Looks like the warm weather has finally settled in. Join us and our good friend Vincenzo of Impero Selections this Saturday, June 13, from 1100A- 230P for a tasting of some delicious wines on what’s shaping up to be a gorgeous Saturday.

Our lineup:

Tutiac Cote Ocean Rosé - This easy drinking Merlot rosé from Bordeaux burst on our radar last year and it does not disappoint a year hence. A wonderful berry-centric profile with just the right amount of lip-smacking acidity.

Tinazzi Garda Bianco - From the shores of Lake Garda, Italy’s largest, comes this delightful unoaked Chardonnay blend. Light, fruity and perfect for our increasingly hot and humid temps.

Salvalai Pinot Noir - A couple lighter bodied reds to round out the lineup. First, this crisp, dry, yet very soft Pinot Noir, from Friuli in northwest Italy, will win a spot on your summertime rotation.

Rigoletto Chianti - Finally, this DOCG Chianti will knock your sandals off! 90% Sangiovese is rounded off with 10% Merlot and the result is a beautifully harmonious wine bringing all the character Chianti-lovers will recognize with some soft, rounded tannins from the Merlot. Saturday is looking to be nice if not a bit warm. Let’s see if we can set Vincenzo up with a tent next to the shop. Otherwise, he will holding court inside, beside our cheese case.

We hope to see you in the shop! We thank all of you for your continued support.

In the word’s of John, “This is one of the best rosés I have EVER tasted!”, Introducing Marangona Riviera del Garda Classico Chiaretto from Lombardia, Italy! A direct press blend of Groppello, Marzemino, Barbera & Sangiovese that is light and redolent of red berries & saline. You know when John writes a handwritten note it’s going to be a good one!

Happy Saturday!

Greetings!! Tomorrow, Saturday May 30, from 10AM-1PM we are hosting our friend Stephen Gerike from Buyboat Brands for a tasting of their kippered blue catfish. We’ve had these delights in our case for a couple months, but it’s now time for a formal unveiling of this wild-caught, traditionally smoked, delicious fish. If you haven’t heard, the blue catfish is an invasive species taking over our rivers and threatening the bay. Fortunately, they are delicious. Stop by, learn something, and try some fish. You’ll be doing our native species a favor!
