The Prisoner Wine Company Thorn 2015

November 8, 2018 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

  Many wine drinkers are very familiar with The Prisoner Wine Company, which produces the wildly popular red wine blend called The Prisoner - one of the best-selling wines of the past decade. Women winemakers are still, sadly, reasonably rare in the wine world. But not at The Prisoner Wine Company, where Chrissy Wittman serves as Director of Winemaking and Niki … [Read more...]

Fine Wines: E. Guigal Saint-Joseph 2015

November 2, 2018 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

I have been a fan of the fine wines from the firm of E. Guigal in Ampuis, France, for many, many years. These wines from the Côtes du Rhône are of very high quality, yet are typically priced quite reasonably. They are consistently great bangs-for-the-buck. Founded in 1946 by Etienne Guigal, his son Marcel has led the family estate since 1961 and his son Philippe – Etienne’s … [Read more...]

Sip O’ The Week : Black Widow Martini

October 26, 2018 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

  With Halloween in mind, I’m turning my attention this week to a spooky looking, but delicious, cocktail called a Black Widow Martini. The recipe is from Tablespoon Kitchens and it’s a very simple drink to make, but one that looks stunning. This recipe makes four Black Widow Martini cocktails. Ingredients: ¾ cup pomegranate or grape juice 2 tablespoons coarse … [Read more...]

Wine Down @ Epic

October 19, 2018 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

Photograph by Photo by Raj Eiamworakul on Unsplash.Epic Casual Dining in Midvale is a terrific spot for wine lovers to gather, and that’s especially true on hump day, when the eatery invites guests to Wine Down. Each Wednesday, Epic offers a budget-minded prix fixe 3-course Wine Down dinner with wine pairings priced at a mere $45, including wine ($35 for food only). The … [Read more...]

Western Standard Saloon Lager

October 12, 2018 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

Last night I had the pleasure of attending a launch soiree at The Rest for a new High West Distillery endeavor: Western Standard Saloon Lager. Yep, High West has gotten into the beer biz. And it makes sense. You see, High West has a lot of bourbon barrels on their hands. So, why not age beer in them? That’s precisely what Western Standard is: the first barrel-aged lager … [Read more...]

2018 Shot Ski Event

October 5, 2018 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

Next Saturday, October 13th, the 2018 Shot Ski Event returns for its third year in Park City. Hosted by the Park City Sunrise Rotary Club and High West Distillery, the communal ski shot this year hopes to break Breckenridge’s record set last January of 1,266 participants and 422 skis.

Adami Dei Casel Prosecco

September 28, 2018 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

In my Utah Bites review this week of Avenues Bistro on Third, I mentioned a particularly good food and wine match that my wife and I enjoyed there. It was an order of gougères - French-style puff pastries made with Gruyere - and a bright, crisp sparkling wine from the restaurant’s wine list: Adami Dei Casel Extra Dry Valdobbiadene DOCG Prosecco Superiore ($20.99). This … [Read more...]

OTC Townie Rosé 2017

September 21, 2018 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

Old Town Cellars, known as “the official wine of après,” is a winery located at the bottom of Main Street in Park City. The mission at Old Town Cellars (OTC) is to create approachable wines and to serve and sell them in a laid-back and inviting atmosphere. No wine snobbery allowed. Says OTC co-founder Stephen MacKay, “Starting a winery has been stressful enough. Let’s not make … [Read more...]

September 14, 2018 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

And, the festive event will feature sips of a number of Italian beverages for you to sample and enjoy. Among the wines being served, sponsored by Vine Lore, are Il Faggio Montepulciano D’Abruzzo, Di Majo … [Read more...]

Kiitos Northeast Pale Ale

September 7, 2018 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment

Have you visited Kiitos Brewing yet? If not, be sure to put it on your must-do list. This new brewery has a great vibe, friendly and informed staff, and a tremendous selection of top-notch craft brews, offered both in cans and on tap. Casey, one of the terrific bartenders at Kiitos, was especially nice and helpful in describing the brewing methods and the beers we … [Read more...]
