Love is in the air...and bubbles! This week the Winos will be discussing etiquette regarding the Bubbly and the joys of effervescence. Zardetto Prosecco is our featured beverage, so pour a flute & join the fun!

Jennifer Finnell · 2:00 AM

Yayyy!!! It's cocktail time!

Molly Wolfgram · 2:00 AM

Well thank goodness!!

Jennifer Finnell · 2:01 AM

Greetings, Winos! In a special tribute to Valentine's Day, and per Miss Wolfgram's suggestion, we'll be sipping the bubbly this evening - namely Prosecco. Cheers!

Jennifer Finnell · 2:01 AM

I happen to be drinking mine out of a hand-etched flute, made by Woodsy Wino, aka me. lol

Jennifer Finnell · 2:03 AM

I just read something interesting about the "Victorian Coupe" style of champagne glass, though...the shallow kind that sloshes all over (well, if you're me, anyway)...

Jennifer Finnell · 2:03 AM

"Legend has it the shape of the glass was modelled on the breast of Marie Antoinette..." Hmm...lol

Jennifer Finnell · 2:04 AM

FYI, folks, Molly's having some internet troubles due to that raging GA blizzard. :)

Jennifer Finnell · 2:04 AM

So someone's going to have to keep me company, here. I hate to drink alone. I mean, I will, but... :)

“I read about that too today...."according to legend, designed using a mould of Marie Antoinette's left breast as a birthday present to her husband, Louis XVI – tends to disperse the nose and over-oxygenate the wine."”

Jennifer Finnell · 2:05 AM

Lucky Louis! lol

Jennifer Finnell · 2:05 AM

Okay, what's everybody got to toast with this evening?

Jennifer Finnell · 2:08 AM

Well, since we're actually all supposed to learn something at these little soirees, who knows where Prosecco comes from? And what's the difference between sparkling wine & champagne?

Jennifer Finnell · 2:08 AM

If y'all pass that little test, then we can just get on with the drinking...and perhaps bashing on Valentine's Day? lol

Molly Wolfgram · 2:12 AM

Bashing V-Day is my fav.

Jennifer Finnell · 2:12 AM

Me too! Welcome back!

Molly Wolfgram · 2:12 AM

I feel loved everyday...no need for a Hallmark-y day to acknowledge that.

Jennifer Finnell · 2:13 AM

Well, Moll, we just learned how those shallow champagne flutes were designed around Marie Antoinette's breast. Aside from that, I think you're all caught up...

Jennifer Finnell · 2:14 AM

For sure!

Molly Wolfgram · 2:14 AM

So who is a HUGE Valentines Day fan???

Molly Wolfgram · 2:14 AM

We love you regardless.

Jennifer Finnell · 2:15 AM

Well, I do love an excuse to buy lingerie. And Prosecco ...

“I like it for the gifts. Why should I lie?”

Jennifer Finnell · 2:16 AM

Of course, I consider random Tuesday's as good an excuse as any for indulgence, so...

@Bridget LOL!

Molly Wolfgram · 2:17 AM

So friggin hilarious!

Jennifer Finnell · 2:17 AM

Molly, before you came back I was trying to get the "learning" out of the way, so we can just get on with the drinking...

Molly Wolfgram · 2:17 AM

So, I know all my GA friends are unlikely to have the Zardetto on hand.

Jennifer Finnell · 2:18 AM

I couldn't find it either. So I went with Santa Margherita A) because it was familiar and B) because it had a coupon for the Pinot Grigio!

Molly Wolfgram · 2:19 AM

Can't beat a coupon. I do not blame you at all :)

Molly Wolfgram · 2:19 AM

Fortunately, I knew I could get Zardetto at a local shop.

Jennifer Finnell · 2:20 AM

Well, I would have flown out to GA to get some, but I just don't know how you people survive the winters out there!

Molly Wolfgram · 2:20 AM

Horrible ice storm.

Molly Wolfgram · 2:21 AM

I still had time to make it to the store for extra wine :)

Jennifer Finnell · 2:21 AM

You know what I find cheerful on a nasty winter day? Bubbles. Little tiny bubbles floating in alcohol.

Jennifer Finnell · 2:21 AM

Molly Wolfgram · 2:36 AM

I used to only drink Champagne...but every once and a while.

Molly Wolfgram · 2:36 AM

Because I'm cheap.

Molly Wolfgram · 2:37 AM

I found Prosecco to be a less expensive alternative.

Jennifer Finnell · 2:37 AM

Good call. I find it delightful. Champagne/Sparkling is definitely not an area to be really cheap unless you know what you're buying. Have had some pretty bad hangovers on the cheap stuff!
