Mitch's Musings: Thanks Mom!

Thanks Mom.... For Everything


 Cheers
to MOM
To help you celebrate Mother's day properly we've put our favorite Rose Champagne on SALE. Today through Sunday purchase this stellar grand cru rose Champagne for $49.99 (a savings of $6 per bottle).

Raise a glass and toast a loved one with gorgeous shades of pink! Join Ancona's Wines and Ann's Place as they sample a beautiful bouquet of rosé on Saturday, May 9 from 2-5pm. A portion of proceeds from the sale of tasting wines will be donated to Ann's Place, a community based support center for cancer patients and their families.

The Tower
When I visited Paris a few weeks back my daughter Alex had one request, she wanted a picture of the Eiffel Tower. I'm thankful for her request or else I probably wouldn't have gone and experienced this awesome iconic architecture.
The Man In The Can Is.......Jerome Rebetez. Jerome is the warped mastermind behind the exquisitely twisted Swiss brewery BMF (Brasserie des Franches-Montagnes). BMF is known for their off axis brews that are extremely complex . I had the pleasure of trying his "Douze" the other night. This Belgian pale ale is brewed with Fleur de sel de Guerande, which is a hand harvested sea salt -- I told you they were off axis. I loved it, but it's not for the faint of heart, it's chock full of "bretty" funk (think horse blanket). Yummy!

Bubble Pop-Up
 
Big thanks to all that stopped by our Champagne pop-up tasting last Tuesday night. If you were unable to attend and want details on what we tasted and perhaps take advantage of the special pricing, just reach out to Codey.

Brunello Bananza

Argiano was the big winner last night at our Brunello tasting. Both their rosso and Brunello were the crowd favorites. (La Poderina Brunello was a close second, and my personal favorite). Want to taste them yourself? Swing by our Wilton store this weekend to sample the La Poderina, and our Ridgefield store to try the Argiano.

Want to learn about out upcoming events? Chat with Monique to get all the details.


'Tis The Season
Still the best margarita mix I've ever tried. It's great mixed with a little club soda as well.

I Swear They Did This Themselves



Until next week...be safe and drink well!
