Turkey Treats

Time to get ready to trim your farm raised, free ranged turkey, set an abundant table for your multitude of guests, and make sure to have plenty of wine on hand for the relatives (or to deal with them). Not sure what value wines would be best to get you through this favorites of fall occasions? Advanced Sommelier Jenny Benzie recommends a handful of wine selections that will grace your Thanksgiving dinner table with laud and praise. Naveran Brut Vintage Cava is a steal of a deal when it comes to sparkling wine. Made by proprietor Michel Guilleron Parellada, this is a blend of the indigenous grapes from the Penedés region of Spain. Xarello adds to the body, Macabea gives it an aromatic intensity, and Parellada lends acidity to the wine. Cava is made in the same production method as Champagne, in which the secondary fermentation that creates the bubbles occurs in the bottle itself. Bodegas Naveran is a premium...Read More >

Sommelier Cinema Sips

Movies can be like fine wine.  Depth, character, and an unexpected ending are all qualities that can be found in both of these creative genres.  What makes each of them unique is the artistic style of the director who has a vision from start to finish of the project.  This is played out by a multitude of influencers involved in the ever-evolving plot.  If all goes well in the initial stages of development, post-production is typically more of a minimalistic, hands-off approach.  The final cut is the culmination of hours, days, and months of hard work, determination, and passion all bottled up into one. The annual Nantucket Film Festival gives us the opportunity to experience movies that we may never have otherwise seen, much less heard about.  Here you have the opportunity to meet and greet with the filmmakers themselves, attend round table discussions to learn more about life behind the scenes, and discover stories that are told through the...Read More >

Seaside Sips for Summer

Only five Fridays left until Labor Day Weekend.  Makes you think about what remains on your Nantucket To-Do Summer Bucket List.  You mapped it out at the beginning of season, but your busy social schedule, kids at camp and weekly houseguests got the best of you and your precious time spent here on the island.   Time to regroup, reassess and refresh your priorities before summer ends.  What better way to do that than with a lovely glass of rosé in hand to toast the next adventures and amazing memories you will be creating by the waters of our fair isle. While spending the day on the sand has its glorious moments, there is something to be said about the calm and stillness of enjoying the water in Nantucket Harbor.  This extends well past where the Hy-Line Ferry and visiting boats dock close to town. A drive out to Monomoy, Polpis or the Wauwinet area will keep you on the...Read More >

Rosé After Labor Day: After Summer Sippers

DRINK PINK FOR THE HOLIDAYS Rosé isn’t just about warm sultry summer days on sunny beaches anymore. Also sometimes referred to as ‘Nantucket Water,’ this refreshing category of wine, as an alternative to red or white, has become part of the glamorous lifestyle associated with life on our magical island. Who says any of this has to end now that we are into fall? Definitely not us on this end! As the sun begins to set a little sooner in the evening and the night air becomes crisp and worthy of your favorite cozy zip sweatshirt, now is the time to start the transition to fall weather drinking rosés that offer a little more substance than your light and easy-drinking summer sipper.
