I recently visited one of my favorite wine bars in Baltimore City. The Wine Market is located in Locust Point (just "ONE" of the unique niches in the city). My last visit to the Wine Market was years ago for a special occasion. Now it's time to make new memories. On Fridays there are no happy hour specials to be found. But the Wine Market has such a great menu, happy hour prices are not the allure to attract a notorious crowd. Looking at the menu there is much to pair with any glass of vino. On this occasion I chose to "Think Pink". Rose' wine featured as a flight, oh yes..... don't mind if I do! The flight ranged from a light pale pink to a almost fuchsia red Rose'. Out of the three delicious sips, I chose my fav as a 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Rose' from South Africa. The name of the wine is Mulderbosch. I really enjoyed the taste of strawberries, raspberries, and lime. The vino also had a slight layer of tannin due to reminisce of fermentation of the Cabernet grape. Paired with a small plate of crispy brussels sprouts which included chopped walnuts, bacon and sliced grapes. Not one tastebud was spared as I also munched on cornmeal fried oysters accompanied with bacon, beurre blanc and tomato. Mouthwatering!!!
I was so surprised by my love of the Mulderbosch Rose' that I purchased two bottles (from their wine shop) to take home and "maybe" share with friends and family. Check out wine market on your next visit to the Bmore City, here's the website http://winemarketbistro.com
