Notes From the Cellar…..
Boo! Happy Halloween!
Join us this Halloween weekend from 3-6 Fri & Sat as we sample a pair of excellent wine selections that pair wonderfully with hearty meals. We have seasonal beers covered from Avery, Dogfish Head, Post Road, Shipyard, and Delirium; and new beers from Maine Beer Company, Bitburger & Sixpoint. Also, be sure to try our selection of craft spirits available for sampling. This is a big weekend for entertaining with Halloween parties and the big Patriots game Sunday, and we have everything you need to entertain well!
Special arrival! We were lucky enough to secure a few bottles of the '12 Beaux Frères 'Zena Crown' Pinot Noir, Eola/Amity, OR.
Please note a change in hours: We will be closed Sundays until Nov. 9 for the holidays.
As always take 10% off purchase of 3 wines from our tasting table.

This robust red is a blended from 57% Malbec, 20% Merlot, 11% Syrah, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 4% Petit Verdot. Cassis, plum, and spice are found on the nose and the palate accompanied by balanced acidity and smooth, velvety tannins on the finish.Pair this with lamb, dark game meat or beef chorizo. $21.99
