Holiday Shopping Primer

The calendar is moving pretty quickly now, so we can only suggest that you get your holiday shopping done at your earliest opportunity. Lets talk a little more about holiday shopping.

Store hours. We will maintain regular store hours until December 24, Christmas Eve. As a reminder, that means 9am-10pm Monday through Saturday, and 9am-7pm on Sunday. On Christmas Eve, we'll be open from 9am to 7pm. Looking ahead, we'll be open 9am-8pm on New Years Eve.

Some of our Beer gift sets

Gift Sets. We still have a great selection of gift sets in all product categories. And for most (not all) of our gift sets, the item is priced the same as that product is regularly. What's not to love about that? Most gift sets are available in limited quantities, which is another reason to get our holiday shopping finished (started?) as soon as you can.

Gift Cards. Visit any cashier for a Gift Card purchase, which are available in any denomination that you choose.

New Products. We'll continue to get new products on a regular basis, although there will be a bit of a slowdown through the end of December. Here's a look at some of our newest arrivals:

Clos du Bois Rouge. Deep ruby red in color, this charming red blend opens with aromas of black cherry and plum, with hints of sandalwood, vanilla, and brown spice. A mouthful of sweet fruit and full-bodied lushness follows, with a juicy, concentrated blackberry fruit entry balanced by milk chocolate and spice on the finish.

This rich, jammy blend will pair nicely with a wide range of foods, including steak, ribs, and hamburgers off the grill. 52% Syrah, 21% Zinfandel, 13% Petite Sirah, 7% Merlot, 7% Other.

Winery price is $15. Our regular price is $11.99, and our Bottle Club® price is only $9.99.

Calamares Vinho Verde. Calamares comes from the heart of the "Vinho Verde" wine region from a single estate of the "Quinta da Devesa."

The name "Calamares" was developed to create an association with the unpretentious and relaxed nature of the region and its wines. It is closely tied with the local cuisine and lifestyle.

The wines are young with high acidity and moderate alcohol, and are meant to be enjoyed at any occasion.

Crisp and refreshing, this white is the perfect accompaniment to all kinds of seafood, salads, mild cheeses, or simply on its own. The Bottle Club® price is too low to publish, so please take a moment to find this amazing value when you're shopping with us.

Not in the Holiday Spirit. Someone deliberately dumped the equivalent of 400,000 bottles of wine at an Italian winery. Click here for the story.
