A question of utmost importance has emerged at the shoppe: Who can hold the most wine glasses in one hand?
Is it Christopher, with years of hospitality muscle memory? 💪
Gwen, fueled by sheer determination and a healthy disregard for gravity? 🧀
Stefanie, whose creativity knows no bounds? ✨
Or Genevieve, quietly plotting her victory all along? 👀
The competition was fierce. The stakes were high. The glasses were… surprisingly numerous. Watch the video to see who claims the crown—and then stop by this weekend to witness our highly specialized talents live and in person.

🍷🧀 June Wine Society: The Art of the Blend 🧀🍷This month, we’re exploring one of the most exciting ideas in wine and cheese: the beauty of things coming together. Our June 2026 Wine Society release is dedicated to blends across the globe—wines that combine varietals, regions, textures, and personalities into something entirely unique. Blending allows winemakers to take familiar grapes and transform them into new experiences: a Cabernet softened by Merlot, a bright white layered with aromatic varieties, or a Rhône-inspired blend where spice, fruit, and earthiness all play together in harmony.
It’s a reminder that wine is never just one thing. Through blending, familiar varietals become more dynamic, more expressive, and often more surprising. We’re carrying that same spirit into our cheese selections as well, featuring cheeses crafted from a blend of milks—cow, sheep, goat, and beyond. Each milk brings its own character: richness, tang, sweetness, nuttiness, depth. Together, they create cheeses with complexity and balance impossible to achieve alone.
This release is about contrast and collaboration. Structure meeting softness. Boldness meeting elegance. Different elements finding harmony together. Because sometimes the most memorable flavors come not from standing apart—but from blending beautifully together.
Interested in joining? Be a part of a community of curious wine and cheese lovers and enjoy free tastings, member-only experiences, exclusive savings, and quarterly themed selections handpicked to educate, surprise, and delight. Ask us next time you're in the shoppe!

WEEKLY SPECIAL DROP 🚨🚨🚨
This weekend, we’re bringing together coastal comfort and vibrant Southeast Asian flavors in one unforgettable bowl of creamy crab pasta. Sweet crab is folded into a luscious sauce of crème fraîche and milk, infused with Thai basil, Thai chili, lemon, ginger, and warm hints of star anise. Fresh tomatoes add bursts of brightness throughout, while a finishing garnish of salmon roe delivers pops of briny richness that elevate every bite.
Creamy, aromatic, citrusy, and just a little spicy, this is the kind of dish that keeps revealing new layers of flavor from the first forkful to the last. Available all weekend long—while supplies last. Come grab a bowl and see what everyone’s talking about. 🦀✨🍷
