Wine Tasting Please Join Us
Friday July 2nd - 6-9 p.m.
No Charge
Tiasta Torrontes $12
Gorgeous Torrontes from Argentina harvested from 30-year old vines in Mendoza.
Bright tropical flowery fruit and crisp citrus work perfectly with light salads and shellfish.
Pietra Majella Montepulciano d"Abruzzo $8 750ml / $14 Magnum!
We always keep this spicy Italian red on hand, and are happy to now carry it in jumbo size. Medium-weight Montepulciano and Sangiovese with a taut balance of earthiness and acidity. We recommend sipping it with the mushroom and gorgonzola bruschetta at Brie & Bleu.
Cuvee des Colosses $20
We thought this wine would be great at Brie & Bleu with it's lovely French Rhone focus. But we can't pronounce it, can't really describe it, maybe this was just a dumb idea - Mais non! It's simply delicious - Syrah, Carignan et Grenache. As the label says, it's a "Sunny and Fruity Wine!"
Please try it on Friday night.

VALDEON
Spanish Blue
YOU WILL BE REGARDED AS A
GRILL-MASTER LEGEND.
Adding Spanish Blue Cheese to your burgers this Summer will change everything.
A blue cheese from the mountain range, Picos de Europa in
Northern Spain, matured in limestone caves for 2 to 5 months.
With a
distinctively strong, tangy flavor and powerful smell, it is soft and
creamy and has bluish-green streaks running through it.
The rind is
sticky and soft and is gray or brown. Traditionally
wrapped in leaves, such as chestnut or fig leaves.
We have Valdeon in stock and ready for your grilling pleasure.
You Must Try These Amazing Cheeses.

We offer a carefully selected variety of Seriously Fine cigars. Made by experts that have spent a lifetime learning their craft.They are not always the trend setting brands that make all of the headlines - but they are the best examples of their type - anywhere.Please stop in to have a look.
