Hello, Feastlings.
This week, Kevin pulls out reds from up and down the Americas, all with a delightful heartiness that offers backbone and ageability. And what’s more, one of them is on sale at a price that beats Costco. That, coupled with a parking situation that decidedly also beats the retail giant, makes our wine tasting not only fun and educational, but a time and money bargain as well. If you’d like to join us, the tasting will only set you back a ten-spot, plus tax and gratuity. Please do call, though, if you’re interested, as this will undoubtedly fill up, and web and email reservations won’t hold you a seat. The number is 326-9363, and the tasting is at 2:00 this Saturday the 14th.
