The female version of a man cave, She Shed, is trending with establishments creating retreats for women –in their own backyard. The idea of finding a private area to meditate, or relax with girlfriends is blissful, and throwing a get-together, even better.   Italian winery, Santa Margherita shares the same attitude and fashioned an oasis while celebrating summer’s outdoor entertaining season. Recently, Brooklyn Grange played host to Santa Margherita’s She Shed Soirée with the launch of Santa Margherita’s new Sparkling Rosé and Prosecco Superiore.
