The trials and tribulations of the wine world may seem like trifles in this lonesome time. But for many, the economic importance of wine cannot be understated. And for others, the solace and sensory satisfaction found in a glass of wine can be an important component to continued emotional well-being.
Those two needs coalesced this past Sunday as local restaurants were forced to implement plan D, E or, I guess even F, when Pitkin County went to level Red in response to the increasing number of local positive COVID-19 cases. A silver lining for those restaurants relying on outdoor single-household rules and pivoting to take-out dining for their livelihoods is that Colorado is currently allowing the sale of wines and cocktails along with to-go food orders.
