And Richmond Dish - I loved talking wine with you! So much fun.
Eating Bird Food and Richmond, Food for Thought have great write ups, so please check them out.
For sustenance on this evening, I went for the PROSCIUTTO di PARMA $8.95 prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, basil, greens, red peppers, olive oil & balsamic on ciabatta, and hubby tried ITALIAN TUNA SALAD $10.95 avocado, apples, red onion, tomato & zucchini with balsamic dressing. Delish! And Olio offered some great wine gems, including a 2006 Bourgogne from Shaps and Roucher-Sarrazin.
An elegant Burgundy that I did not think I would see again when it vacated the shelves at Kroger a couple of years ago. Not only was it pleasing, the price was the retail rack price (as are all of the wines for imbibing). I heard that the beer prices were unbeatable, too.
So, go experience Olio for yourself. I hope to try a bottle of Santenay in the near future...

It was great meeting you as well!! And thanks for the kind words.
Glad you enjoyed it. I think we can/should do this more often. If any of you have ideas, lets put'em in action. Oh, and thanks for the taste of some wine I'm too cheap to buy.
