It’s a good week to be a wino. After last weeks beer-heavy festivities, this week was made for wine lovers, offering up two events geared at pleasuring those finely tuned taste buds of yours. Bishop’s Cellar (1477 Lower Water Street, 490-2675) is still reeling from February’s Rare & Fine Wine show, and was inspired to uncork some more bottles that fit that description. Inviting you to taste some the best wine’s the shop’s ever ordered (along with some snacks) Rare & Fine Revisited takes place Friday, March 22 (5 until 7pm, $30). Bishops will also be popping bottles at Laing House fundraiser Splash of Spring next Wednesday, March 27 (6:30pm at FRED. food beauty art, 2606 Agricola Street). And those sips of new wines that you’ll be savouring will help support local youth living with mental illness. Get tickets at lainghouse.org. Cheers!
