A: Les Amis Du Vin Shower (pronounced: layz zam mee doo van), literally translates, "The Friends of Wine." And you don't have to be a connoisseur of the grape to enjoy a good year. Ask your guests to bring two selections of wine -- one to enjoy at the party, and one to add to the collection you're quickly establishing for the happy couple.
Think of your Les Amis Du Vin Shower as an intimate, elegant wine tasting for good friends. Select a timeless invitation, evocative of an elegant, refined mood. If you decide to hold your soirée at home, serve a fresh fruit plate complete with pears, grapes, melons, and all her favorites. Set out boards of chèvre, Camembert, Jarlsberg and other delicious cheeses, accompanied by crostini, focaccia, and other rustic breads. If you like, try your hand at a savory cheesecake -- the dessert you eat as an entrée. For a quick and easy delicacy, bake a wheel of Brie. Sit back, relax, and enjoy a sumptuous afternoon with good friends.
