Easter Treats at Hi-Time

Of course we have excellent choices for wines (and/or beers, spirits) when it comes to the traditional Easter meal-- from California or Oregon Pinot Noirs to German Rieslings and all points in between, the bases are covered!  And we will be prepared for Passover in April with appropriate kosher wines, as well.

We have another section in the store where we tend to focus on the cheeses and charcuterie--  the Hi-Time Foods Dept. and Chocolatier!  Tracy and her girls have been diligent in setting up their display of special candies and related goodies: from chocolate bunnnies to jelly beans, truffles to cookies & imported treats, come fill your basket at Hi-Time!

21 Oceanfront Wine Dinner: Antinori on April 28th

by Tobin Sharp

We have been fans and friends of 21 Oceanfront for many years-- we love to stop by for happy hour or dinner when we can and like to let you know when they have special events going on, especially their wine dinners.  The March dinner with Del Dotto sold out before we could even mention it-- so we wanted to skip ahead to April when the featured winery is Antinori.  Antinori!  The Antinori family has been making wines since the late 14th century.  During this time, "...through twenty six generations, the family has always directly managed this work with courageous and, at times, innovative decisions, but always maintaining, unaltered, a fundamental respect for tradition and for the territory in which they have operated.  

Today the firm is run by Marquis Piero Antinori with the support of his three daugthers, Albiera, Allegra, and Alessia, directly involved in the work of the house. Tradition, passion, and intuition have been the three driving principles which have led the Marquis Antinori firm to become a leader in Italian wine." This quote is from the Antinori website and you can read the full, fascinating history here.

The lineup for this dinner is strong, with an outstanding menu prepared by executive chef Miroslav Rusev to pair perfectly with the wines.  To find out more information on this and upcoming wine dinners, bookmark this link.  If you have any questions, give 21 Oceanfront a call: (949) 673-2100.
