FAREWELL TO KIMBERLY:

It is time once again to say goodbye to a terrific member of our team here at NCWC.

Kimberly Matthews is a dedicated hospitality pro with an impressive resume and
impeccable credentials. We were lucky to work with her for a while and always
knew she would spread her wings and fly one day. That day has come.

She has accepted a super cool job working at the San Francisco Wine School,
and this Tuesday, today, is her last day here. She will work the closing shift from
5-9, and we hope you come down to say goodbye and wish her luck!

While we of course are sad to see her go, we are very excited for her and pleased
to see her moving forward in the industry she loves so much.

Thank you, Kimberly, and good luck!!!

TRICK OR TREAT!

This Wednesday is Halloween, or “Hallo-Wine” as we call it. And we will celebrate with a ghoulish, fiendish, monster of a Top Flight of bloody reds!

Check it out. Just $10 to get a half glass each of these:

Sans Liege The Offering 2015. 90 points Jeb Dunnuck.

Luca Malbec 2015. 93 points Jeb Dunnuck.

Opolo Mountain Zinfandel 2016. 93 points Wine Enthusiast, just 19.97/bottle,
and our WINE OF THE WEEK. Here’s that 93-point note:

“Shows cohesive aromas of black plum, strawberry sorbet, vanilla and nutmeg on the nose. The palate is full, rounded and rich in plum jam flavor, but with enough baking spice and a strong crushed rock minerality to add elegance and intrigue.”

Now THAT’S how you Trick or Treat! Available any time between 4 and 9. As an
added bonus Wednesday only, anyone who has the flight will get a BONUS POUR of
Dow’s 10-year Tawny Port (if you want).

See you this Hallo-Wine!
