Tasting in Newport RI Wednesday August 26th hosted by Newport Wine Cellar @ Le Petit Café Eat.Drink.Think at Newport Wine Cellar Le Petit Gourmet & Café Tasting & Discussion: The Wines of Southwest France Ed Addis & Barbara Selig Wine Traditions 4-6pm Wednesday August 26th at Le Petit Café information: 401-619-3966 Seek great values, but don’t compromise taste, integrity, or quality If you want to drink wine everyday, like I do, you have to seek out wines that are not expensive but are still satisfying, flavorful, complex, food wines. There are more options than you think, thanks to people like Wine Traditions owners Ed & Barbara, who ave been importing delicious wines from France and beyond, and contributing to a rising appreciation for the shared experience good wine and food. Wine Traditions Ltd. was created in 1996, the collaborative project of Edward Addiss and Barbara Selig. The philosophy of Wine Traditions is to discover independent winemakers whose passion for their vineyard and mastery of their winemaking craft combine to create a product that is a beautiful expression of the land from which it comes. They believe their portfolio demonstrates that wonderful wines can be found beyond well known appellations and need not be over priced. For them, wine is meant to be enjoyed with dinner, everyday and at prices that make it an appropriate component of the meal. It continues to be my goal to provide access not only to great food and wine, but to a community of people who are inspired by and driven to find good ingredients, responsibly grown, and thoughtfully produced. It is a goal that is easier than you think to achieve because so many people share this basic idea that we should support independent, family owned and operated businesses, farms, and vineyards. I know this is a theme you have heard before from me, but I must continue to wax on poetic about the work these people do and the wonderful products that I am fortunate to have on my shelves because of their hard work! I hope you will join me in welcoming Ed & Barbara to Newport & to the café on Wednesday & take part in a tasting of five great value French wines. It is a good chance to eat, drink, and think! This is a free event, no reservations requires. Come by and have a sip & say hello! cheers, Maria Newport Wine Cellar & Le Petit Gourmet| | 401-619-3966 | newportwinecellar.com STAY CONNECTED: Follow us on Facebook and Instagram @newportwinenchz
