Cork PhotoMonsterville's Famous Wine Classes are Back!
Several years ago, Monsterville Horton started wine classes in Houston that became some of the most popular in the nation. The popularity of these classes sprung from the belief that providing great wine, delicious food, and world-class instruction at a reasonable price, in a fun, unstuffy atmosphere, would get people excited about wine, and would assist in furthering what was already fast becoming a wine culture in the Bayou City.

Fast forward nearly 8 years and Houston has arrived as a "wine lifestyle" city! Wine is everywhere, and the variety of wine available from around the world continues to grow as producers the world over take notice of our wine consumption numbers. What hasn't kept up is the availability of world-class wine education. However, that's about to change! Cova is bringing back the fun-filled, value-priced educational wine classes like the ones conducted years ago.

Wine of the Week
2008 Punto Final Malbec

Big, jammy and unapologetically fruit forward! This delicious Argentine Malbec features layer upon layer of wild black raspberry jam, black cherry preserves, ripe plums, and candied huckleberry. Hints of lavender and spice complete this easy-drinking but serious package. The finish lasts for over 30 seconds! What more could you ask for in a $12 bottle of red! Buy this one by the case and drink it over the next 3 years. It's ideal for beef stroganoff, leg of lamb or a nice firm aged cheese. 90 Points M.H.
