Summer of I-76
This summer, explore local wines! All summer long, Jet Wine Bar will be celebrating wines and wineries of Pennsylvania in our “Summer of I-76”
Why local? Wine not?
Our local farmers grow fantastic produce that is celebrated in Philadelphia’s best restaurants. Grapes from local vineyards are part of that same tradition, and our local vintners create many excellent wines.
Come taste for yourself at Jet.
From June 14th through Labor Day, we will feature 3 local wines at all times, available individually by-the-glass, or as a flight.
Our first selection is for chardonnay from wineries all within 50 miles of Jet.
Why 3 chardonnays from vineyards in close proximity to each other? Chardonnay done well is an excellent expression of terroir. Consider this an exploration of terroir from Chester County, Delaware County, and Montgomery County.
- Stargazers Vineyards’ Sparkling Chardonnay NV
Bottle fermented, mouth-filling, fine bubbles, crisp flavor. Try with Deviled Eggs.
- Penns Woods Winery Chardonnay Reserve 2011
Medium/light, vibrant body with light acidity and flavors of green apple and mineral. Try with Guacamole.
- Karamoor Estate Chardonnay 2010
Fuller body with lighter acidity, flavors of pear, tropical fruit and some butterscotch. Try with our Aleppo Pita.
Future PA wineries will include Galer Estate, Waltz Vineyards, the Vineyards at Hershey, Blair Vineyards, and many more!
Watch for events featuring these wines, their winemakers, and local foods.
