Wine & Cheese of the Week

Hi Prosecco – Sale: $6.99 ea Our wine of the week is another offering from the prestigious Veneto wine region in Italy; an elegant sparkling wine, perfectly refreshing on a hot summer evening. Hi Prosecco boasts an intense scent, predominantly floral and fruity with hints of apricot and honey. The color is intriguing as well, with bits of green reflections within the golden hues. The taste of this dry sparkling is fresh and fruity with light cedar and mineral undertones. Obvious food pairings include appetizers and desserts of any kind, but Prosecco is quite versatile and can be enjoyed with seafood, Asian food, or green salads. Fontal – Sale: $7.99 lb Originally the French version of Fontina, Fontal has developed into a distinct cheese of its own. A semi-hard cheese, its texture is tender and smooth, partially due to the tiny holes throughout. It has a mild, nutty flavor that is almost sweet with a touch of tartness. The tang in the taste comes out particularly when the cheese is melted. It is superb on Panini, or cubed and served with salad. Join us Friday evenings from 4-6 for a tasting of both!
