Tastings

Saturday, September 26th, 5:00

We have identified a line-up of great-value, 90+ rated wines from Spain to share with you. These are wines to have in your portfolio, sure to please friends and acquaintances when you bring them as host/hostess gifts. They’ll never know that you spent under $20 (with one important exception). These are so good that you’ll need to buy some for yourselves. And, it’s not that much of an indulgence! Spain continues to offer one of the best values in wine.

Tasting fee: $15, plus tax

Saturday, October 3rd, 7:00
Deirdre Heekin and Caleb Barber chef/owners of Osteria Pane E Salute, Woodstock authors of In Late Winter, We Ate Pears: A Year of Hunger and Love
For the Brattleboro Literary Festival weekend, we are hosting Deirdre and Caleb, authors of In Late Winter, We Ate Pears. More than a cookbook, In Late Winter shares their love of the culture and way of life they experienced during their year in Italy. Caleb and Deirdre offer glimpses of a vibrant Italy: of rolling out pizza dough in an ancient hilltown at midnight while
wild dogs bay in abandoned streets; of the fogged car windows of an
ancient lovers’ lane amid the olive groves outside Prato. The recipes included In Late Winter are every bit as delicious as the memories. Come taste wine as Deirdre shares memories and Caleb prepares small bites to accompany those tastes.
