Cheap Thrills: Bubbly Tasting at Cured

To say that Cured is cheese shop, cured meat shop, or sandwich shop does Cured in Boulder no justice. Cured is a destination hot spot for food in many ways and one of these ways is the events held in the quaint wine store tucked in the back of the Cured space. The small glass cube housing the booze is stocked with carefully curated wines, spirits, and beers displayed tastefully.

Every Tuesday night, Coral and Will Frischkorn, the friendly and dynamic couple who owns Cured, hosts an informal and free wine tasting. Today from 4 to 7 p.m., it is time for bubbly. The shop will be sampling a bottle of Spasso Prosecco, Navarre Vintage Cava, and liter bottles of Berger’s Grüner Veltliner and Zweigelt. Bubbles and Big Bottles? Sounds like a party to me. While we’re on the subject, do you know the difference between Cava and Prosecco? If you don't, come and find out. If you do, just come drink before heading out to dinner.
