Needing something sweet for your holiday parties? We've got you covered!
For those of you who have been waiting: we have the Ukranian Bomon Shampe Angel Ruby Semi-Sweet sparkling wine back in stock! This was the fan-favorite at our Red Wine tasting event in September. Deep dark ruby color, spicy on the nose with berry jam & dark chocolate flavors on the palate. Produced by the oldest enterprise in Ukraine.

We also have Il Furetto Brachetto d’Acqui, a fabulous sweet dark red sparkling with a bouquet of intense crisp fruit, particularly that of strawberry & cherry with hints of rose petals.

Don't forget Statement Rosé Port! Served chilled, it has aromas of dried strawberries, herbs, &
Marzipan, with flavors of strawberry, almonds, spice, vanilla, & maraschino cherries.

We're open 3-9 Wed-Sat; 12-5 Sun. Come by and check out the rest of our retail!

Ahhhhhhh dreaming of sunnier days. This video was sent to us from a customer who picked up a bottle of Bocelli Sparkling Rose on the way to a friend's patio. We personally love the hand modeling going on! 😆 You can buy bottles to go from our beverage menu for %10 off the listed price, and of course we have some great wines in our retail section as well!
