Wine is civilization.
It is joy, it is pleasure, it is life.
It has been produced and enjoyed for
over 7000 years, occupying a central
place on the tables of warriors,
leaders, scholars, and saints.
While it is certainly a world-wide
phenomenon today, it is only right
to acknowledge wine’s Old World roots.
This Friday, April 12th, then, your
tasting event features 7 wonderfully
delicious Old World wines. It’s just
ten bucks, including hors d’ouevres,
and runs any time from 4-9:30 pm.
Check these out!
