VALENTINE'S DAY AT VINIDEUS

SAINT VALENTIN at VINIDEUS

Saint Valentine's Day is a holiday celebrated on February 14 by many people throughout the world. In the West, it is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other by sending Valentine's cards, presenting flowers, or offering confectionery. The holiday is named after two among the numerous Early Christian martyrs named Valentine. The day became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.

Bring your honey for a romantic evening at our cozy place.

Enjoy free live music with Zephyr , special cocktails, and free tasting !!

Vitteaut Alberti, Crémant Rosé Brut
100% Pinot noir.Assembly of grapes from the Cote de Beaune and the CoteChalonnaise regions of Burgundy.The color is rose petal pink. The nose is theexpression of pinot noir , complex small red fruit and berry aromas.Can be enjoyed as a cocktail but also a great sparkling wine toaccompany meals, including dessert.

Velours de Nuits, Cassis:

The preparation of Velours de Nuits, Cassis comes from a long line oftraditional recipes of Burgundian crème de cassis, which calls for a slowmaceration of black current berries in wine. This best reveals the subtle aromasand wild character of black currant. The alcohol level of 5% allows for the purefruit expression to come through.Cassis can be enjoyed as a traditional Kir, mixing it with a very dry white wine(1/5 cassis to 4/5 white wine). For the sparkling version, simply substitutecrémant blanc de blanc for the still wine. Lesser known, but popular in Burgundy is the cardinal where the same proportion of cassis is added to a Beaujolais redwine.
Other great drink ideas:Cassis with sparkling or still waterCassis and clear soda popCassis and orange juiceCassis and Earl Grey iced teaCassis milkshake

Special Cocktail :

First we take a canard of sugar soaked in cassis. This is a tradition in France. The French take a sugar cube and soak it in all types of alcohol - with the stronger alcohols like calvados or other brandies, the sugar will help soften the bite. This is not necessary with this excellent cassis but is delicious and a beautiful presentation. We put the canard in the flute and fill it with Crémant de Bourgogne Blanc de Blanc sparkling wine. A cherry is placed on the top of the flute - with a toothpick holding it over the flute. The cherry can be eaten directly, offered to your amoureux or place it in the flute with the sugar and sparkling wine. The bubbles can push the cherry from the bottom to the top and gravity can let it fall again. In any case, the mix of Crémant, cassis, sugar and cherry is beautiful and an enchanting mix for one of the most romantic of occasions.

IPANEMIA

IPANEMIA
Founded in 2003 as a duo with vocalist Alice Kollinzas and guitarist Thomas Niebrzydowski, Ipanemia set out to rekindle the roots of Brazilian jazz. Although originally performing an exclusively Bossa Nova repertoire, the band expanded its sound with the addition of James cook on double bass and drummer Jolie Clausen. These additions led to a repertoire which included original compositions as well as jazz and show tune standards. Ipanemia creates a relaxed atmosphere with tongue-in-cheek humor and an unexpectedly delightful presence.

TIM CONNELL

Tim Connell
A graduate of the prestigious New England Conservatory of Music and a virtuoso multi-instrumentalist with over twenty years professional performance experience, Tim has been immersed in a variety of musical styles since he first began classical piano lessons at age seven.While working as a pianist and bassist in Boston, Tim delved deeply into the traditional Irish music of his youth, studying with renowned composer Michael O'Suilleabhain and master flutist Meabh Ni Fhuarthain. This work led him to the mandolin, and also to New England Conservatory, where he studied classical mandolin with Robert Sullivan, Jewish traditional music with klezmer guru Hankus Netsky, and modern improvisation with Ran Blake, receiving his Masters degree in 1997. While at NEC, Tim first heard the recordings of the great Brazilian choro mandolinist, Jacob do Bandolim, which led him to study this music with Brazilian choro masters Paulo Sa and Hamilton de Holanda, and with the legendary American mandolinist Mike Marshall. Tim currently lives in Portland, Oregon and performs choro and gypsy jazz with Rio Con Brio and Clambake, Irish music with The Yellers, Portuguese fado with Bossa do Fado, classical and Latin music with Toscana, and original compositions with Terracoustic. His study of Brazilian and Irish music, combined with his many years as a bassist and pianist have helped Tim synthesize a personal style on the mandolin which is harmonically advanced, rhythmically diverse and brimming over with sparkling ornamentation and romantic intensity.

TOBAJ

Tobáj is an international Latin/Jazz singer, guitarist, songwriter, and recording artist who lives in Portland, Oregon (USA). Tobáj has performed internationally in Spain, Mexico, Japan and the Caribbean, as well as on the West Coast, Hawaii and Alaska. He has also been featured on many radio and television programs in the U.S. and abroad.
Tobáj performs solo with guitar, with small jazz ensembles, and with larger jazz and Latin bands. His most recent CD - self titled, "Tobáj", received a review in the August 2005 issue of JAZZIZ MAGAZINE that reads: "Tobáj (Tobáj Music) - The Portland-based singer/guitarist blends easy and romantic vocals in Spanish and English with spirited acoustic accompaniment that tackles numerous genres, from flamenco to samba. The smoldering seduction is broken up, joyously, by the Santana-like electric fire of "Sensacional." Tobáj is also an accomplished "straight ahead standard-jazz" singer - specializing in vocal improvisation (scat singing).
Many have said, "A Latin Grammy waiting to happen." When performing in the Portland area, Tobáj draws from a wide variety of some of the most accomplished and well-known jazz musicians in the Northwest. Many of these musicians are featured on his new CD, such as Patrick Lamb (Sax), Jay "Bird" Koder (Electric Guitar), Jim Fischer (Keys and Piano), Sandin Wilson (Bass), Paul Mazzio (Trumpet and Flugelhorn), Toshi Onizuka (Flamenco Guitar), Caton Lyles (Percussion) and more! Tobáj is an all around entertainer who brings a high level of energy and professionalism to all his performances.

SANDY DENNISON AT BEAUMONT

Jazz vocalist Sandy Dennison presents her second CD interpreting thirteen standards freshly “jazzed” up and packaged in a very special album simply titled Jazzed! Possessing unique vocals with a tender almost raspy quality to her sound, Dennison’s softer phrasings serve to separate her from the pack in creating an identity all her own. She employs this authentic sound in providing a new approach to the great selection of standards, some of which do not get the attention they deserve.

Arneis is a unique dry white wine that perfectly represents the Ponzi Family's commitment to innovation and discovery. Upon being introduced to Arneis during one of their many trips to visit the Currado Family of Italy's Vietti Winery, Dick and Nancy were delighted by the wine's lovely flavors and balance. They quickly returned to Oregon's Willamette Valley to plant their first Arneis in 1991 - and became one of just three Arneis producers in the United States.The grapes are whole cluster pressed and cool fermented in stainless steel and French oak barrels, depending on the vintage.2007 Ponzi Arneis
Here's some happy gushing from Maria Ponzi Fogelstrom, the company's sales maestro: This is an incredible honor for our family, as we are all huge Obama fans.
Alice Waters has claimed Ponzi Arneis as one of her most cherished wines. It must be true! What a thrill to have our wine enjoyed at such a memorable time in our country's history.

JOHN & YUKO

John and Yuko originally met in New York City in summer 2000, and soon after that began to play as a guitar and vocal duo in Greenwich Village.

Their repertoire has been expanded since those first days as a team, but from the beginning one of their goals has been to provide the right blend of jazz, bossa nova, and Japanese and American classic pop.
