Friday September 23rd, 2011

Come celebrate Alanna’s (backwards) Champagne birthday this Friday in-store. Alanna has put together a lineup of wines she loves and wines she’d love to try. Champagne corks will be popping and Alanna will be serving up some Wine Spectator worthy whites and a selection of new world and old world reds.

Our neighbours at Ristorante A Mano are preparing platters of delicious crostinis, shrimp and much more to pair with the wines. Click to see the menu.
