Better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick, no?

Uh, yes. So instead of going blind, swing by the Coral Springs and Fort Lauderdale Crown Wine & Spirits this Saturday, July 25, from 7 to 9 p.m.

They'll be pouring all kinds of interesting vino, including: Villa Antinori's suave Peppoli Chianti; the dark, brooding "ancient vines" mourvedre from Cline Cellars to Snoqualmie's "Naked" (that would be non-oaked) chardonnay; and the crisp yet vaguely floral Alluvium White from Beringer.
