Dear Hill & Bach Fans,
We are happy to report that construction of our new venue is progressing at a rapid pace! As of early March, the basic structures are complete. Our windows are currently being installed which will be followed quickly by the interior finishes, such as flooring, ceilings and lighting. Check out our social media on Instagram and Facebook for additional updates and news.
DID YOU KNOW … the 20/20 rule for serving wine?
Most of us know that a white or sparkling wine should be chilled, but did you know that coming straight out of the fridge, they are considered too cold? At this temperature, the delicate aromas and flavors are subdued, so we recommend leaving your bottle to sit out at room temperature for about 20 minutes before serving.
As for reds, most people serve them at room temperature, however, that generally is considered too warm. Room temperature makes the alcohol and tannins feel more astringent and harsh. If you chill your red bottle in the fridge for 20 minutes and then serve, you will have a much more enjoyable wine tasting experience. Hence, the 20/20 rule!
FEATURED RECIPE PAIRING: Spanish Albondigas (Meatballs)
FEATURED WINE: Tempranillo Twang
This satisfying, full bodied red wine fills the glass with sweet aromas of vanilla and clove, ripe fig, blackberry, and hints of chocolate. The aromatics of this wine have depth and spice thanks to the 36 months in French oak barrels. The body is structured with leathery tannins giving a smooth, rustic texture. The acidity is soft and integrated, offering just enough brightness to balance the rich, dark fruit flavors.

CHEESE & WINE PAIRING Spanish Manchego + Tempranillo
“If it grows together, it goes together” is a simple truth for pairing foods and wines. A great example is Spanish Manchego (pictured above), a firm, buttery cheese with a nutty richness, made from the milk of Manchego sheep. It pairs effortlessly with our Tempranillo Twang which is made from the Tempranillo grape that originates from Spain. If you’ve never tried this a timeless, authentic pairing, stop by your local gourmet grocery store for some Manchego cheese and sip with a glass of our Tempranillo.
COMING SOON!!
Our Viognier and Chardonnay
Our two new white wines are almost here, and we are really excited to offer these to Hill & Bach fans! Our Viognier, named “Vio-neigh” as a little play on a horse’s neigh and name of the grape, greets you with lifted aromas of ripe apricot, white peach, and honeysuckle, layered with citrus blossom and a touch of vanilla. Barrel fermentation lends a silky, generous texture, while vibrant acidity keeps the palate fresh through a long, delicious finish.
“Sharp Shootin’ Chard” also features a fun label design inspired by the famous sharp shooter, Annie Oakley. The wine is a beautifully balanced expression Chardonnay, opening with lemon, green apple, and delicate white florals wrapped in a hint of sea-spray minerality. Crisp and lively, with subtle creaminess from neutral barrel aging, it finishes clean and refreshing with lingering citrus and mineral notes.
Stay tuned for an email when they are released!
