Inevitably we all are going to travel somewhere and some point in our lives, trasping through the airports well before our scheduled flights just to make sure we get through security in time. Usually that leaves us with a couple of the stand buy culinary options to choose from (I am thinking Starbucks, CPK, or the jenky sports bar) while we wait and wait and wait. Well someone by the name of Doug Tomlinson had an idea that would save us all from the doldrums of normal airport cuisine, his idea was Vino Volo and I was invited the other evening to their grand opening at the Sacramento Airport. Vino Volo is indeed a wine bar, but beyond that it is an oasis in the airport where you can find such delights as locally-produced artisan cheeses, dry cured meats, and smoked salmon rolls wrapped around crab meat and crème fraiche. You may choose to enjoy your selections in the store or you may carry them on the plane as everything has been properly screened. So we no longer have to dread the in-flight meal selection process. Every wine is at Vino Volo is available by the glass, by the bottle, as well as part of a tasting flight, with prices ranging form $6-$14, with the exception of the high-end splurge flight “Sommelier Series”. So the next trip that you have scheduled you may want to pencil in a bit more time to go and enjoy a glass of wine and some appetizers
