Wine Tasting to Benefit Animal Compassion Network

Besides being a top wine store in South Asheville, North Carolina, Table Wine loves giving back to their community. And Animal Compassion Network (Asheville, North Carolina 28803) is one of those community organizations that Table Wine loves and and supports. They show their support by helping ACN to raise money for its foster/adoption program through the sale of wine all year long.

On Friday, June 10, from 3 pm – 7 pm, you can try the 5 wines that give back, meaning any time you purchase any of the following wines, Table Wine donates 10% of the proceeds back to ACN. Here’s the current list of wines Table Wine is featuring and the ones you can taste on Friday, June 10.

• Terra Andina Sauvignon Blanc Central Valley, Chile — $8.99: One of the most popular white wines in the store, this is a lovely, herbaceous, fruity, Sauvignon Blanc at a very fair price.
• Tilia Chardonnay Mendoza, Argentine — $9.99: A great all-around Chardonnay with lots of ripe tropical fruits, hints of butter and just a whiff of toasty oak. The entry level label from the Catena family.
• Terra Andina Carmenere Central Valley, Chile — $8.99: Super smooth and silky, with lots of blueberry and black cherry fruit and spicy, toasty oak notes.
• Terra Andina Cabernet Sauvignon Central Valley, Chile – $8.99: A medium weight Cab with nice cherry, raspberry and vanilla notes. Perfect for a Tuesday night!
• Tilia Malbec Mendoza, Argentina — $9.99: Warm, spicy and inviting with a good mix of blackberry and boysenberry fruit, this one begs for something off the grill.

See you next Friday!
