SUMMARY:Southern Italy Sale and Wine Tasting
DESCRIPTION:Most wine enthusiasts today are familiar with the wines of Tuscany\, the Piedmont\, Lombardy and other northern regions of Italy. In ancient times\, however\, Southern Italy was the center of the wine world\, thanks to the efforts of Greek colonists who introduced grapes and winemaking techniques to regions of what most people know today as the foot of the Italian boot. \nWith the fall of the Roman Empire\, however\, southern wine production\, along with the region’s economy\, entered a period of decline that has persisted up to today. The good news is that the grapes introduced by the ancient Greeks are still grown\, and talented southern winemakers are producing fabulous wines\, some of which rival the greats of the north in quality and price\, if not notoriety. \nTo help make up for that lack\, the Colonial Spirits wine team is holding a 20% off sale of six or more bottles of the red wines from four of Southern Italy’s top regions\, Campania\, Puglia\, Basilicata\, and Molise. The sale starts are 9:00 am this coming Saturday and ends at 6:00 pm Sunday. Customers are also invited to sample a selection of the sale wines at a tasting event from 1:00 – 4:00 on Sunday. Join us and take advantage of this opportunity to learn about and purchase some of the finest red wines that Italy has to offer.

SUMMARY:Rhone and Rhone Style Wine Weekend
DESCRIPTION:Although they share the same river\, the Northern and Southern Rhône Valley are quite different in terms of climate\, soils\, topography\, and grape varieties. There are also significant price differences between the wines of the two areas\, with those of the North being more expensive. The Southern Rhone\, on the other hand\, is much more important in terms of quantity. Not only does the region produce more than 53 million gallons of wine annually\, its appellations — from Côtes du Rhône Villages to Gigondas and Chateauneuf du Pape are known for their quality and value. \nIndeed\, the wines of the Southern Rhône are so popular that producers in other regions\, most notably California and Australia\, have adopted its grapes and winemaking techniques. To celebrate the Southern Rhône\, Colonial Spirits will be offering a 20% discount on six or more bottles of every wine from the area this coming Saturday and Sunday. The same discount also applies to those produced by “Rhône Rangers” in California and Australia. Finally\, for customers interested in trying before buying\, the wine team will be conducting a tasting of selected Rhone wines\, as well as those of similar style from other regions\, from 1:00 – 4:00 pm on Sunday the 25th. We look forward to seeing you there. \n

SUMMARY:Malbec Weekend
DESCRIPTION:Not since the California Chardonnay boom of the 1990s has the wine industry experience a New World success to match the popularity of Argentine Malbecs\, the grape that put Argentina on the wine map and helped make the country the world’s fifth largest wine producer. \nWhat most wine enthusiasts don’t know\, however\, is that the Malbec grape originated in France\, either Bordeaux or Burgundy\, but it is Cahors that Malbec calls home. Cahors produces an excellent wine made from a minimum of 70% ‘Cot’\, as the grape is called locally\, but Argentina’s success has led some French producers to prominently display the word “Malbec” on their labels. \nIn any event\, customers will have the opportunity to stock up on Malbecs from both countries this coming weekend with a 20% discount on six or more bottles. In addition\, there will also be a Malbec tasting on Sunday the 11th from 1 pm to 4 PM.

SUMMARY:Sangiovese Wine Weekend
DESCRIPTION:It’s safe to say that even people who rarely drink wine have sampled or at least know the name Chianti. Strangely enough\, however\, few wine enthusiasts are familiar with Sangiovese\, the grape from which Chianti\, and a number of other Italian wines\, is made\, either as the sole grape or as part of a blend. This lack of awareness is due to a number of factors\, starting with the fact that Sangiovese\, the most widely planted grape in Italy\, is known by many different names; Brunello\, Prugnolo Gentile\, and Nielluccio being just a few. \nIt is in Tuscany\, however\, where Sangiovese reigns supreme and it is that area that the Colonial Sprits wine team has chosen to feature in this coming weekend’s World Wine Regions sale and tasting. As is the case with every regional wine event\, every Sangiovese-based wine in the store will be available at a 20% discount for six or more bottles. We will also be conducting a tasting of a few featured wines on Sunday the 27th from 1:00 to 4:00 pm.

