What are we drinking for turkey day? Thanksgiving feast is a wonderful occasion to have a variety of wines at the table that may different style, color, texture, and price point because the menu is, also, so diverse.

Fall Feature: Sippers for the Season

Dare we say it: the holidays are upon us. For some of you that may sound daunting, and for others, this may be music to your ears. Personally, we're more than ready for the romantically crisp weather, the bourbon-focused cocktails, the roasted meats and warm stews, and the gatherings of eating and drinking amongst family and friends. One of our favorite ways to get psyched for an upcoming seasonal change is to find a few new wines that we deem perfect fall/winter sippers and share them with you, our wonderfully astute, wine connoisseur-y customers. Not only are the wines [...]

What are we drinking? Chillable Reds!

What is a Chillable Red? You may have recently noticed our chilled reds section in our cooler or seen a tag on a red wine in the shop that says, “Chill me!” For some, a chilled red reminds them of bad Italian restaurants where ALL the wine has been chilled to a flavorless level, and, for others, it may remind you of your friend who always takes her Cab with ice. We’re not here to judge anyone’s methods of enjoyment, but let us explain what WE imagine a “chillable red” to be and why it’s getting so much press [...]

Our Potentially Haunted Wines of the Month for October

Most people go their whole lives without getting a photo of Sasquatch. We ventured out to photograph our October Wines of the Month and just happened to capture a Sasquatch in every photo. We don't know if the wines themselves attracted the Sasquatches, but we do know that you will thoroughly embrace these eight wines as fall progresses into a chillier rhythm. Finca Bacara Monastrell Jumilla, Spain Spooky, smooth & spectacular. Time Waits For No One (we don't know who Tom Waits waits for) is our answer to October’s spooky, chilly, breezy dark season. 100% Monastrell — we're talking [...]

What’s With That Cheese? Well, White Wine!

With fall arriving, it's time to think about delicious seasonal cheeses, and the wines that match. Thanks to Bill St John, we have a cheat sheet for you! What’s With That Cheese? Well, White Wine! By and large, and despite common assumptions, white wines do a better job than red wines as regular partners for cheese. The higher native acidity of white wines is a happier match for both the high salt and fat of most cheeses. Read on: Comté (France) with white Côtes du Rhône Emmenthaler (Switzerland) with Dry Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre or New Zealand) Fresh Goat with [...]
