There are few things better than a summer evening on a great Milwaukee patio... except maybe an evening on that patio enjoying a few glasses of sparkling wine.
That's exactly what's in store for the second annual Bubbles in Bay View, which will take place June 14 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Sorella, 2535 S. Kinnickinnic Ave. The event will feature the opportunity to taste four sparkling wines, a still rosé, plus passed hors d’oeuvres – all served up on the restaurant's beautifully appointed patio. Featured wines will include:
- Louis Roederer Collection 243 Champagne
- La Gioiosa Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore D.O.C.G.
- La Gioiosa Prosecco Rose Millesimato D.O.C.
- Villa Sparina Brut Blanc de Blancs
- Rocco di Montemassi Renaissance Rose IGT, 2022
