SUMMARY:Mezcal 101
DESCRIPTION:Although mezcal has been the next big thing since at least 2008\, even seasoned spirits professionals are still trying to wrap their heads around what exactly it is and why everyone is talking about it. When we hear the word “mezcal”\, we imagine a rustic\, handmade spirit. And much of it is that. But not all of it. That’s just one of the myths that we’ll dispel in this session\, presented by Golden Spirits Award-winner Lou Bank. In a series of eight neat pours\, the founder of SACRED will illustrate that mezcal can be made in an industrial way\, and that there’s a place in the market for that industrial spirit. He’ll illustrate what an artisanal mezcal is\, and what an ancestral mezcal is\, and how they are different. He’ll explain why the agave is a particularly unique sugar source for spirits\, and how the plant’s unique qualities also fuel debates among industry professionals as to what is and is not sustainable. \n\n\nLou Bank\n\nLou Bank has sold more copies of a single comic book than anyone else in America. He helped bring Pokemon to the masses\, Star Wars to the cereal aisle\, and Morimoto to the beer geeks. But you’re here because he founded SACRED\,  a USA-based\, 501c3 not-for-profit that uses traditional and artisanal agave spirits from rural Mexico to help improve the quality of life in the communities where those spirits are made. Lou is also the co-host of Agave Road Trip\, a podcast that helps gringo bartenders better understand agave\, agave spirts\, and rural Mexico.

See you soon! \n\nOur Guests: Maria Paoletti Masini & Francesco De Filippis\nMaria is from Cosimo Maria Masini\, a biodynamic winery in Tuscany\, specifically San Miniato\, a territory known worldwide for its wines and truffles. Before she bought the winery Maria worked as an attorney and is also an avid collector of contemporary art\, two activities always guided by her passion: Maria says passion is the salt of life! \nOne might ask what these three fields\, apparently so diverse and unrelated\, have in common? Beauty\, elegance and balance. Biodynamic farming helped Maria discover the majestic beauty of nature and taught her to listen to the amazing world around us. In the winery she is responsible for communication and marketing\, so she welcomes you for a wine tasting visit\, to enjoy a glass of wine together discovering the unique story each wine has to tell. Cosimo Maria Masini is her son\, the name of the wines\, Cosimo\, Annick\, Matilde\, and Daphne are names of persons in her family\, and Nicole\, the name of first winemaker’s daughter. \nNo one can explain you biodynamic farming better than Francesco De Filippis. With a Phd in agronomy with a dissertation on biodynamic and a wide experience\, despite his relative young age\, Francesco has been running and converting farms around Europe and North Africa from small to very big ones (1200 acres) to these practices. 8 years ago\, he arrived as agronomist at Cosimo Maria Masini… then he took over everything from farming to winemaking. This beautiful winery based in San Miniato between Florence and Pisa is a historical one; the villa built in 1400 has seen guests such as Napoleon Bonaparte\, has been the epicenter of Italian agri-culture as Cosimo Ridolfi was as well president of Accademia dei Georgofili (whose core is promoting sustainable agricultural practices). The farm today has 35 acres and make wines from some well-known grape varieties (Sangiovese) and some not so much (Sanforte\, Bonamico). Francesco makes sure that every action taken at Cosimo Maria Masini is synchro with the rhythm Mother Nature. \n\nFEATURED WINES\n\n \nAnnick \, variety 85% Sauvigno Blanc\, 155 Vermentino \n\n \nSincero\, variety 80% Sangiovese\, Cabernet Sauvignon\, Cabernet Franc and local variety \n\n\n \nNicole\, 100% Sangiovese \n\n\nRECIPES\nClick here to view all recipes \n\n \nPasta e Fagioli (pairs well with Sincero) \n\n \nInvoltini Toscani (pairs well with Nicole) \n\n \nCrostone con Salsiccia Toscana (pairs well with Sincero) \n\n \nPICI CACIO e PEPE (pairs well with Annick) \n\n\n\nRegistration is required below. \nWhile there is no charge for this event\, donations are very much appreciated: \nZelle: Regine@ShallWeWine.com\nVenmo: @Regine-Rousseau\nCashApp: @ShallWeWine \nThank you for your continued support in making Shall We Wine your go-to wine & lifestyle resource.

SUMMARY:Shall We Wine - Wellness Series ~ Mila Marshall
DESCRIPTION:Please join Shall We Wine for our Wellness Series on Sunday\, January 10\, 2021 @ 11am CST. \nThis event is FREE for ALL SWW members. The cost is $15 for non-members. \nWe have a special guest leading us through a breathing exercise! \nIntentional deep breath practices can help strengthen lungs\, regulate blood pressure as well as reduce heart rate. Participants will learn about moving the breath with the body\, understanding the healing benefits of the breath and be introduced to more breath practices to help destress and refocus. \n\n\nMila Marshall\n\nI am a native Chicagoan and love the outdoors. My life is filled with excitement as I am a mother of three very active quaranteens who def keep me on my toes. Life as a yoga and meditation instructor has been transformative. I show up in my classes charged with only teaching what I practice\, and that requires a lot of self truth. So with that I teach from the places that I know the best; trap yoga lets me flex my b-girl side\, Sex Flex allows me to tap into the divine feminine\, chair yoga and restorative gives me access to heal the hurts from life as a competitve swimmer and water polo player\, beach yoga allows me to love life in open air and partner yoga is a way for me to dissolve the untruths about what I feel I am owed by others…and meditation\, well it reminds me that the bells and whistles of being born in a Black body can be divine and distracting. I don’t claim to shape shift like the best of them but I am for sure clear that I am not like the rest of them. I truly believe the soul is here for its own joy and there is no liberation sweeter than that of one’s consciousness from the ego.

SUMMARY:Shall We Wine - Wellness Series ~ Mila Marshall
DESCRIPTION:Please join Shall We Wine for our Wellness Series on Sunday\, March 7\, 2021 @ 11am CST. \nThis event is FREE for ALL SWW members. The cost is $15 for non-members. \nWe have a special guest leading us through a breathing exercise! \nIntentional deep breath practices can help strengthen lungs\, regulate blood pressure as well as reduce heart rate. Participants will learn about moving the breath with the body\, understanding the healing benefits of the breath and be introduced to more breath practices to help destress and refocus. \n\n\nMila Marshall\n\nI am a native Chicagoan and love the outdoors. My life is filled with excitement as I am a mother of three very active quaranteens who def keep me on my toes. Life as a yoga and meditation instructor has been transformative. I show up in my classes charged with only teaching what I practice\, and that requires a lot of self truth. So with that I teach from the places that I know the best; trap yoga lets me flex my b-girl side\, Sex Flex allows me to tap into the divine feminine\, chair yoga and restorative gives me access to heal the hurts from life as a competitve swimmer and water polo player\, beach yoga allows me to love life in open air and partner yoga is a way for me to dissolve the untruths about what I feel I am owed by others…and meditation\, well it reminds me that the bells and whistles of being born in a Black body can be divine and distracting. I don’t claim to shape shift like the best of them but I am for sure clear that I am not like the rest of them. I truly believe the soul is here for its own joy and there is no liberation sweeter than that of one’s consciousness from the ego.
