Table Numbers


Today I found a super cute and unique way to make interesting table numbers for the wedding. With some help from A.C. Moore and Michaels, the project was finished in no time.

Wedding Wine Menu & Tasting Notes


Today I picked up the wine for the wedding. They are all Italian, 2 whites, 2 reds and a sparkling brut for celebration! I have created a wine menu for guests, along with tasting notes... I know that if I was confronted with these wines, I wouldn't know what to do... so the notes should help a lot!

Tasca d’Almerita
Regaleali Nero d'Avola IGT Sicilia 2007

Bright ruby red color, this wine offers a rich bouquet of cherry, mulberry, and raspberry. On the palate, it is complex and supple, with ripe berries framed by juicy tannins.


Argiolas
Perdera IGT Isola dei Nuraghi 2008

The intense ruby red color of this wine is typical of the Monica grape. Persistent aromas of ripened cherry, cassis, and black pepper carry through to the palate, and are followed by hints of chocolate and firm tannins. Very vibrant, rich and rustic.


Argiolas
Costamolino Vermentino di Sardegna DOC 2008

Straw yellow in color with green highlights and an intense yet delicate bouquet that displays distinct characteristics of the variety. Supple aromas of citrus, pineapple, tropical fruits and honey are wonderfully supported by a zesty acidity. Delicate and pleasantly refreshing on the palate.


Zenato
Pinot Grigio delle Venezie IGT 2008

Straw yellow in color with greenish highlights, and a delicate bouquet. This is a wine to be enjoyed young when one can best appreciate its zesty fruitiness. Refreshing and soft with a smooth, dry finish.


Zardetto
Private Cuvée Sparkling Brut

Brilliant straw-yellow in color, enhanced by the perlage. The fruity flavors of pears, apples and peaches dissolve into floral notes, with a hint of citrus fruit and an aromatic quality that is fresh and rich in sensations.
