Brown Derby Wine Center & Marketplace

It’s April 1st and the marketplace is already geared up for Spring. 🌸 Come by and browse our wonderful selection of cookbooks, linens, fresh scents, tableware and holiday decor. 🐣

The coffee bar at @derbydeli opens at 9 AM, Monday–Saturday! If you haven’t stopped by yet, it’s time—grab an espresso drink (we’re partial to a classic cortado or cappuccino) and pair it with a pastry from @buttermilkrules. Enjoy your coffee on our patio during these perfect spring mornings, settle into a cozy spot inside, or take advantage of our tasting room overflow seating and free WiFi. Stick around for lunch at 11 AM, and when you’re ready to switch gears, our Wine Station makes it easy to transition from coffee to wine—sip by the ounce, no commitment required. ☕️🍷🥖

The Wine Station is open at @brownderbywinecenter! Whether you’re swinging by for a quick sip or settling in for a full tasting experience, we’ve got 20+ wines by the glass, under $10. Casual or classy, spontaneous or planned—we’re here for every occasion. 🥂

It’s 🍷 Wine Wednesday ⏰ and we’re featuring this Weeknight Red Burgundy. 2023 Chateau de Chamilly Bourgogne Rouge Regularly $35.99 • On Sale for $29.98 • Mix 6 for 26.98 Affordable Red Burgundy, that you’d actually want to drink, has become about as elusive as Eagle Rare bourbon. So when we find one, we double down. This Chalonnaise bottling drinks above both its appellation and price tag. The concentration from the old vines give it a sense of gravitas not often found in Bourgogne level wines and almost never when they hail from this into Chardonnay country! • 100% Pinot Noir—40-70 year old vines • Chalonnaise with French character • One year in barrel and 6 months in tank before bottling • Drinks like village wine but for half the price

It’s almost time for lunch! Stop in and enjoy it with us at the @derbydeli. We’ve been craving our Tarragon Chicken Salad Sandwich lately —with housemade chicken salad, Broadbent’s applewood-smoked bacon, lettuce, tomato, mayo on toasted wheatberry bread. 🤤

It’s 🥂 Wine Wednesday ⏰ and this week we are featuring this Benchmark Alpine White. 2022 Domaine La Colombe Fechy Chasselas Regularly $31.99 • Mix 6 for $28.79 If you’re feeling a little adventurous, don’t miss this benchmark Swiss white. Chesselas is characterized by a neutral profile that is neither polarizing nor boring. You’ll find some apple blossom and melon accented with a cooling herb component. Its best home is around Lake Genevia in Switzerland (Fechy specifically here), but you can still find examples in the Loire Valley, etc. Come by and crack a bottle with a croque monsieur from the deli or raid the cheese case for a fondue night at home! • 100% Chasselas—30+ year old vines • Unique but not weird—somewhere between Pinot Gris and Chardonnay • Biodynamic farming • Fantastic with melty cheeses and mushroom tart

🍷Wine Wednesday ⏰ this week is this Big Bordeaux Value! 2018 Chateau Ducluzeau Listrac-Medoc Regularly $19.99 • On Sale for $16.97 • Mix 6 for $15.27 Bruno Borie is a prominent Bordeaux winemaker, primarily known for managing Château Ducru-Beaucaillou, a prestigious Second Growth estate in the Saint-Julien appellation. This is the last vintage of the Ducluzeau label and it is exceptional! The wine was crafted using the same high-end techniques and equipment from his primary Ducru-Beaucaillou operation, including advanced methods like optical sorting and fractional pressing. • Majority Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot • Made by Bruno Borie of Ch Ducru-Beaucaillou • Last of its kind • 92 points Jeb Dunnuck

To get our employees safely home, @brownderbywinecenter is closing at noon! Stay safe out there, folks! 🌨️
