Fortified Friday – Monteagvdo Amontillado

  • Share/Bookmark

Time to uncork FF’s first sherry. I think it’s unbelievable that from a neutral grape variety like palomino it is possible to produce such a wide variety of beautiful fortified wines. I do understand that it’s not the easiest style of wines but if you have patience to learn about sherry and taste what it has to offer you just might become a fan for life. This Amontillado from Delgado Zuleta is a good wine to kick off the weekend and our first Fortfied Friday Virtual Tasting. For more info, click here.

BRING ON THE SACK!

Fizzypop EXTREME

What happens when you mix prosecco and popping candy? Does it make your stomach explode or does it shoot you across the room like a flying tank of gas? Well, what started as a joke in Bierzo, Spain last summer came into life when our friends sent us some popping candy via snail mail. You know what they say. What happens in Spain makes your mouth pop and stomach cramp half a year later.

Snap, Crackle and Pop!
