THIS WOW IS CRAZY GOOD:

So, you like Rombauer Chardonnay?

Well, you’re really going to like this
week’s WOW, which is just as good
but about fifteen bucks less.

We’re talking about the 2012 William Hill
Chardonnay:

Ripe tree fruit and heady notes of baked apple
are supported by layers of caramel, brown spice
buttered crackers, and toasted oak flavors.
This wine has a rich palate and silky mouthfeel,
with moderate sweetness and a long, lingering finish.

Just $19.97, this is sheer deliciousness and
should come with a Surgeon General’s warning.
It’s that addictive.

Available to taste all week long!

WINESDAY FLIGHT:

This Winesday, 10/23, welcome Jim back

William Hill Chardonnay 2012, $19.97

OCTOBERFEST THIS SATURDAY!

Is it mere coincidence that we won
permission to serve beer right before
October?

Is it further coincidence that October
is known for a gigantic beer-related
party known as Octoberfest?

We think not!

We, therefore, are throwing our first-ever
Octoberfest this Saturday, 10/16, from 3-8 pm.

What’s in it for you? How ’bout delicious
bratwurst, hot off the grill! (plus all
the fixins, of course)

How ’bout ice cold beer on tap!

Plus, if you’re lucky, Bill may even dance
a polka for you!!

Of course, we still are and always will be a
wine shop and wine bar, so all wines at the
bar will be available at just a buck per taste.

In addition, we will have VERY special pricing
on select beers. For example, Stone Pale Ale
and IPA will be on sale at just $7.99/six pack.

Here’s how the beer & brats thing will work.
You’ll purchase tickets at $3 each, or 4/$10,
and those will be redeemed for your choice of
a bratwurst or a beer on tap.

Then all you need to do is eat, drink,
and have an awesome time!!

This being the last Saturday before
Halloween, it is entirely acceptable
to show up in costume.

Join us in saying goodbye to October,
and hello to beer!!
