About Crush
 Crush owners Bob Laggini and Janet Besanceney and their staff will offer us organic wine from Gemtree, a vineyard that is leading the greening movement in Australia. In addition,they will offer a selection of organic cheeses. All of Crush's food is made from the
freshest ingredients, with as much of it as possible being organic. Crush Winehouse is fashioned after the many traditional wine bars
scattered throughout the Italian countryside, where family owned social
spots serve as the gathering place for local residents and tourists
alike. Crush is the only wine bar in Annapolis offering retail sales
of all of their wines, essentially allowing customers a
'try-before-you-buy' opportunity. So don't worry about finishing a bottle at Crush -- you can take it come.

What is Green Drinks?
Green Drinks is a monthly (more or less) get-together that gives the environmentally minded a chance to get to know one another in a fun, informal way facilitating connections and working together for a common cause: The Health of the Chesapeake Bay. We are apart of an amazing international group, greendrinks.org, with over 600 like us all around the world. Of course, we think our Annapolis crew is the best!
