Wine Sorbet

Yum-O! I saw this on - where else - but Cool Hunting. Seem's appropriate, right?

But, seriously, wine sorbet covers wine lovers, foodies, and those watching their weight because sorbet is a yummy low calorie dessert.

Imagine Cabernet Sauvignon, Riesling, Zinfandel, and even Champagne flavored sorbet.

It's the age old story - two friends brainstorm and come up with a brilliant idea.

Here's how they explain it on the Wine Cellar Sorbets web site:

The idea for Wine Cellar Sorbets came about while Bret Birnbaum and David Zablocki, both wine lovers and childhood friends from Queens, New York were brainstorming menu ideas for their wine bar/restaurant they hoped to open in Brooklyn, NY. Apparently Dave came across wine sorbet while he was a chef out in Big Sur, California back in 2000 and had been making it ever since. Naturally Dave figured it would make a great addition for their wine bar. When Bret heard the idea, not only did he love it, he decided that it should be the focus of their new venture. Instead of opening a bar and restaurant, Dave and Bret decided to bring this wonderful combination of food and wine to wine lovers through gourmet stores, fine restaurants and caterers throughout the country.
