Celebrate Valentine's day early and often! We'll do our part to help. Free of Charge; Full of Fun. 10% off from the first bottle on the tasting table

Beth Wolfe of Siema Wines joins us.

We've selected quite an eclectic array of wines for the tasting table to

ensure that there will be something to please everyone's special Valentine!


First, a pair of "lovely" wines from the La Cappuccina estate in Romeo &

Juliet's hometown of Verona:



Verona Bianco- A crisp, clean blend of the regional grape Garganega and

Sauvignon Blanc.



Verona Rosso- A smooth Merlot, blended with a bit of the Veronese grape

Raboso.



"Olinto" Chianti Classico


A classic wine for lovers of Tuscany (and who doesn't LOVE Tuscany?!). This

version is earthy and classic, blended with a bit of Merlot for a smooth,

cherry-flavored finish.



Another "pair" of lovelies, from a husband & wife winemaking team at the

Organic
Meinklang Estate in Pannonia Austria:



Meinklang Pinot Noir Frizzante - A beautiful pink sparkler, made
from Pinot Noir grapes. Fresh and lively, great with
or without food.



Meinklang IceWine (Pinot Blanc) -A sweet for your sweet! An aromatic and

delicate IceWine made in the traditional style of allowing the grapes to

freeze on the vine. All conditions must be perfect to produce this wine,

and this is the first vintage in three years!


Sawtooth Riesling - A classic Riesling, with a natural, juicy yet clean

sweetness resulting from the plump, ripe grapes which are cultivated in

Idaho's Snake River Valley. I'm not going to try and make a joke about

Valentine's Day, being snake-bitten or how long the Snake River is.

I figure that's better left to your imagination - wherever it leads you!!
