Tim Korby
Julio's Wine Director

Yep, this will be another busy week of wine tasting at Julio’s Liquors. Tonight, Julie Handel will be heading up our Franciscan “Magnificat” components blending seminar.

Then make sure to show up this Saturday between 3pm and 6pm (re-scheduled from last week because of the snow) to meet the world famous (and good friend) Melvyn Master of Tortoise Creek & the organic wines called “Tiamo”. He will be tasting Tiamo Chianti and Pinot Grigio from Italy and Tortoise Creek Pinot Noir, Viognier and Carignan from France.

Then on Sunday is our biggest wine event of the year “Julio’s wine Gala” (formerly known as the blizzard of wine). This will be a huge event: 26 tables with 6 different wines at each and food supplied by Arturo’s Ristorante. We will start at noon so that you can be home to watch the Pats by 4:00pm.

Featured Staff Pick
by Laurette Cossaboon, Wine Associate

Guidobono 2009 Barbera d’Alba, $10.99
The color of this wine is an intense dark ruby-red, almost purple. It has a beautiful nose full of dark red fruits and “grapes.” In the mouth it has distinctive black cherry and blackberry fruits, slight earthiness and a little bit of grip on the palate to keep it honest. Lively acidity adds a bit of fun. In a nutshell, it is flavorful, balanced and the perfect wine for a casual dinner. Buy it on line Now!
