THE DON'T THINK, DRINK ITALIAN FOOD & WINE EVENT - AUGUST 16

The title might be a little extreme, but we here at CWC believe we can think a little!

Please plan on joining the Hoosier Wine Guy and Tina Bramos on August 16th, at 6:30 P.M., for this wonderful pasta and wine tasting event.

The idea for this event came about while enjoying dinner at the Tina and Richie Bramos home.  The Italians like to say “Wine is food and food is wine”.  We couldn’t agree more!  After having dinner with the Colacchio family (Tina’s parents), we understand why it is a true statement.  Tina and her parents treated us to a delightful family style meal and we enjoyed it so much that we wanted to share a bit of it with you.  During the meal, Tina’s parents gave us ideas for our aperitif and dessert.  These ideas came straight from Grandma and Grandpa, known as Nonna e Nonno.

Tina has volunteered to supply the food, and of course, you know who has the wine! Wink, wink!  So please join us for this fun evening of food and wine.  The price per person is $35++.  Call Carrera Wine Cellar today to reserve your seat.  904.217.4751

A SALUTE TO APHRODITE: A FOOD AND WINE EVENT - AUGUST 23

Here at Carrera Wine Cellar, our motto is “Simple, Fun, and Shared”, and our California Wine Dude has taken the “fun” part of this motto to heart with this class.  He has decided to explore the correlation between wine and certain foods that are known to stimulate the libido.

Aphrodite was the ancient Greek goddess of love, beauty, pleasure, and procreation.  Foods, drink, scents, etc., that are known to increase the desire, are known as aphrodisiacs. 
​
Wine in small amounts will increase your libido and also make you hungry.  So, can eating specific foods get that mojo going?  There are times when we all could use some inspiration to get in the mood and what better way than through the stomach?  For instance, oysters have long been known as a love drug and Casanova and Cleopatra had one thing in common, they both loved oysters.  Some experts are touting watermelon, as well as a little chocolate, as foods that improve one’s love life.  These are just a few of the foods that will be discussed in the class.  In addition, we will explore the idea that the smell of certain red wines effects men and women differently, when it comes to amore.

Call CWC today and reserve your seat for this “stimulating” session!  The fun begins at 6:30 P.M., August 23rd and the cost is $30++ per person.  904.217.4751

HOOSIER WINE GUY ARCHEOLOGY TASTING, PART 2 - AUGUST 26

​The Hoosier Wine Guy is not known for keeping the best organized cellar! Carol has been on a mission to remedy that situation.

Carol has tasked the Hoosier Wine Guy with conducting an archeological dig to pull out and rescue the older vintage bottles. Kind of a raiders of the lost vintage kind of expedition! And so far the expedition has been a success as the Hoosier Wine Guy has unearthed some bottles that are ready to drink. Some may have even passed their peak, but he is ready to explore these finds.

If you are into older wines and have a love of wine archeology, then this will be the event for you! Plan on joining the Hoosier Wine Guy for the second round of his archeology summer series. That’s correct! We did say series, as he has uncovered too many wines for just a single tasting.

This 2nd event in the series, will be on August 26th, and will begin at 4:30 P.M. As with the 1st event, this will be limited to just 12 attendees. The price per person will be just $20.00++ and will also require a purchase of $20.00 or more of wine from the retail shop, on the day of the event.

Call CWC to reserve your spot for this special archeology event! 904.217.4751
