We are very proud to announce that today we are pouring four tremendous wine from the acclaimed Betz Family Winery.

In 1975 Bob Betz started his 28 year career at Chateau St. Michelle. In 1997 Bob and his wife Cathy crushed their first grapes for Betz family Winery, In 1998 Bob received his Master of Wine degree. Bob and Cathy sold their winery to Steve and Bridgett Griessel in 2011, with Bob remaining on as the winery patriarch, mentor and winemaker. And in 2024, local company, Ackley Brands purchases Betz Family Winery, keeping current winemaker, Louis Skinner on as lead.



2021, Besoleil: A blend of 60% Grenache, 20% Mourvedre, 12% Counoise and 8% Petite Sirah. Cherry, fruity and succulent with fresh florals and delightful mineral and potpourri essences, the nose is bright and focused. Medium to full-bodied, this Besoleil offers a ripe and juicy frame of fruit before lingering notions of wet earth and soft cherry blossom essence sway on the fresh balanced finish. Wine Advocate awarded this wine 93 points. $59.99/$53.99



2021, La Cote Rousse: The wine boasts a pleasing dark purple and ruby core. It’s another stunning example of Syrah from the Betz team. Interesting and complex, it finishes with a lovely floral and herbal aspect on the mid-palate, with a full bodied mouthfeel, balanced levels of acidity and sweet rounded, tannins finishing things off. 100% Syrah. International Wine report awarded this wine 97 points. $64.99/$58.49



2021, The Untold Story: 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Petit Verdot, 5% Merlot, 3% Mourvedre and 2% Grenache. This is a smoking wine that folks should take notice of. Black currant, blueberry, to***co, truffle and spicy oak notes define it bouquet. An elegant mouthfeel, good acidity, fine tannins are all wrapped up with generous amounts of black and red fruits. Jeb Dunnuck awarded this wine 93 points. $46.99/$42.29



2019, Clos de Betz: 51% Merlot, 28% Petit Verdot and 21% Cabernet Sauvignon. Fresh aromas of red cherry, juicy plum and black raspberry with delightful dusty and floral notes that wafts from the glass. Medium to full bodied, the palate is focused and precise, showing impressive mineral tension, mouth watering acidity and fine grained tannins. Wine Advocate awarded this wine 94 points. $86.99/$78.29

Join us this afternoon for a great wine tasting.

In 1996, Ernst Loosen took over the J.L. Wolf winery in the Pfalz region, which has been rich in tradition since 1756. Similar to the Dr. Loosen winery, Ernst Loosen seized the opportunity to rebuild another traditional winery with prime sites. For here he saw the opportunity to produce first-class dry wines in the Pfalz to complement the fruity Rieslings of the Dr. Loosen winery on the Mosel.

2022, Pinot Gris: The 2022 vintage was another challenging viticultural thrill ride because of extreme weather throughout the growing season. Fermented in neutral oak, concrete and stainless, with no malolactic fermentation. This wine speaks generosity with ripe pears and apples with freshness by a twist of lime. White flowers and quince make for a textured weight through the palate, with elements of slate and spice leading to a refreshing finish of good length. $17.99/$16.19

2021, Pinot Blanc: Delicately dry, it offers a charming balance of fruitiness and acidity. Its palate is adorned with refreshing flavors of apple, peach and lemon zest. A hint of spice and smoky minerality broadens its complexity. This light bodied Pinot Blanc is cultivated in Pfalz, an area known for its warm, sunny climate, contributing to the wine’s rounded maturity, $17.99/$16.19

2020, Sauvignon Blanc: A softer style Sauv Blanc with notes of apple, peach and white flowers. The acidity is noticeable, but retrained. Citrus oil, green plum, nectarine and white rose petal can be found on a very balanced palate. $16.99/$15.29

2022, Pinot Noir: Pinot Noir has a long tradition in the Pfalz region, where it is known as Spätburgunder. The Villa Wolf Pinot Noir is warm and medium-bodied, with a firm acid structure. Its bright black-cherry fruit is juicy, ripe, and forward, with a spicy midpalate and lingering finish. A minimum of twelve months of aging in used French oak barriques gives the wine a smoky depth and a nice touch of earthy tannins. $20.99/$18.89

Azienda Viticola Zenato, or better known as just Zenato has been a fixture of the wine landscape of Valpolicella for seven decades. Sergio Zenato began his winery with just a couple of hectares of land. Today there are about 94 hectares under vines. Today Sergios children Nadia and Alberto run the show.

Stop by today, and sample some of the best wines from Veneto.

2022, Pinot Grigio: Lemon-green in color, aromas of Key limes and white peaches complement undertones of green apples and grains of paradise. On the palate, it is smooth and refreshing with a long, pleasant finish. A great choice for any occasion, but it is ideal with hors d'oeuvres, vegetable soups, fresh garden salads, and grilled fish. $15.99/$14.31



2020, Valpolicella, Superiore: Ruby red in color, this Valpolicella Superiore offers fleshy aromas of wild berries, black currants, black cherries, and spices, with hints of chocolate. On the palate, the wine is dry and robust with velvety texture. A delightful blend of 85% Corvina, 10% Rondinella and 5% Corvinone. Pair this wine with antipasti, arrabbiata sauces, seared sashimi tuna, or orange-glazed duck. James Suckling awarded this wine 90 points. $19.99/$17.99



2019, Valpolicella Superiore, Ripassa: This wine is closely connected to the greatest wine of Valpolicella: Amarone. After pressing the dried grapes from which Amarone is made, the Valpolicella wine is passed over the still warm marc of Amarone. A second alcoholic fermentation begins which increases the alcoholic content and the wine becomes richer in color, bouquet. A lovely mix of red berries, bright orange peel and spicy cedar on the nose, following through to a full, round and silky palate with very fine tannins that are well integrated into the texture. Lots of flavor and good length. Hard not to settle down to a glass or two of this. James Suckling awarded this wine 93 points. $31.99/$28.79



2017, Amarone della Valpolicella, Classico: This classic Amarone opens up with dark and ripe black cherry and plum mixed with sweet baking spices and roasted coffee. The wine's palate is focused on its primary blackberry fruit notes with chocolate and sweet and savory spices. The wine is well structured with supple tannins and a long finish. The wine is aged for 36 months in large Slavonian oak casks then in bottle for another 18 months before release. A blend of Corvina, Rondinella, Molinara and Croatina. Decanter Magazine awarded this wine 96 points. $72.99/$65.69