SUMMARY:Pinot Grigio/Gris Wine Weekend
DESCRIPTION:Although most wine drinkers are familiar with the popular Italian white varietal Pinot Grigio\, few are aware that the grape is a mutated form of the Pinot Noir from the Burgundy region of France\, where it’s called Pinot Gris (grey pinot). This widely disseminated and increasingly fashionable grape is grown around the world to make a soft\, gently perfumed wines with more color and substance than most other whites. This coming weekend\, the Colonial Spirits wine team is offering customers a 20% discount on 6 or more bottles of Pinot Gris / Pinot Grigio. If you’d like to sample before purchasing\, we will be hold in a tasting of PGs from different regions from 1 pm to 4 pm on Sunday the 13rd.

SUMMARY:Alsace Weekend 08/08-08/09
DESCRIPTION:  \nImagine that you have been transported to a wine region in Northern Europe bordered by the Rhine River.  The towns and villages have names like Heiligenstein\, Kirchheim\, and Zellenberg\, and Riesling is the dominant grape. Given the circumstances\, you’d probably think that you were in Germany\, but you would be wrong. The place is Alsace\, and although it has been occupied by Germany at various times throughout history\, the region\, its spirit and wines are decidedly French. \nHowever\, unlike the other wine producing regions of the country\, and most of Europe for that matter\, the wines of Alsace (predominantly white except for some Pinot Noir) are named for the grape varieties from which they are made\, i.e.\, Riesling\, Pinot Gris\, Pinot Blanc\, Sylvaner\, Muscat\, and Gewurztraminer. \nThis Saturday and Sunday\, every Alsatian wine in the store will be on sale at a 20% discount for six or more bottles. In addition\, there will be a tasting of Rieslings and other white wines of the region from 1:00 – 4:00 pm on Sunday. \nOne last note\, people who think that Rieslings are sweet have probably never had the Alsatian variety\, which are dry. Even the region’s late harvest and Sauterne styles have a steely backbone unique to Riesling that adds a distinctive complexity to the overall flavor profile. So if you’ve never tried Alsatian wines\, or are a fan of what the region has to offer\, stop by the store this weekend.

SUMMARY:New Zealand Weekend + Tasting
DESCRIPTION:New Zealand is one of the most isolated wine producing regions on the planet. It’s also one of the smallest\, accounting for less than 1% of the world crop. In spite of such apparent disadvantages\, the Kiwis manage to sell two thirds of their crop in the world market. Obviously\, they’re doing something right. \nTo find out what that might be\, stop by the store this Sunday from 1:00 to 4:00 pm and sample some New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs\, the wine that put the country’s wine industry on the map. If you already know about and appreciate the crystalline flavors and bracing acidity that make New Zealand’s outstanding white unique\, you can also take advantage of our Saturday and Sunday 20% discount on six or more bottles on every New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc in the store.

SUMMARY:Loire Valley Weekend + Tasting
DESCRIPTION:Flowing from the interior highlands of the Massif Central west to the Bay of Biscay west to the North Atlantic Coast\, the Loire Valley is France’s most diverse wine region. With the exception of its famous Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé\, however\, the wines of “The Garden France” tend to lack the attention they deserve\, an oversight that Colonial Spirits’ Wine team hopes to correct. Therefore\, on  Saturday\, June 27nd\, and Sunday\, June 28th\, we will be offering 20% off of 6 bottles or more of any our Loire Valley wines. In conjunction with this sale there will be a couple of tastings of the region’s broad selection of dry and sweet white\, red and rosé still wines\, as well as some examples of its many sparkling crémants.
