What makes a wine beautiful?
To The Black Olive all of this is important as we strive to build the best wine list the Mid-Atlantic has ever seen! Follow us as we reach for that goal.
If You Missed the First Wine/Purchasing Dinner, FEAR NOT, More Are To Come: Here’s what you missed…
The wine cellar, questions and answers, the beautiful Lolonis story, Lolonis Fume Blanc, grilled scallops, the hard to get Lolonis 2007 Chardonnay, everything organic (all night long), grilled lobster, greek salad, the indisputably complex and lusty Lolonis Orpheus 2005 (predominantly Petit Syrah), conversations about culture and local politics, the amazing cheese halumi, firm enough to be grilled, with tzatziki and grilled zuccini and
squash, Lolonis Zinfandel, conversation about states and race and spheres of influence, Lolonis Merlot, grilled lamb, Lolonis Cabernet, the deepest chocolate cake you have ever had, and the amazing and rare Lolonis Zinfandel Port, and things i missed…
I left out one thing you missed, though, because I want to talk about it separately, as it was a special discovery for those able to be patient with what might or might not be a wine that opens up over time. The 2001 Petros. Its time may be here and it will most certainly shine in the future. More on that later.
