NEW YEAR’S EVE ‘Ringing’ in the New Year in 1999

The new year is rapidly approaching. As we wrap up 2021 and look forward to 2022, topping my New Year’s Eve celebration of 1999 is tough to do. Thus, we don’t do anything too exciting or out of the ordinary, and we typically have a fairly quiet evening. On Dec. 31, 1999, my wife and I stayed in New Orleans and planned to attend a party at Hotel Monteleone where we’d enjoy an extravagant New Year’s evening at the Carousel Bar with wonderful drinks and delicious food. At the time, my wife and I were just dating, but this charming girl from Mississippi had already won my heart, and I knew she was the one. So, that evening before the party, I got down on one knee and asked her to be my wife. The celebration that followed our engagement became a once-in-a-lifetime New Year’s Eve party! Everyone — and I

mean everyone — congratulated us as we partied and danced the night away. We even wound up meeting a private chef! That same chef later came up from New Orleans to Mississippi (where my wife was born) to cater our wedding reception. As his wedding gift, he provided my wife and me with a private afternoon lunch just before our wedding reception. That meal featured all different types of traditional New Orleans food — and it’s truly unforgettable. Every New Year’s Eve, my wife and I reminisce over such a beautiful and memorable evening. This New Year’s, I wish you happiness, love, and good health as we set out to tackle 2022! Best wishes to all!

Happy New Year!

INSPIRATION

THE SIP OF TODAY

Domaine Maby Prima Donna

“Find your peace and live in it.”

A rosé you can serve with steak, this wine — a blend of granché and Cinsault — packs a punch. It’s dry, yet fruity and features notes of boiled cherry sweets, watermelon, strawberries, and herbs. It’s both dark and spicy with great depth.

Dark rosés, such as Domaine Maby Prima Donna, are more intense with richer flavors and a more complex texture than your typical rosé.

–Yohance Salimu

This wine can certainly take the place of a red wine, pairing nicely with red meats, game, scallops, or salmon with its fiery notes of peppercorn and char. This drink is quite silky and smooth going down and best served chilled.

It’s a rosé lover’s dream for the holiday season! If you like spicy wines, give this one a try and embrace the other side of rosé.
