Sip into Spring: Discover Fresh, Vibrant Wines with Sommelier, Kale Furuya

Sip into Spring: Discover Fresh, Vibrant Wines with Sommelier, Kale Furuya Sip into spring and explore coastal vs. alpine freshness in an exclusive wine tasting at Mara!

HONOLULU (HI Now) - As the seasons shift and the weather warms, there’s nothing better than reaching for a wine that feels just as fresh and lively as spring itself. But where does that freshness come from? Some wines carry the crisp, mouthwatering energy of the sea—shaped by salty coastal breezes and limestone-rich soils—while others have an alpine vibrancy, like breathing in the cool, brisk air of the mountains.

In our upcoming wine experience, we’ll take you on a journey through two exceptional wines that embody these contrasting expressions of freshness—one influenced by the ocean, the other by the mountains. Both are elegant, refreshing, and perfect for spring—but can you tell which is which? Join us to taste and find out! 🍷✨

The Wines:

Clos Sainte Magdeleine ‘Méditerranée Blanc’ – Coastal Freshness: Sourced from a stunning vineyard overlooking the Mediterranean Sea in Provence, this wine is kissed by salty ocean breezes and nurtured by warm Provençal sunshine. The result? A bright, zesty, and mouthwatering white wine that pairs effortlessly with fresh seafood, briny olives, or a simple afternoon in the sun.

Boniperti Fara ‘Barton’ – Alpine Freshness: From the foothills of the Alps in Alto Piemonte, this Nebbiolo-based wine is all about energy and vibrancy. Lighter in body but rich in character, it offers an effortless drinkability that keeps you coming back for another sip. Quaffable yet structured, lively yet deep—this is a wine that shines at any table, pairing beautifully with a variety of dishes.
