandcatering.com/). Download menu

This is a great stop if you are driving between Missoula Montana and Lewiston. Great food and a compelling wine list ….yup it is a must do…sip Clearwater Canyon Cellars Lochsa at the Lodge after a long day on the Lochsa! Peter Grubb, the owner, is a real wine lover. I took this picture of Peter in front of one of the cabins (COMPLETE WITH HOT TUB). Can you see the wine stains on his teeth? He seemed to really like our Cab Franc 😉 Check them out at http://www.riverdancelodge.com

Tasting the first ever Lewis-Clark Valley grown Carmenere with the the proud growers of the ‘Near Eden Vineyard’. I got lost in the nose of this wine…big pepper and floral aromas..there isn’t much of it making it that much more special!
