It's not everyday that you can walk around and try wines from a bunch of countries, all in one nifty location. OK true,
Walt Disney World's Epcot World Showcase is a pretty dang good time, regardless of whether you try wines from each country. But I can't think of another fully awesome wine experience that can compare to over 600 wines from 12+ countries, all for one single ticket price. The
5th Annual New York Wine Expo is your portal for crazy, round-the-world, like-a-G6-style wine tasting!
What does that actually translate to in actual wineries on this fine weekend of
March 2-4, you might ask...how about
150+ vintners, along with tons of
gourmet food booths, and numerous
wine seminars with which to treat your favorite
Vinopanion. Now, it's only because I like you, but I have a special gift: type in the code
VINOPANION for $15 off Friday night's festivities!

Bubbly is a beautiful thing. Sparkling wine has always been considered a wine of celebration; its intriguing bubbles rising up to toss forth a froth of scented effervescence, enlivening spirits at any accompanying event. For me however, bubbly, bubbly, and more bubbly is the way that I prefer to shimmy through life. My lady Elizabeth Fontaine, the beguiling star behind the brightness of my life, would only agree, with a most sensible of nods. Bubbles are her vinous companion, and at times, her artistic muse. We go through stretches where there is a bottle of bubbly to accompany each day...the other nice thing about sparkling wine is its low percent alcohol. ;-)
