Sing along with us to wine-altered lyrics to the Lipps Inc song from 1979, “Won’t you take me to Sparkletown, Won’t you take me to Sparkletown?”

Rocking The Christmas Dinner

Rocking The Christmas Dinner This week brings Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, and that may mean time spent with family and friends around the dining room table. Stop by City Vino on Thursday, December 23, or Friday, December 24, to sample some wines that can grace your holiday table. Also, below, we will be including some wine-nerdy facts that you can perhaps use to tell the story of the wine or grape to rock the Christmas dinner table for your holiday dinner guests. Get ready for the oohs and the ahhs. Well, maybe.
