On February 12, 2014, Yankee Discount Liquors in East Haven held one of its “most successful tastings” in its newly-opened education center, according to store owner Deepak Pattani. Women participants were greeted with red roses and a tasting of sweet red and white wines in tribute to St. Valentine’s Day. In addition to the “romantic” offerings of Mi Amore, a sweet dry red from Italy, attendees also sampled the Van Ruiten product line of California wines.
