Wine of the Week
AIX Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence Rosé
Provence, FR, 2025

Crafted high up in the mineral-rich hills of the South of France, this classic blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Cinsault pours a brilliant, pale salmon pink. In the glass, it delivers crisp notes of wild strawberries, fresh watermelon, and delicate white blossoms. The finish is famously bone-dry, driven by a mouth-watering, saline acidity that instantly demands another pour.

New Canaan Sidewalk Sale – Saturday July 19th

Mark your calendar for New Canaan’s biggest weekend of the summer ! Friday the 17th kicks things off with the sidewalk sale. Local stores set up right outside their doors with once-a-year deals on some of their best inventory. And then, Saturday the 18th is the main event — three streets turned into a pedestrian mall packed with bargains, food, live music, and enough kids’ activities to wear out even the most energetic five-year-old.

  • Shop the Sale

Storefronts up and down Elm, Main, and Forest put out their best deals of the year for the sidewalk sale. Bring a bag and budget more time than you think you’ll need — this isn’t a quick stop.

  • The YMCA Family Fun Area

Head to Main and Elm for the YMCA’s Family Fun Area, the go-to spot for kids all weekend. On deck: bungee jumping, airbrush tattoos, a family photo booth, arts and crafts, and prizes.

  • More Entertainment for Kids (and Adults Who Act Like Kids)

Fan favorite Gary Sirico returns with his balloon animals — a fair tradition that always draws a crowd. A face painter will be on hand for anyone who wants a new look for the day, and a psychic will be reading for anyone curious what’s next.

  • Eat and Drink Your Way Through Town

Food is everywhere this weekend, but here’s where to find some of the highlights:

Taco Tequila Truck — Elm and Park
New Canaan Butcher — Main and East
Gelatissimo, Good Day Tap Company, and LemonNates — cool refreshments to beat the July heat
