Wine Tasting Please Join Us Friday June 25th - 6-9 p.m. No Charge
Otto's Constant Dream Sauvignon Blanc $14
This gem from New Zealand has a lovely citrus start then a briny finish with a touch of herbal tones and tropical fruit. Well, we are talking about New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc after all! We would put this up against Cloudy Bay in a brown paper bag and choose it at half the price. Perfect with Brie & Bleu fish tacos.
Otto's Constant Dream Pinot Noir $16
The winemaker was unable to import anything labeled "OCD" because it apparently has to do with some sort of medical condition (that part is actually true...) Here at the wine shop we are obsessive and compulsive about Pinot Noir and every time we issue a superlative we are rebutted... So, again under 20 bucks we offer an ethereal fresh wild raspberry Pinot with a tangy, loamy character. Bright and perfect for the warm weather and sublime with a seared salmon salad.
Baguala Malbec $8
 Another totally obscure bargain - change up your super-affordable Malbec! Variety is the spice of life!
This wine has all the rich cherry fruit smoke and detail still without breaking a ten-spot.
We pair it with the beef tips and mushrooms. Tasted on your behalf, but you'd better try it yourself Friday!

Our Experts Know Tobacco
 Not Ad Agencies & Trade Shows
When we started offering cigars we thought that we would use the same guidelines that we use at our wine store.
That is we will not necessarily offer big mainstream brands driven by ad campaigns and are available everywhere.
We have nothing against these big name brands - but if they are available at a Quickie-Mart - we don't need to carry them.
Instead we try to offer a thoughtfully selected variety of Seriously Fine cigars.
Please stop in to have a look.
 Please stop in and enjoy our one-of-a-kind cigar lounge.
Lounge Open Until 8 p.m. Every Wednesday
