This week we will feature two fine California Cabernets plus some other surprises. Yes - American wine folks!

 

McMannis Bottles 

McManis Family Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon $11

The McManis family has been farming in northern California's Ripon and Lodi since 1938.  

The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon is purple-red in color, with a bright hue.  

 

The nose is filled with mocha, chocolate, and caramel - contributed from aging in French and American oak. Blackberry and Blueberry fruit is also evident.  

 

 

The round creamy mouthfeel is accompanied by red and black berry fruit flavors.  

A terrific Cab at this price and quite expressive and elegant.

  

 

Allison SteltznerSteltzner Estate Grown Cabernet Sauvignon $36

 

Always fun to compare different price points.  

 

From the makers of our ever-popular Steltzner Claret, this wine is made from all estate-grown grapes from the small Steltzner family vineyards in the Stag's Leap District of Napa.  

 

 

 

 

Black cherry and plummy flavors with cedar and spice unmistakably Napa with and incredible round mouth feel. Aged for 24 months in French barrell.

* BEST CUBAN SANDWICH IN NEW LONDON 

The big find this week was an absolutely perfect Cuban Sandwich at The Copperwood Grill. That's right - The Copperwood Grill.

With my eyes closed each juicy bite convinced me that I was in a little bodega  

on a side street in Havana.

* Hygienic Art Gallery    

Great new shows and always something to see - please visit the latest show  Common Ground: Six Artists interpret New London exhibits six distinct disciplines of artistic expression while collaborating on one subject- The City of New London. Though the exhibition consists of artists from Poland, China, and across America, each artist-chosen for their unique style, choice of medium, and exceptional quality-lives in the city, working, creating- adding to an already diverse and multicultural artistic community.

* Finally - we kicking around ideas for Brie & Bleu. The latest incarnation might be Wine Dinners to be held through out the summer. We are thinking that rather than offer regular dinner service  - perhaps we will have themed wine dinners on a weekly basis. For example - Friday & Saturday one week might be Italian. Featuring only Italian food and wine. Then maybe a French weekend - and so on.

Nothing has been finalized - but our general plan is to limit regular service during the week and focus on service for the weekends. 

 

We have a few other plans up our sleeve - but of course your comments and suggestions are more than welcome. EMAIL US

 

It's going to be a great Summer here in New London - we can hardly wait.
