Merry Christmas!

It's a sparkling wine extravaganza!  Here at the shop, we believe there is never a wrong day of the week for Prosecco or Cava or too casual of a celebration for Champagne.  Now the holiday season is upon us, and there is no excuse for not popping the cork on a nice bubbly.  This Christmas Eve and New Years Eve, we will taste all bubblies, fizzies, sparklers, Champers; whatever you want to call them, we got 'em!  It's on, starting with Part One this Friday from 4 pm - 8 pm.  Start your holiday weekend right with your friends here at East End Wines.

Don't forget, we are offering custom gift baskets featuring wines from our eclectic inventory, along with Texas chocolates and wine accessories.  Call 512-904-9056 or email us at contacts@eastendwinesatx.com and let us put together a last minute Holiday gift for that wine lover on your list!

See you Friday!

Cheers,
Matt and Sam

In addition to Champagne, France makes sparkling wine in almost every one of its wine regions.  This is a great toasting wine from eastern France that's a bit fruity with hints of citrus, almonds and fresh-baked bread. The name "Blanc de Blanc" means it's made only from Chardonnay grapes. Light effervescence, slight hints of crisp green apple and pear, a bit of mineral and some touches of buttered brioche at the finish.  Nice value.

The wine's peach sherbet characteristics are a peachy match for Fried fish with black beans, white rice and sweet fried plantains.
