Corey talking about La Petite Frog wine

We enjoyed this at the horse show and yes I know this is goofy as can be but we were just having fun.

C.S. Webbspun Enjoys The French Wine

This wine was very floral and absolutely bloomed over my tastebuds. It had a slight orange hue to it and was simply delightful to enjoy on a hot day. I recommend that you all stop by Vinea to purchase the lovely wine and sit under a tree or on the deck and enjoy.


Viognier De Pennautier 2005




It was so good that even the horse couldn't get enough

The Perfect Pairing of Sandwich and Wine

We shared a 10K Lira Sandwich from Corrieri's Formaggeria and a bottle of Domaine Pichot 2005 Vouvray from Vinea Wines in the 12South area. It was a perfect combo that involved the consultation of the folks from both Vinea Wines and Corrieri's to create heaven on our tongues. It was a celebration of a busy day with completed works and orders shipped out.

It was blissful and you absolutely have to try them both, if you haven't already!!!

The 10K Lira is prosciutto cotto, salame toscano, mortadella, coppa and sopressata. For cheese they add provolone and mozzarella. For flavoring they add spinach and peppadew peppers. All served in a big hunk of foccacia drizzled with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, kosher salt, freshly cracked black pepper and italian seasonings.
