  It’s patio season! We headed to Blanchard Family Wines’ patio in Dairy Block for some wine tasting this past weekend & had a lovely time.

We arrived at Blanchard and were seated at a table outside. The weather was gorgeous and we got to enjoy the spring flowers & Dairy Block’s lively alleyway. Founders, James & Shanna took great care of us & ensured our wine flights kept coming. James was incredibly knowledgeable on the wine and educated us on each kind we had. Our server Cassidy was attentive and made sure our waters stayed topped off.

Our wine flight included the Blanc de Noir, Riesling, CO Red Blend, & the Cabernet Sauvignon.

The Blanc de Noir was Blanchard Family Wines from Sonoma County. This was a traditional method sparkling constructed from Pinot Noir. The Blanc de Noir was lively on the tongue with flavors of in-season, zesty citrus.

The Riesling was Blanchard Family Wines from Colorado.  I am not a big Riesling fan and enjoyed this one - it wasn’t too sweet. The Riesling was medium-dry with a balanced acidity.

The CO Red Blend was Blanchard Family Wines from Grand Valley. This red blend had alluring aromas of raspberry. This was my second favorite wine of the flight and is a new addition to Blanchard’s menu (make sure to try it out).

The Cabernet Sauvignon was Blanchard Family Wines from Alexander Valley - this was my favorite. The Cab Sauv had a beautiful purplish red garnet in the glass. The taste was big and bold with a smooth finish.

Ross enjoyed non-alcoholic tea that was really refreshing.

For food we had Charcuterie, a Macaron flight, & Cake Pop flight.

The Charcuterie was a chef's board with daily selections of local meats, cheeses, crackers, and accoutrements.

The Macarons were seasonal & custom created by Bella Macarons. My favorite was the Lucky Charms macaron. This green macaron was sweet with a cereal inspired filling and went well with the sparkling Blanc de Noir.

The Cake Pops were from Azucar Bakery and were an assortment of seasonal flavors. My favorite was the red velvet cake pop. It was dipped in white chocolate and tasted like a combination of chocolate and vanilla cake (cocoa with a slightly tart edge). This cake pop paired exceptionally well with the Cabernet Sauvignon - rich & decadent.

Now that's how to do a Sunday funday!

  The family wines were delightful. Our host, E.L., was spot on with her recommendations. Either general tasting or pairing the Rocky Mountain Chocolate we had with us.

  We enjoyed a wine flight back in October. There was a wedding going on in the alley so it was a little difficult to hear at times with the music. But really like this location!
