Blanchard Family Wines - Denver

Wide selection of wines from California and Colorado, all of which are really good. They have a good selection of dry whites and reds, which is always up my alley hard to find a good dry riesling!I'm really impressed with their reds: the zin, merlot, and reserve red are all really excellent dry flavorful wines with good depth.It's priced fine for the area, with glasses ranging from $11 13 (better to buy the bottles for $30 if you're going to have more than 2 glasses).Located in the Milk Market back alley, with both indoor and outdoor seating available. Also, the staff are super duper helpful and friendly.All around a great experience!

Alli is amazing! We stopped in by chance, expecting a nice glass of wine. Instead it was an incredibly educational experience! I will be back!

Stumbled upon this amazing little spot and it was the highlight of our weekend! Alli provided us with such an education on Colorado wines and her passion was contagious. Highly recommend if you are looking for more than just a typical wine tasting.

Went out for a girls nights and this was the perfect spot! The ambiance was chill and service was super nice. We each got a flight of wine where we were able to mix and match. They offer options for Colorado wine which was nice. We also decided to order a flight of their pop cakes and macaroons. Everything was delicious! Will definitely be back!

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!
