Cleveland Park Wine & Spirits It sure was fun Elizabeth. I enjoyed our conversation and our mini wine-tasting and between Fatima and myself we got you to try some ' new ' things. Hope you had a great weekend and I look forward to our next visit together. You both are the best and it was a delight to bounce ideas off of you both, speak of Kevin Bacon, of James Spader, of the movie " White Palace with him and Susan Sarandon, ... of Italian wines like Chianti, of the SALTON Tannat dry red , $11.99 from Serra Gaucha to try ( have you yet? ) that was just featured this morning in today's Washington Post Food section wine article by writer Dave McIntyre. Dave used to shop and buy wine from me at Cleveland Park Wines and he saw it on our shelves and said he had samples to taste. I told him then how good it was. That was a couple of weeks' ago before he dined at Ripple with John-Paul. Small world as John Paul came by soon after and said he was headed to Ripple to meet and dine with Dave. Love it, cheers Elizabeth. See you both soon. TONY 3/5/2014

Why Anthony Quinn Sells The SALTON Wines Of Brasil @ Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits ? SIMPLE : They Are Good, Well-Priced, Available & Have Mike & Katie Cavanagh Of A. & M. Imports Behind Them To Taste Them For New Year's 2014, For Brasil' Carnaval & Now For The Soccer World Cup & The Summer Olympics of 2014 : Tim Tim, Vais, Vais VAIS, Obregado A Tudos!




Bralvin on Facebook  - LIKE us and stay in Touch with the wines of Brazil here in the United States, Washington D.C. anyway!





SALTON here in Washington D.C. provides wines that are affordable and that we can sell against everything else and that our customers like and buy because they are good for the money, competitive and that's what we need. I want to sell the others and will buy more LIDIO CARRARO from Winebow Imports, RIO/SOL from Dionysos Imports ... and want to buy CASA VALDUGA again but the Country Vintners does not have them anymore, and Soothern Imports does not seem to have anything here in this market except the CARNAVAL sparkling wines that are really not something I want to promote as , for me, BRASIL is so much better than that! I'd like to buy from Southern Imports the MIOLO and the DON GUERINO wines that they supposedly sell here in the United States? They do not seem to be pushing these or any others here in Washington D.C.?!? I have reached out here on Facebook and no answer, will try again now. SO : Mike Cavanagh of A. & M. Imports comes and pours and together we keep something ALIVE and in the faces of our customers here in Washington D.C. to have celebrated the New Year of 2014 and Carnaval now, and the Summer Olympics and the Soccer World Cup soon, too! Thanks- Obregado Mike and Katie Cavanagh for your help these last few months. AND : in fairness to SALTON : IT was - the Extra Dry Espumante the very first Brazilian wine I tried in Brasil when I returned there in late June 2012 at the Hotel Victoria Dall'Onder when Milton Sebbem offered me a glass upon arrival, and nothing tasted so good as it did- and my second glass - obregado Milton, ambassador extraordinaire of SALTON. They should hire you!! Anthony ( TONY ) Quinn 3/3/2014
