Ever wonder just how much a w**e’s growing region can influence what ends up in your glass? THIS is a fun way to find out. 🍷

We’re featuring FOUR stellar whites from Zuccardi side by side on the W**estation, showcasing different varietals and the unique micro-terroirs and climates of Argentina’s Uco Valley.

And the timing couldn’t be better: it’s W**eStation Weekend, which means 15% OFF ALL W**estation pours!

Come explore the lineup, ask us questions, and let us help you find your next favorite bottle. Great w**e, a little discovery, and absolutely no pretentiousness required. ❤️🍷

You guys really don’t like waiting for Ch*****ne Jam… 😂🥂

Earlier this year, you asked us to do two Ch*****ne Jams a year instead of making you wait all the way until fall.

So we listened.

We added the Summer Ch*****ne Soirée as a little extra bubbly bonus to the calendar—and you guys showed up BIG for it.

Then, almost as soon as the summer event was over, we started hearing:

“Okay…when’s the Fall Ch*****ne Jam?”

Well, here it is. 😉

Our annual Fall Ch*****ne Jam is happening Saturday, November 7th at 6PM!

We’re going back to what started it all with an evening of 10 incredible sparkling w**es & Ch*****nes, light hors d’oeuvres, plenty of bubbles, and a Riedel stem to take home.

🍷 Blind Tasting Not Your Thing? We’ve Got You.

You don’t have to test your palate to have a pretty great time at the W**estation this weekend.

Because while the Viognier blind tasting is getting a lot of the attention, the rest of the lineup is seriously, ridiculously good right now. We’re talking the kind of bottles that make you stop after the first sip and go, “Ohhh… THAT’S good.” 👀

With 28 w**es by the ounce, there’s plenty to explore. Plus, it’s still W**estation Weekend:

📅 15% OFF ALL 28 W**ESTATION POURS TODAY 🍷

🍂 WARM FALL WEATHER + A LITTLE W**E NERDERY = A PRETTY GOOD FRIDAY. 🍷

Starting TODAY: our Viognier Blind Tasting is hitting the W**estation!

We’ve lined up FOUR different 100% Viogniers from four different geographies, poured side by side so you can taste how much place can influence the same grape.

And trust us… these Viogniers are GOOD. 👀

Today’s warm weather is pretty much perfect for a little palate testing before tomorrow’s rain rolls in. Grab a W**estation card and see what you can pick out.

But don’t wait too long—these bottles may not make it through the entire weekend.

AND because it’s WIN​​ESTATION WEEKEND…

🍷 15% OFF ALL 28 W**ESTATION POURS
📅 TODAY + TOMORROW

Four Viogniers. Four places. One grape.
Come taste the difference. 🍷

Fall weather understood the assignment. 🍂🍷

Tonight’s pour: Mousai 2024 Pinot Noir — perfectly balanced, with just the right mix of fruit, earthiness, and freshness. Basically, a Pinot that pairs with this weather perfectly.

Cooler temps, a good bottle, and nowhere else you need to be. Sounds like a pretty good weekend to us.

What are you drinking this weekend? 🍷

Mild temps, sunshine, and some very good reasons to make a stop today. ☀️🍻🍷

We don’t carry a ton of b**r.
But what we do carry, we’re pretty proud of.

And today, we’ve got TWO Maine B**r Company b**rs on tap at the same time:
🍺 Little Whaleboat IPA
🍺 Woods & Waters IPA

It’s not exactly an everyday thing to find either one on tap around here…much less both at once. 😉

And if w**e is more your Saturday speed, it’s the LAST DAY of W**eStation Weekend — all 28 W**eStation pours are 15% OFF today.

So come enjoy this ridiculously nice little stretch of beach-fall weather, grab a b**r, sip through the W**eStation, sit on the patio, and let us help you find something good.

Saturday looks pretty good from here. 🌊☀️🍷🍻

WE’RE STARTING W**ESTATION WEEKEND EARLY AGAIN.🍷

15% off all W**estation pours starts TODAY — Thursday!

And we’ve got a pretty great lineup waiting for you:

🌸 Rosés
🥂 Whites
🍷 Reds
…and plenty of bottles worth discovering.

Our W**estations are one of the best ways to explore w**e without committing to a whole bottle. Sip an ounce, try something completely different, find a new favorite — or let us help you figure out what to take home.

So come enjoy this amazing fall weather, grab a glass, try something new, and hang out with us for a while.🍷

Fall has officially arrived… Wilmington-style. 🍂🌴

Mild temps. Cloudy skies. Patio weather.

Basically, fall without having to give up our coastal lifestyle just yet. 😂

So grab a glass, grab a bottle, or come play around with the W**estation and find something new.

We’re ready for fall. Just maybe not the sweaters yet.🍷🍂🌊

Cloudy Tuesday. First day of fall. And apparently, the perfect excuse to put a magnum of 2015 La Rioja Alta Gran Reserva 904 on the W**estation. 🍂🍷

Because if the weather is going to start acting like fall, we might as well pour something that feels like it.

This is one of those special bottles that reminds us why we love the W**estation — you can explore w**es you might not normally open at home, by the ounce, and see what happens. And yes, today that happens to be a seriously gorgeous, aged Rioja… in a magnum. 😍

Come in, grab an ounce (or two… or five), and settle into fall with us.🍷🍂
