Zavino kicks off "3-Liter Thursdays" tonight with free primo Cabernet

Jason Brooke, GM and chief vino head at Zavino (112 S. 13th St.), is kicking off a weekly "3-Liter Thursday" special this afternoon at 4:30 p.m. by popping a large-format bottle of 1991 Sterling Vineyards Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon out of his personal cellar. Since this wine is not available through the PLCB system, Brooke will be pouring the big Napa Cab for free, but subsequent 3-Liter Thursdays will see him selling 3- and 6-ounce pours, plus 750ml decanters (prices will vary based on the wine). This once-a-week special goes along with Brooke's recurring "Premium Pour" feature, which sees him bust out a swanky wine usually available by bottle only and pouring it in reasonably priced tasting portions.
