About Bucher Wines: “In 2013, when the first vintage of Bucher Wines was ready for release, Diane Kircher Bucher left behind her career in textile sales to work full time for the winery. Wearing too many hats to list, Diane keeps things moving. Her primary goal is to connect with as many folks as possible, getting them to taste the Bucher Vineyard wines. She is often found pouring wine for restaurateurs, retailers, and public events where anyone with a ticket can try their Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.”

Keep Calm, Bucher-on

TASTING NOTES: “Layers of dark, captivating aromatics fill the glass with the essence of ripe cherry woven with traces of boggy earth, cola, black tea and baked brown spices. The bright entry, lifted by supple acidity, expresses rich flavors of Chelan cherry, mulberry and pomegranate arils mingled with toasted oak and hints of sage incense and sandalwood. A savory creaminess appears on the palate as the wine lingers in the long toasty finish.” (AbV 13.0%, pH 3.57, TA 0.67 g/100mL)

THAT REMINDS ME OF: Bucheron, also spelled Bûcheron, Boucheron, Bucherone, Bucherone, Bucherondin…

A soft, goat’s milk cheese first produced in France’s Loire Valley, it’s got a bloomy white rind (so one of those fluffy, ridged edges). The name, Bucheron, means lumberjack. People attribute that to how it looks when it’s made, like short white logs. Typically when it’s young it’s mild, but as it ages, it gets much sharper in taste and softer in texture.
