Valentines Day
DONT PANIC. I am on the job and looking out for all y'all
(men).
VeF together with D&B
Chocolates has you covered. We will be doing a wine
and chocolate pairing this weekend.
To go with our wines, Michelle will be offering chocolates
filled with
- Raspberry Cream
- Cherry Cordial
- Orange Cream
- Orange Jelly
Furthermore, we have put together a bit of an OMG-I-forget-everything-package
for the more distracted of God's famous first try (of course
everybody knows the famous Russian saying about the first
pancake - never comes out right!). $9.99 What is it? Well,
it is not an empty hand and a smile borrowed from a dense
sheep, that is what is not. It is also almost kawai cute.
AND for a remunerative afterthought, we can slap a stuffed
animal on to it, if you think that will help (go with God!).
Other Completely Unrelated News
Bunny and Jay at Around Your Kitchen have brought in something
Über-cool. They are now offering prime olive oil (Greek)and
balsamic vinegar (Italia). You buy the oil and vinegar,
receive a bottle and a bag and can refill your bottle from
the big containers as needed!
Valentines Weekend Wines
All red or pink.
ARIA, Pinot Noir, Spain. A complex,
dry and flavorful sparkler, versatile with food and delicious
by itself as an apéritif. The character of this wine
is most strongly influenced by the elegance of Pinot Noir
for structure on the palate and extended length on the finish.
Righteously Rose, California.
A lively and floral wine, scented with strawberries and
rose petals. Cool stainless steel fermentation maximizes
the floral notes and retains the crisp acidity. A touch
of barrel fermentation for a portion of the lot gives this
wine a creamy mid-palate.
Pinot Evil, Pinot Noir, France.
Grand stuff, grand price, strong chocolate and black cherry
notes.
Carmenere Reserve, Chile. A particularly
intense red. Tones of green pepper to ripe fruit notes (raspberry,
blueberry, cherry and plum), as well as coffee and chocolate.
In palate, the wine is soft, with great concentration and
a long powerful finish.
Coming Arrivals
Moscato d'Asti - the one in the gold, faceted bottle.
