109 Cheese & Wine: Snow Provisions, Fondue and Holiday Menu

"If I'm getting snowed in, it's not going to be with a glass of milk!" says owner of 109 cheese and Wine, Todd Brown. In response to the report of snow coming tomorrow, Brown says, "We will most likely be open our regular hours tomorrow, but watch our social media pages just in case."

Tomorrow at 109 Wine:

Wine Tasting and Guest Michele D'Aprix will be in the store from 1-4:00 pm.

Winemaker - Importer and Bordeaux Crusader - about Michelle:

Michele's love affair with wine began in 1997 when she walked into the cellar at Dry Creek Vineyard. It was her first job interview at a winery, and she was one of their three candidates that year. She recalls, "The enologist ultimately hired me because, at the time, I was a bartender in Boston. They figured a bartender's ability to multitask outweighed my lack of experience. I was only a third year, O-Chem undergraduate with no lab skills whatsoever." Michele earned her Viticulture and Enology degree from UC Davis, and today she runs her own wine importing business and calls NYC her home. Come harvest season, Michele hops over the pond to get her hands dirty in the French soil, making wine with Pierre Bernault. Her mission is to redefine Bordeaux for a new generation of wine lovers - to swipe it of its stuffy notoriety and intimidation, getting us all to drink a glass on any day of the week.

And, there's more:

"Do you Fondue? We do," says Todd Brown.
