The wine list for Friday is just below these few items of interest.
Think of us as Wine - "with benefits."
Many thanks to Mark Peele for tickling the ivories this past Friday - he made a great night even better.
International Dogs Debut This Week at The Beanery
Care for a little Fiery Kimchi on your "Korean Dog?"
or maybe some shaved Dubliner cheese on your Irish Cheddar Dog. This Wednesday we push the concept of the hot dog to a new level.
We will feature the world famous Mucke's hot dog with it's all natural casing. Then add perfect buttery rolls from the grill and an assortment of international flavors. Please join us for something different this Wednesday at The Beanery. 70 State Street in New London.
Spring Fever Tasting
Friday April 9 - 6-9 p.m.

Louis Max Beaucharme Chardonnay $16
It's been a long time since I woke up actually excited because a couple cases of wine were coming in...Friday was one of those days! From Louis Max comes what we believe are two of the best values to be found in two favorite varietals. Let's start with the Chardonnay: from Burgundy, France (where else?), mellow, aromatic, cool and pleasant. Pale gold, with fresh pear, butter and white flowers. (Arugula salad with spring asparagus and toasted pine nut?)
Fratelli Corsi Michelangelo Chianti $10
Here's a nice little find for bargain hunters, genuine Sangiovese-based Chianti with a light, peppery dried-flower bouquet. Soft-textured with dark berry undertones, a Chianti that won't pickle your tongue. Ideal for pasta and pizza, or next to a big Caesar salad!
Carlo Giacosa Dolcetto d'Alba "Cuchet" $18
This small-production gem comes from the heart of Tuscany. Deep violet tones and bright red plummy fruit, giving way to an earthy, morel mushroom and smoked wood character. Round, full-bodied and velvety. This shows brilliantly with food - say, Orsini fennel sausage in red sauce over pan-seared polenta with shaved romano and wilted spinach? Just an idea...
Thanks for all of the reservations and party plans for the coming weeks. Brie & Bleu and City News are great venues for a private get together. Graduation & wedding season is upon us and we have options to suit rehearsal dinners, birthdays, and client meetings too. Please give us a call to discuss your plans.
Thanks also for all of the kind words about our new staff members and the very enthusiastic input on the new menu ideas we have been trying out. We can hardly wait for Brie & Bleu to open for the season*.
Please Join Us - it's fun, informal, and a great way to start your weekend.
AAA.
*Brie & Bleu will be back to regular dinner service at the end of May.

Louis Max Beaucharme Pinot Noir $18
Next up, their Pinot Noir - I'm going to go out on a vine here and announce: "This is the best Pinot under 20 bucks we have ever carried!" Again - from The Source: Cote d'Or, in Burgundy, France, Pinot's hometown. Brilliant red, with cherry, kirsch and notions of lime and mint. (They also make a Monopole, in the Mercurey vineyard - stay tuned)Fratelli Corsi Michelangelo Chianti $10
