Sustaining Nantucket | One Sip at a Time

Supporting our community ‘One Sip at a Time’ is the mission of Cheers to Charities, an initiative created by Épernay Wine & Spirits and begun in 2018. The concept was originally designed in that the first Thursday in-store tasting of every month was dedicated to a local non-profit on Nantucket Island in order to raise awareness for that organization and also fun-draise for their charitable cause. This initiative has hence evolved in that you can now support the causes of Cheers to Charities throughout the entire month that the non-profit is being featured, making your impact more significant and long-lasting.  More on that later… For now, we would like to introduce you to our Cheers to Charities benefactor for this month, SUSTAINABLE NANTUCKET.  The mission of Sustainable Nantucket is Cultivating, Educating, and Promoting environmentally responsible choices… making a big difference on a small island.   What better way to showcase their important impact on the island than with sustainable wine pairings!...Read More >

Stress-Free Wine Selections for Your Easter Meal

Knowing what you are serving for your main course is only part of the battle in pairing a wine with your Easter meal.  Other concerns may be what time of day are you eating, what do you usually like to drink, and how many drinkers are in the house.  While this last part may not be as much of a concern these days with our physical distancing practices, it is always important to take into consideration to ensure you have enough wine on hand to celebrate the holiday accordingly.   You may not need that extra bottle to deal with your lovely mother-in-law this year, however, it might be good practice to have it on hand for whenever the next occasion arises (did someone say virtual wine tasting on Thursday?). #WINEWITHJENNY VIRTUAL TASTING EXPERIENCE THURSDAY, APRIL 9th | 6 PM | FACEBOOK + INSTAGRAM LIVE FEATURING STRESS-FREE WINE SELECTIONS FOR YOUR EASTER MEAL, NO MATTER WHAT’S ON THE MENU While Thanksgiving...Read More >

Spooky Spirits

You don’t have to be a kid to enjoy Halloween, even on Nantucket. With all the haunted houses and old buildings on the island, there are sure to be more spirits around than you could even possibly imagine. To keep your mind off ghosts (and perhaps goblins), Advanced Sommelier Jenny Benzie suggests a selection of ‘spooky spirits’ to sample that won’t scare your taste buds, or your wallet! If you have ever been to a fine dining restaurant in Italy, you may have been offered a glass of Grappa at the end of the meal. Grappa is primarily served after dinner as a digestivo, or added to an espresso for a caffé corretto, in order to aid in digestion of heavy meals. While other countries can make a similar product under another name, Grappa is unique in that it can only come from Italy and must be fermented, then distilled from pomace. The pomace is whatever is leftover after pressing...Read More >
