Ask For Chris or Tony, CHEERS!   BRING A FRIEND or more, everyone welcome.    WE STAR Started our year strongly with the Women's March and support for them in their peaceful marching for equality and control of their own bodies and what they decide for themselves without interference from government or society.   WE SOON REALIZED that the month of January 2017 was not enough time to be heard, be seen, be answered, be fully accepted and respected in public and in our work places. So the whole year of 2017 we have devoted to this worthy pursuit, and looks like 2018 we will continue. We support men, too of course, that goes without saying, especially those that support us all in our quest to finally get women equality , control of their own bodies, equal pay in the workplace, a safe workplace, too where they feel accepted,included, and treated for the wonderful support, work and success they bring to both our workplaces and homes and communities. WE are nothing without each other. We are so much less when not working together for all of our greater good. Yes! Si! Oui! Much to still do.   AND BUBBLY really does make a difference and bring a whole lot of smiles warmth and good cheer to us all.   THIS is PART ONE of a Two--Part BUBBLY Celebration here ( the PART TWO is on Wed. December 27th, 2017 5:30-8:30PM , $10 a person, and with another 25+ new bubblies to experience, not a repeat of tomorrow's tasting ).   WE HOPE TO SEE YOU For Both, that would be wonderful, but we realize some of you will be somewhere else with family and loved ones. We wish you well, we thank you now for all that you have done to be a part of our store and our commitment to be an integral part of this wonderful Cleveland Park NW Washington DC, 20008 community.   SO DO JOIN US HERE TOMORROW and help us celebrate all that is good, humble, honest, transparent, accepting, understanding and wonderful in all of us.   WHAT FOLLOWS BELOW is an old store email I wrote and sent in December 2012, read and enjoy it and check for current availability, vintages and pricing, too. Cheers, TONY  12/5/2017   THIS EMAIL WILL FOCUS on our Big-Theme BUBBLY tasting as we will serve between 35-40 different types and we think that it is important that you have as much information as possible NOW as we start December , finish 2012 and start to think and plan some for 2013/ YES, I am giving everyone the big benefit of the doubt and putting many of you into the proactive category that plans and is organized and ready for anything and everything! Just like us, JOIN US, we can help you accomplish some of these objectives early.     NOTHING WRONG with being ready for things as you never know what things will be thrust upon you at any minute and that you will need to deal with immediately and put everything else that you had planned on hold till you can get to them. I always have to write them down and look at my lists later as I will often forget if I do not do this. That's okay, that's knowing one's limitations, strengths and weaknesses.   I WAS THRILLED to have my email last night from my daughter telling me something that my wife wants for Christmas. Not only did she tell me what it was but also that she would take care of getting it for me. LOVED that and said so in my prompt response.   SO : Let Us Be Here For You EARLY : now, ahora, agora, maintenant, prompto, ici, aqui, with you, avec vous, ...   AND TO START THIS DECEMBER we have BOTH our :        1) Our Annual Bubbly Wine-Tasting, and our weekly      2) Wednesday Still-Wine SALE , combined tomorrow with our BUBBLY One-Day SALE :        TOMORROW'S WED.

