Sommelier, author and educator Hillary Zio takes us on a virtual tour across Italy’s Piedmont regionby decoding labels and breaking down its subregions, viticulture and grape varietals. Grab a glass of wine and sip while you learn!
In the third stop of our wine toting tour, we enjoyed a cozy afternoon at D’Parma, a delightful BYO restaurant in Winthrop, Mass. Join us as we pair three of our new Italian reserve and collector wines with some Italian comfort food favorites.
Maia’s Cellar is a column written by our friend Maia Gosselin, Wine Director at Damariscotta River Grill and owner of Sip Wine Education. Fall is upon us! The air is crisp and the days are getting shorter. It’s the time of year for bonfires, apple picking, tailgating and big pots of chili. It’s also the season when we say au revoir to light, summery wines and shift to style...
We're kicking off our BYOW series, where we hit some of the East Coast's best BYO restaurants, armed with the wines that pair best with the dishes they're famous for. First up is The Lobster Pool, a classic seafood shack in Rockport, MA with buttery lobster rolls and beautiful views.
Lately, it seems like everyone is talking about Rosé. And rightfully so. Rosé is delicious, perfect for the summertime, and is growing like crazy in the US! BUT... there's another wine that is equally as delicious and is growing almost as fast as Rosé. It just doesn't get talked about quite as much (yet). That wine is Prosecco; an Italian sparkler from the northeast of Italy.
