Each Saturday at 2:00 pm, we open four different wines and talk about them- where they come from, who makes them, and what makes them special. A couple of light hors d’oeuvres accompany the tasting and those who attend are eligible for discounts on the wines. Reservations are required, and web and email reservations will not guarantee you a seat, to please make your reservation by calling (520) 326-9363
It's not just that it happens to be an appropriate pun to the season; Grenache happens to be a perfect red wine to accompany your holiday spread. There are lighter, softer ones to accompany turkey; intense and focused ones to handle the richest roast beef, and a spectrum of others to go with whatever veggie, fish or fowl you're considering putting on your table.
New Year's Eve isn't the only time to drink sparkling wine, but it sure is a lovely excuse! Come taste four sparkling wines from four different countries to drink now, or on New Year's Eve, or any time thereafter.

As purveyors of wine, we taste a lot them, and we've noticed a discrepancy: the wines we love aren't necessarily the wines that people buy. Sometimes it's the price. Sometimes it's the label. But we've noticed a nearly certain deal-killer, and this week, we're here to right that wrong.
Ciao, ragazzi. Last week featured a bunch of delicious Sicilian wines, and this week, we head to the mainland. If you're sitting around the house wondering what to drink with your pasta and red sauce or those roasted meats and sausages you're planning on serving, this tasting is worthy of your consideration.
You may or may not be aware that Sicily is on the same parallel that we are, and its grasslands are peppered with cacti—if you cropped a photo to exclude the shoreline and the volcano, you might think you were looking at Sonoita. This week we'll be opening four treats from our sister Island, two reds and two whites, and you'll undoubtedly discover that even across the world, we're not that different after all.
While most of us regard Grenache as having its figurative and literal roots in France, not everyone realizes that Garnacha can be found scattered across Spain as well, and it turns out that Spanish Garnachas are delicious.
