Friday June 25th - 6-9 p.m.
No Charge

Otto's Constant Dream Sauvignon Blanc $14

This gem from New Zealand has a lovely citrus start then a briny finish with a touch of herbal tones and tropical fruit. Well, we are talking about New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc after all! We would put this up against Cloudy Bay in a brown paper bag and choose it at half the price. Perfect with Brie & Bleu fish tacos.

Otto's Constant Dream Pinot Noir $16

The winemaker was unable to import anything labeled "OCD" because it apparently has to do with some sort of medical condition (that part is actually true...) Here at the wine shop we are obsessive and compulsive about Pinot Noir and every time we issue a superlative we are rebutted... So, again under 20 bucks we offer an ethereal fresh wild raspberry Pinot with a tangy, loamy character. Bright and perfect for the warm weather and sublime with a seared salmon salad.

Baguala Malbec $8

Baguala Malbec
Another totally obscure bargain - change up your super-affordable Malbec! Variety is the spice of life!


This wine has all the rich cherry fruit smoke and detail still without breaking a ten-spot.



We pair it with the beef tips and mushrooms. Tasted on your behalf, but you'd better try it yourself Friday!



Please Join Us - it's fun, informal, and a great way to start your weekend.

Think of us as Wine - "With Benefits."

AAA.
