Mary Taylor Wine in store Weds., May 15th!!
We have a MUST ATTEND event for you this Wednesday with Mary Taylor Wine, run by a woman who I’ve been trying to get in here for over two years, since I first met her at the shop when she came through town. I immediately had it in my head, and told her local rep,…
’24 Spring Rosé Case!!
Looking back over past emails I realized I usually have a “Spring Rosé Case” out in early to mid March, but obviously this year it took a little while for Mother Nature to get us all in the mood for refreshing pink wine. But the past few days, and checking long term forecasts, it seems…
