***********************************************
Be sure to come by the store on Fridays from 4:00-6:30 PM for our "happy hour" to try some wines – we frequently have winery reps and distributors visiting with us and sampling their wines, and we always have a few new treasures open on Saturdays as well.
Stop in and sign up for our special "Through the Grapevine" E-mail list for all of you out there who like to be kept informed of the latest wine news & release dates.
And finally, don’t miss out on attending one of our signature Wine Tastings and Themed Dinner Events. These are held monthly and feature a certain "theme" wine region or perhaps grape varietal. We usually sample a dozen or so wines – along with some appropriate cheeses, hors d’oeuvres, and dessert. Reservations are essential for these classes, as seating is limited and most all of them have sold-out!
Tastings last for approximately two hours, and are usually held Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday evenings beginning at 7:00 pm in our beautiful Grapevine Cafe. Costs vary depending upon the wines and food to be tasted. Please see our Calendar of Events for the latest information.
