WINE OF THE WEEK:

We just received the current vintage of a perennial favorite – the 2016 Bogle
Essential Red. 88 points and a “Best Buy” from Wine Enthusiast:

“This friendly red wine is medium to full bodied, shows warm generous fruit flavors like black cherries and blackberries and has a smooth texture that keeps it easy to sip.”

This blend of Old Vine Zinfandel, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah is luscious from start to finish. And our price of 8.97/bottle makes it a terrific stock-up option for the holidays.

Come and get it! 🙂

CHAMPAGNE CLASS!

We have another Wine Class coming up! The date is Monday 11/18, from 6-8 pm.

This time our educator extraordinaire, Cat Vanettes, will be teaching you about
Champagne and other Sparkling wines from around the world. And of course
you will be tasting while you learn! There will be snacks as well.

Cost for everything is $35/person. Space considerations mean we have to limit
attendance, and we have only a few spots left. So give us a call at 760-653-9032
or stop in to reserve a space. Cheers!

This coming weekend, the 15th and 16th, we will be providing an epic “Top Shelf”
