Milagro - A Spanish Miracle From Argentina In Cleveland Park : Pretty Amazing, Really - Good Friend, Too : July 2010




It was a weekend in Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits ( 3423 Connecticut Avenue N.W. Washington D.C. 20008 Tel : 202-36304265 sales@clevelandparkwine.com www.clevelandparkwine.com on facebook at : clevelandparkwine.com ) and Brennan Downey was tasting some of his excellent Italian wines here in the store in Washington D.C. N.W. in our Cleveland Park neighborhood.




Milagro and Vince and others of our many loyal and faithful Cleveland Park customers came to our store to buy whatever they needed for the weekend as well as to soak up/in the good cheer and will and friendliness and vibes of well-being and gathering and sharing and overall caring for and about one another that I pride this store in emanating/radiating and emitting so as to give out/forth an overall positive aura that heals and makes on smile and relax and enjoy and get into the great spirit of sharing whatever they have on this particular moment.




It works , too. Almost everyone gets into the spirit - this spirit of things when they come to Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits : that's the idea - the grand plan of mine. It's essential to all of our well being, really. Trust me on this.

Doesn't matter if it's for wine-makers, wine owners, reps sales managers, brokers, doctors, lawyers, artists, architects, musicians, photographers, social workers, teachers , customers, : it's for everyone.




We love our customers and I hope that most love us.




Vince, you were saying? You have a point to make?
Please share ...




Brennan was actually tasting both wines of Italy and of Uruguay. We work with both countries really well and enjoy selling both. Here we had I believe a dry Sauvignon Blanc white and a dry red Tannat from CARRAU Ururguay, as well as an excellent Italian Piemontese Arneis or was it a Cortese dry mineral and touch of citrus medium-to-light-bodied, bright white? I will have to enlarge the picture above a bit later to see better which one and include it here later.

We also tasted an excellent dry, earthy, pithy, medium-bodied Tuscan Sangiovese from the town/area Vernaccia which is actually much better known for it's whites than it is for it's reds. Having said that this red is excellent and a great accompaniment to food. I have now met the owner twice at the annual Downey portfolio tastings.




Thanks Brennan, it seems that you as well as Vince and I have all fallen under the Milagro spell/charm. Like that smile, like hers very much, too. Even my Canon Power Shot digital camera is now smitten with Milagro.




The wines are good : the company perhaps even a tad better? They complement each other wouldn't you say. What do you think Milagro?



Milagro loves wines and now that she has moved away from Cleveland Park still makes a special effort to return and buy her wines from us when she can. She even brought her family to meet us recently.




What are you saying here Milagro? You are making a point or an observation here and I did not hear it. I'll ask you Brennan later when I see you. Perhaps you remember what Milagro thought of your wines? Did she like those of Uruguay? I believe that she did.





It was a better day for having seen all of you here in Cleveland Park. Thanks Milagro, Vince and Brennan ... It sure did help to make my day just that much better and memorable. Cheers, here's toasting to you all, TONY
