We know, this last stretch of winter is rough. Just when you think you hear the birds tweeting about spring you are blasted with another arctic chill.

This can sometimes make Sunday’s turn from a day reserved for socializing on the town to a day reserved to snuggling as deep as you can possibly get into your covers. And while we respect that, sometimes you need something to entice you to get out of bed…

So how about tasting some wine on Sunday’s at Via Umbria?

Our friend and wine connoisseur, Dick Parke, will be joining us in the store every Sunday from 2 to 5, offering complementary tastings of wines he has hand selected from our stock.

Up this week? Vincastro Umbria Rosso and the Adanti Nispero both just $14 and the same blend of 90% Sangiovese and 10% Merlot. Stay tuned as we learn more about these delicious wines later this week!
