Although we frequently feature some familiar names (all at extremely competitive prices!), our forte is locating the small production, high quality items that are just not found in the large chain stores and supermarkets. There’s nothing we like better than discovering a great new Cabernet or Merlot at a rock-bottom price!

Our knowledgeable staff scours the wine publications and spends endless hours speaking to the importers and distributors in order to search out great bargains in the world of wine. And by virtue of our on-site ownership and independent nature, we are able to move quickly to secure allocations of these top scoring and highly sought-after items.

Tastings

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 "Grape Nuts" E-mail list for all of you out there who like to be kept informed of the latest wine news & release dates. (This is a separate listing than that of our "regular" Green Turtle customer e-mailing.)

And finally, don’t miss out on attending one of our signature "Wine Tasting 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 to no more than 30 people and most all of them have sold-out!

Tastings last for approximately two hours, and are usually held on Tuesday or Wednesday evenings beginning at 7:45 pm (after the store has closed). Costs vary depending upon the wines to be tasted, although they average approximately $25 -- $30 per person. Please see our Special Events section for the latest information
