So, what do you think of the new colours? We went for an "old french school" look. Pretty. We worked really hard to paint the store and we hope you like the results (if you don't, please don't tell me).
Last night was the first - and wonderful - installment of "Cork Dorks". The lucky ones who got in got to hear lots of great info about wine and helpful tips on how to pick the perfect bottle. We got to taste 4 different Cabernet Sauvignon:
Laura Hartwig 2006
Colchagua Valley, Chile
Pacific Breeze 2005
Lake County, California
Grant Bruge 2003
Cameron Vale, Australia (yum)
Classic Clare 1999
Clare Valley, Australia (s'more, please!!)
*** All these wines are available to buy at Lennox Liquor Store in City Square (Cambie & 12th)
The wines were paired with some delicious cheeses:
Britannia 5yr Cheddar (Agropur, Quebec)
Montana (Salt Spring Island Cheese Co., BC)
Reserve La Perade (Fromagerie F.X. Pichet, Quebec)
Harvest Moon (Poplar Grove Cheese, BC)
Parmigiano Reggiano (Italy)
Thank you Sid for such an educational and fun evening! Dont miss the next Cork Dorks on May 7th!!!
Happy weekend everybody.
