Companions + Wisconsin Youth Symphony Orchestras (WYSO)

The Wisconsin Youth Symphony Orchestras nurture young musicians through world-class instruction and performance opportunities, building confidence, discipline, and lifelong passion for the arts.�We’re thrilled to contribute to these two inspiring organizations and their incredible missions.

Canopy Management

Vine leaves aren’t just for photos — how they’re managed affects the wine in your glass. Winemakers trim or adjust the leafy canopy to control sunlight and airflow. 🌞 More sun = riper fruit flavors. More shade = fresher, higher acidity. Taste the difference in Cabernet from Napa (ripe and lush) versus Loire Valley Cab Franc (bright and herbal). Pair with Caprese salad to bring out the green, leafy freshness. Fun fact: canopy management is often called “vineyard architecture.”

Prosecco Week

✨🍾 Celebrate Prosecco Week with easy-breezy bubbles. Perfect for spritzes, brunch, and weeknight wins.
Bundle deal: 3 styles (Brut, Extra Dry, Rosé) = party solved.

Lambrusco Day

🍇🥤 Chillable red for pizza night! Lambrusco Day calls for frothy, fruity sparkle with a savory edge.
Grab a dry style and thank us later.

👔 Father’s Day

Here is to the dads, mentors, and father figures who make life better. If you are celebrating, we can help you pick the perfect bottle. Big reds like Cabernet or Barolo for steak night. Bourbon-barrel reds for the grill master. Chardonnay or Champagne for brunch. A fun flight works too: one sparkling, one white, one red.

Tell us what you are cooking, and we will match the sip to the menu. Happy Father’s Day.

Drink Chenin Blanc Day

🍏🍯 From crisp and mineral to textured and honeyed—Chenin Blanc does it all.
Great with goat cheese, roast chicken, and spicy dishes. Ask for Loire vs. South Africa picks.
