Toast the holidays with a wine that gives back. By purchasing Jarman Wines you will not only get premium wines, but you will be supporting a worthy cause, finding a cure for Alzheimer’s disease.
Jarman Wines, from Carmel Valley’s newest winery, make the perfect hostess gifts and party offerings, will help benefit the Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF) and honor the matriarch of the family whose name graces the wines created for her. In addition, the winery has opened a tasting room in Carmel Valley that offers three levels of wine tasting and three specially themed picnic packages. Gift certificates for the picnic packages make the perfect stocking stuffer.
Tasting Notes
We sampled bottles of Jarman Wines Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and loved both. They’re perfect for sipping after a long day, or while savoring with a delicious meal.
The 2014 Jarman Chardonnay features floral notes reminiscent of walking by a parfumerie in France — subtle and pleasant with a hint of earthiness. When serving this wine lightly chilled, rich notes of under-ripe berries and raw honey will waltz across your palate.
The 2013 Jarman Pinot Noir takes on nuances of warm blueberry pie, cloves and cinnamon that mingle in the nose with oak notes from 10 months in the barrel. The mouth-feel is plump and juicy with overtones of cassis and blackberries.
