Two French Winemakers Pouring Tastes for the Price of None (it's free!)

Saturday Free Wine Tasting... Meet Two French Winemakers for the Price of None (it's free) Drop by our shop between 1 and 3pm on Saturday to taste great soon-to-be new arrivals from Jo Landron in Muscadet and Emmanuel Rybinski of Cahors. This is a first glimpse at small-grower wines we'll be receiving next week, so come sip, speak to the folks who made the wine, and reserve some bottles of the wines you like. As a wine guy I've grown accustomed to risk-free try-before-you-buy wine shopping. It is a joy I'd like to extend to as many to our customers as is humanly possible.
