13.5% Wine Bar- Three European Flight

Last nite I visited the 13.5% Wine Bar in Hampden. The experience was out of this world awesome. The service was great. The atmosphere and people were fantastic. They are well known for their spectacular wines. I ordered the Three European Flight. The wines that accompanied this flight were a Cardigan/Grenache (Cellar el Masroig sola Fred 2010 from Spain), a Cabernet Franc (Domaine Joulin 2011 from France), and a Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot (Godzilla, rosso saline 2004 from Italy). I felt like I took a trip around Europe hence the name of the flight. The Cardigan/Grenache wine was delicious. It boasted a hint of spice and finished smooth. The Cabernet Franc was smooth as well; very bold for a Cabernet Franc. The Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot blend was good. I tasted more of the Merlot than the Cabernet Sauvignon. Not a problem though, I love Merlot. Last but not least I enjoyed a scrumptious personal pizza topped with mushrooms and ricotta cheese. I defiantly recommend enjoying a night at the 13.5% Wine Bar.
