Did someone say January (in the Northern Hemisphere) should mean cold weather—cold enough for the possibility of snow? No one actually declared, “Let’s have a snow day!” But if they did, wouldn’t it be nice if it lasted at least a week off work? After all, if snow is going to inconvenience us, it might as well stick around long enough to enjoy its beauty, right? So, as you gaze out your window at the delicate snowflakes falling, why not sip on something warming? This week, City Vino is featuring some bold red wines perfect for the season. While you’re here, take a seat in our café, where we have a gorgeous view of the Christmas tree—still up and now adorned with a dusting of those lovely white flakes.
