Vino WineVirtual 'Sparkling & Sushi' Tasting on Facebook Live! June 5th at 4PM on Vino's Facebook page John Allen and Eric Cook are teaming up to produce a wine tasting we can all attend! We're matching our wine selections with "Take-Out" menu items from local restaurants, supporting our fellow small businesses through this serious economic down-time. For this episode John and Eric will be tasting fantastic sparkling wines from our earlier "6-Pack of Bubbles" package. Each are still available at the shop if you'd like to pick up one (or more!) for yourself: THE WINES Campo Viejo Cava -$9.95/cc 8.46 If you have not tried Cava in a while, this is our store favorite/best seller for its fruit-forward yet dry style that is as refreshing as it is flavorful. Perfect for Sunday brunches. Simonet Cremant d'Alsace – $17.95/cc 15.26 Easy pear and citrus from this unique Alsatian producer – the dried citrus fruit impressions seem almost candied – but dry. Yum. Piper-Heidsieck Brut, Champagne – $39.00/cc 33.15 The persistent fruit in this Classic Brut Champagne sets it apart from its colleagues – it's dry, but not as yeasty, "brioche-y" as most other Bruts. This delicious Champagne needs neither a reason nor a meal to enjoy!
