Friday night in the making with friends at home…best restaurant in town;)

06/13/2024

Summer salads welcome bold wines. Just find reds that are acid driven, which often is identified as “brightness.” Acid in balance with bold fruit makes a great accompaniment to salads!!

cheers!

Never and Always aren’t in my vocabulary anymore. Tonight’s blind tasting of two very different Sauvignon Blancs proves that wine made well is good wine. One from the Loire and one from Marlborough, both made with care, and both delicious. Don’t bet on which is which, 90% swore they know….and they didn’t. In the end, they learned and laughed with surprise. 😮

Thanks for being open to learning!

Join me tomorrow to think about Rhone varietal blends 🍷

03/23/2024

Always welcoming an opportunity to learn & Natalie Volpi knows far more about Italian wine than I do, so join me tomorrow in a tasting of her portfolio! She is as fun and charming as she is knowledgeable! Don't let a little rain stop you from coming Saturday 3/23 3-6pm. The sun will be shining in the glass, I promise! 🇮🇹 🌞 🍷

Cheers!

have landed in Rhode Island--FINALLY!! Making wine starts in the spring with bud break, selecting grapes, building a relationship with the growers and watching the development of the vines. Then you pick and the magic of the winery work begins. It is a wonderful journey, albeit a little stressful and a ton of work. But, here they are!! I look forward to sharing my wines with you. Each one is unique, all are made with intention and with care. ❤️ 🍷

Thanks to Abiouness Wines for all the fun & the best crew ever !! Could not do this with out you all!

Saturday Tasting 4-6pm

Food and wine elevate each other when well paired, come in and see how salt, fat, and spice work so well with this Umbrian Sangiovese. Medium bodied, fruity and flora aromas, bright acidity and warm ripe plum flavors and dusty thyme come together in a delightful, value red.

come check it out!

03/01/2024

Tasting a still, red Pinot Noir from Champagne tonight…that’s right, I said, STILL and RED from a region that is almost exclusively known for sparkling white wines (and rosé)! 🤯 Come in and learn the how and why and sample the stunning outcome!

The Dumont’s make beautiful, elegant wines with tension and expression. This Pinot will surprise and delight you! Growers Champagne Wineries grow, hand harvest, and produce their wines with grapes grown on their own estate. Yes, that matters!!

We care about these wineries and exclusively carry grower’s champagne because they are hand crafted, good for our bodies, good to the earth and all the people on the chain!

Setting up for today’s tasting with my guest Pascal Schildt!! We are continuing our study of bold reds this week with the addition of a Red Zinfandel, a grape that lives on the boarder of “medium” to “bold.” Precedent Zin is complex, nuanced, subtle and powerful, so I am of the bold mind, but you may feel differently.

Come in and cast your vote!

The Corte Rugolin Valpolicella is a returning wine to our wine club, and it warrants revisiting. This brother and sister team in the Northeast of Italy make beautiful wines and the entry level red is no exception. It is youthful and modern and easy-to-drink with a deep ruby-red color, fruity aromas that invoke the taste of fresh dark cherries, plums and tart berries. It is full-bodied and balanced in flavor with length and minerality and loads of texture. While it drinks well young, it would age beautifully, exchanging the freshness for a more developed herbal note, cassis and dried fruits. These are the same grapes in Amarone: Corvina, Rondinella, Molinara, and Corvinone, which when aged on the vine produce intense, highly concentrated reds with high tannin that give structure for aging. Try it with pasta carbonara & prepare to swoon.

Thanks Sophia ❤️ Yours is hands down the best I have ever had! 🍝

It's a New World weekend at NWC&G!

Tasting Friday & Saturday 4-6 (always complimentary & fun) will focus on the question of "Bold Red" and what that means.

It is more complicated than a singular term suggests. It is winter and our food is best paired with a more robust red, generally speaking, but there are so many varietals that can be described as bold, big, robust. Take a look at what that can mean, so you have a better sense of your own palate.

Cheers!

Sunday Lunch

Simple and delicious, Carrot Soup from Saturday Market, add a little fresh goat cheese from our newest cheese selections…

What to Pair? BalestriValda Souve meets the freshness with its acidity and then complements the carrots with a nutty note that I just love on this fruity little number…and at $14 it is an easy choice!

Cheers! Open today 12-4!!!

Celebrate simply & elegantly with the Fresne Ducret!!

The bubbles on this Champagne are stunning, but it draws me in every time with its aromatics. Orange zest, honey, almond, cherry, and toast. It is lively and fresh with an elegant mouth feel from a partial malolactic fermentation.

45% Chardonnay, 55% Pinot Noir from the 1er Cru vineyards in Villedommange: Les Loges and Le Mont Teigneux. The result is a pale, brilliant golden wine with lively effervescence and a balance of savory and citrus flavors that make it suitable to accompany anything from some goat cheese to roasted lighter meats to a honeyed dessert.

These Éclat chocolates appeal to all the senses. Beautifully designed and packaged. The sound of the box opening, the crinkle of the inside packaging, invites you into the box. The scent of the chocolate, the sweet buttery smell of caramel, and roasted m aroma of the toasted hazelnut center. The silky texture on my finger tips and then I taste it. It’s as if Pavarotti is singing… #eatdrinkthink #chocolate #foodforthought #artisanalfoods #specialtychocolate
