Tipsy hosts wine tastings every Saturday at the store but this time, it’s three wine tastings plus a $30 weekender special (3 bottles of wine). So, yes, get ready for Friday (1/10); a Greek wine theme on Saturday (1/11)–Brooklyn Kolache is bringing tasty spinach & feta kolaches to go with Tipsy’s white and red Greek wines; and next Tuesday (1/14) tastings. Here are the details:
Happy Hour Friday
TGIF! Tipsy’s kicking off the weekend with a sustainable, silky red: Vincola Corellana Zorzal Graciano
($12). It’s full of soft red cherries and a little kick of pepper; pair it with your hearty January meals, particularly pork or beef dishes. Come 7pm today.
Saturday Sippers & Bites: Going Greek
Greek wine is still a bit of a mystery to many, but Tipsy has two bottles that that “customers are crazy about.” PLUS Brooklyn Kolache Co. is serving up some delicious mini feta & spinach kolaches because everyone deserves hors d’oeurves and wine on a Saturday. Stop by tomorrow, Saturday, from 3–7pm and try them; they’ll remind you that summer does exist (or prompt you to buy a plane ticket to Santorini).
Semeli Mountain Sun White ($14) – This fruity white comes from the Peloponnese region and is ripe with crisp lemon and melon with some stony undertones to mellow it all out.
Moraitis Paros Reserve Red ($16) – From the Greek island of Paros, this fun blend of red and white grapes yields a wine full of cherries and chocolate.
Tuesday Tasting
Tuesday January 14th is all about deep, red fruit so Tipsy is bringing out one of their favorite barberas: Giribaldi Rie Barbera Superior ($18). Come bask in some cherry and raspberry flavors with Tipsy from 5–8pm.
New Weekender!
Tipsy’s latest combination comprises three bottles that have a combined value of $40, but they will let you have it for $30. Obviously this means that you have no excuse not to try these:
Hugues Beaulieu Picpoul (regularly $11) – Zesty and spicy all at once, with a hint of honey.
Vinicola del Sannio Aglianico (regularly $14) – Tipsy drank this bottle at their tasting last week.
Valle las Acequias Malbec Robles (regularly $15) – Bright notes of plums and raspberries dominate this wine, with the most luscious hint of chocolate – yum!