That's a big task as we have been doing these annual Big-Theme BUBBLY wine-tastings here now for years. We have sampled and tasted many from all over the world , in all different styles and grape varieties, from bone-dry to quite sweet, from the charmat process to the methode champenoise. It has always been a grand adventure for us as there are great discoveries to be made everywhere in the world, from the very well-known to the obscure and unexpected, shocking, who would have ever believed?!?   THE THING THAT MOST OF YOU DO NOT KNOW is how much work behind the scenes goes into these BUBBLY wine-tastings. We rely heavily on the help of our suppliers, brokers, resp, wholesalers, owners and wine-makers, etcetera to accomplish this as so often they have that which we are less-familiar with. Tomorrow we will have six tables pouring bubbly, sparkling wine and champagne. We want to thank them and their companies for their invaluable time and the samples that they bring to pour that make this the great success that it is each year. We could not do it without them! A big round of applause for them now please!!! Cheers, prost, bottom's up!   HERE ARE SOME OR ALL of our selections : TABLE # ONE :    With Regis of Roanoke Imports :        1) AGAPART  Non-Vintage Les 7 Cru Brut Blanc de Blanc Reserve Grand Cru champagne from Avize, Recoltant-Manipulant, $49.99        2) ANDRE CLOUET,  Non-Vintage Brut Grand Reserve 100% Pinot Noir,  Grand Cru champagne  , Recoltant-Manipulant, from Bouzy , Champagne,  $54.99     ALSO : Available in the Magnum ( 1.5 ml ) bottle size at $114.99 a bottle.      3) MICHEL ARNOULD ,  from Verzenay, Champagne,  Non-Vintage Brut rose, 100% Pinot Noir, Grand Cru champagne , $49.99        4) GATINOIS Rose , from Ay, Champagne, Non-Vintage Brut, 90% Pinot Noir, 10% Chardonnay,  Grand Cru champagne, $62.99        5) GATINOIS Non-Vinatge Brut, from Ay, Recoltant-Manipulant, Grand Cru champagne, $52.99   NOTE : Grand Cru means the very best grapes grown in champagne, and that's 5% or less. Recoltant-Manipulant means that the grapes are owned, grown and harvested by the owners and that they have not bought grapes from others to use in the process. This gives them complete control from start to finish.   In the past these small family-owned vineyards in these small villages of Champagne may have sold their grapes to the larger, better-known champagne houses. Now with many small and quality-oriented distributors they are being encouraged to bottle their own champagne, or at least to sell it here in the United States.   If these small family vineyards in these small villages of Champagne do not know what they are doing , then they would be out of business quickly, so we have to assume that they know what they are doing and that they can do it really well with fewer stumbling blocks as they are in control of everything and not at the mercy of others. This is very important to note as they put all their money, efforts and passion into the making of a great product/ champagne and not into the advertising with glossy pictures in expensive magazines. Please make a note of all of this. Thanks, merci beaucoup!     TABLE # TWO :    With Lucinda of Washburn Imports,          1) EDOUARDO MIROGLIO Winery Brut 2006 Metodo Classico sparkling wine from Bulgaria's Thracian Valley region, a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes, made by an Italian wine-maker, 13% alcohol by volume, $27.99        2) CASTELLROIG Cava Brut sparkling wine from Spain's Barcelona region, $21.99        3) COVIDES Gran Gesta Cava  Non-Vintage Brut dry rose from Spain's Barcelona region, $18.99        4) BOTTER Moscato Bianco IGT Non-Vintage, 8% alcohol by volume,      NOTE : less sweet than many Moscato wines. You know by the higher alcohol level : if it was 5-6% alcohol by volume it would be much sweeter      Vino Frizzante from Italy's southern region called Puglia.     TABLE NUMBER THREE  :  With Arielle of the Country Vintners Imports        1) Non-Vintage Loire Valley French sparkling wine from France's Vouvray, $15.99        2) GRUET New Mexico, U.S.A.

Some also have less pressure in them and so they do not all not need to have corks and wire closures around the corks to keep the bottles safe. Many of these are very popular because they are less expensive and also because they are easier on our systems and with less bite and acidity. They are often not as tart or tangy and may be enjoyed equally as well on their own as with a meal. There are many champagnes that are more acquired tastes and some overtones of bread and yeast and even some vanilla and oxidation and that really benefit enormously from being paired with certain foods. Tomorrow we will have a full assortment and many of these issues may be addressed if you ask one of the people pouring. They may speak specifically to each and every bottle that they pour and give you the information you need of how to best enjoy the bubbly you ultimately decide to buy.   DON'T BE SHY : ask questions, GET ANSWERS! That's why we are still here even with all the competition : to help you and answer your needs and inquiries and to make you time-off more enjoyable and beneficial we hope.        5) CHARLES ORBAN of Champagne's Troissy region, a Non-Vintage Brut, this " Carte Noire " Recoltant-Manipulant French champagne is On Special for $39.99 ( regularly $46.99 a bottle ), Valley de la Marne.
