Binny's Blog

Last week it was new wines, this week it's new spirits. Pat once again overdid it and brought too many new items for us to sample.

This week on Barrel to Bottle, check out five Beaujolais from the 2020 vintage that prove it's a great summer wine.

We're joined by design icon and fashion mogul Vera Wang for an exploration of her new, limited edition Chopin vodka.

Head to Beaujolais with the Binny's wine team as Alicia and Chris take you on a journey through the region.

Beaujolais is fresh, fruity, and festive. Beaujolais is an every night delight, priced right. Beaujolais is gravitas and a true expression of terroir. Beaujolais is conviviality; the tie that binds friends, old and new. Beaujolais is family, food, and fun. Most of all, Beaujolais is for sharing, on your best days and every day. 

Join Binny's Wine Educator Alicia B. and Binny's own Guru of the Grape Chris S. for an informative look at this special region!

Travel with us for a few minutes to Beaujolais. Settled in the rolling hills just south of Burgundy, it’s a region immensely appreciated by a few (mostly those who work in wine) and undiscovered (or misunderstood) by many.

The Vesper is a cocktail famously knows as James Bond's signature cocktail. It is gin forward with citrus and sweet flavors. A Tried-and-true classic - this cocktail isn't for the weak. It's strong, mighty and may cause chest hair growth.

The Godmother is a smooth, subtly sweet cocktail that delivers effortless sophistication with every sip. This elegant mix combines crisp vodka with the rich, almond-kissed flavor of Disaronno, creating a perfectly balanced drink that’s both light and indulgent.
