We've gathered our wreaths and trees from the most Brooklyn spot, a perfect triangle for the window and the tallest, most handsome one yet for the shop floor. We propped them and watered them and circled them with lights and ribbon and garlands of seashells. We covered them in things we like that happen to be shades of ivory and gold- tinsel and tassels, little clocks and bunches of grapes, topped it with a reminder that Teams Win ;-). A sweet customer surprised us with hand-knitted ornaments in the shapes of a bell and a boot and an angel. Our window holds a new board with a quote from one of the best films of all time, “It's a Wonderful Life”. As always, we hid a pickle in the tree.

 

We hope you're finding a way to slow it down and enjoy this time- it can feel hectic, but as our very own angel, Mabel, reminds us- it's supposed to be fun!

 

Below you'll find details on the Perfect Gift Pack, this month's Dahling Wine Bundle, our Holiday Hours, dates of the last few Tastings of the year, and a reminder about our Toy Drive (now extended through 12/18!). 

 

Speaking of Angels, the quote in the window that we mentioned is from one named Clarence, “No Man Is a Failure Who Has Friends”. Thank you for being ours. It's an honor to serve this community.

 

We'll see you at the shop!

Prosecco di Valdobbiadene Superiore Brut
 "Bosca di Gica" NV Adami
The Champagne of Prosecco, from the dramatically high hills of Valdobbiadene, they may as well call them Jurassic Park. Long and delicate with notes of orchard fruit and white flower beautifully balanced by crisp acidity & stoney minerality.
 
Pinot Grigio 2022 Maso Poli
From a hardworking family in the Dolimite foothills of Trentino. Crisp & fresh & driving with elegant notes of pear, tangerine, and acacia flower.
 
Chianti Classico "Rubiolo" 2022 Gagliole
Gagliole's vineyards are nestled into terraces built during Roman times in the slopes of Tuscany's Panzano. It's a sight to see and a sip to savor.  100% Sangiovese benefits from the region's famous galestro soil - vibrant, chiseled, saline red cherry fruit, rusty dusty satisfaction.
