Welcome to Kafevino’s wine blog! This is the first of many weekly articles written by our knowledgeable staff to give you advice on a variety of topics including reviews of their favorite wines and craft beers. At Kafevino we are all passionate about fresh products, unique flavors, and of course…wine. We want everyone, from the wine novice to the connoisseurs, to feel welcome and we encourage everyone to explore the flavors of the world with us at Kafevino. Over the course of the next few blog articles you will meet the staff of Kafevino and hear about a few of their favorite flavors from the vine. Remember to check back often. It’s a great way to learn about upcoming wine tastings and pairings at Kafevino.

This weekend we had the opportunity to taste a new wine and had the pleasure of pairing it with a delectable entree from Sheridan’s in Cudahy. The dish that delighted our palette on that particular evening was a cornmeal encrusted cod served over soba noodles with asparagus, mushrooms, and cherry tomatoes. It was topped with chunks of fresh mozzarella cheese and finished with a pinch of rice noodles. Our wine pairing that evening was the 2007 Concannon Chardonnay from Concannon Vineyards.
