I have a few things to mention!

My sister’s wedding shower went very well. I think everyone had a good time save for the tiredness of being out until 2am+ for the bachelorette party the night before. Note to brides: do not do activities in this order. The experience of hanging out with my sister and her friends at various bars and clubs in downtown Chicago was fun and I am so glad I drank water for pretty much the whole night. :)

Also, our wine site turns one years old today. We’ve been keeping up with wine dinners, tastings and events for 12 straight months at about 22 posts a month… a little more posting than this blog has seen, I’m afraid.

I have been very busy with client work over these past few weeks (a good thing!) and we have decided to stick with posting about our travels and food/restaurant reviews here as most of our other escapades are available on Facebook and Twitter and I just don’t have the time to double post things.

We are planning three international trips for this fall, so things are going to get pretty busy around here soon… stay tuned!

Surprisingly, I do not have much experience with I Surprisingly, I do not have much experience with Italian sparkling rosés. This one from @thegioiawines was absolutely lovely and did not disappoint even after being open for a day. Mixed berry, rose, and almond with a hint of cassis. Medium acidity with a pleasant effervescence. Cheers to new (to me) bubbles! 🥂
