April Tasting - Enomatic - This weekend's wines

April 26, 2014

It's Saturday ....

Which wine to choose?

Now you can easily decide by purchasing a "tasting card" from Connolly's Wine for either £5, £10 or £20.

We're running a "half price" card offer up to the end of May, so, a £20 card will only cost £10 !

Slot your card into the gleaming, Italian "Enomatic" machine, wait for the lights to signal it's ready to pour and, in a moment, a fresh glass of wine is in your hand.

You may select any of the wines in three different measures (25ml sample, 125ml glass, or 175ml glass).

If in doubt, just repeat the process and keep trying until you find the ideal wine!

Come and give it a go any day of the week.

The Half Bottle – it’s a thing of beauty

March 14, 2023

Years ago, before very clever folk started coming up with all manner of means to keep open bottles of wine (reasonably) fresh, half bottles of wine were a thing. Growers would routinely bottle a modest proportion of their harvest into half bottles and restaurants in particular, would carry them, largely for the benefit of solo diners
