Holiday Gifting Starts Here!
Brand new gift boxes, educational opportunities, and more this year in our 2024 gift guide!
Upcoming Twin Cities Classes, Wine Tastings & Special Events
Celebrate the winter holidays with us at our Holiday Music Bar Pop-Up! Stop by the Event Space before or after your holiday shopping to warm up with hot drinks, snacks, and live holiday tunes by Norah Long and Jerry Rubino. Families are welcome as always – no tickets required!
We’ll be pouring our absolute favorite champagnes and sparkling wines from around the world. There may or not be a disco ball and other fun, New Year’s Eve themed decor.. and did we mention lots of champagne?
Join us for an evening of wintery wines to warm you up, from decadent reds to luscious whites and perhaps a surprise or two. You’ll sit down for a short lecture and tasting flight, then enjoy a self-guided tour through more tasting stations, complete with cheese & charcuterie from the Cheese Shop. This just might be the perfect antidote to January!
