Annndddd…we’re OFF!!!!

By Amy

YIPPIEEEEE!!!! Been meaning to blog to you all about our exciting news: OUR LIQUOR LICENSE WAS APPROVED!!!!! So, we are officially moving forward, FINALLY! Finishing up the lease details with upstairs and are to be given a for sure date of occupancy this week (tentative for mid-July).

Once we’re in we’ll be having a “Shell of a party” so that you can see the BEFORE blank canvas and then an AFTER pre-opening party for current customers once we’ve put the “sass” on the place. I’ll let you know just as soon as I have a date for the initial gathering.

This Sunday is Father’s Day…treat the “hard to buy for” dads in your life to red wine, savory treats, and decadent chocolates.

What’s new?:

VOLUSPA CANDLES: JAMES BOYCE VINTAGE COLLECTION – Created by internationally renowned chef is six amazing kitchen-inspired fragrances using unique natural and organic ingredients to both compliment the food in your kitchen and to remove cooking odors. The collection won “Best in Show” in Extracts at the NY International Gift Fair in January 2009. Each hand poured candle is made with organic apricot wax pioneered by Volupsa. Scents: Chef’s Special, California Citrus, Herb Garden, Sommelier, Spice Market, and Vintage.

Also, new from VOLUSPA: Seasons candles in Orange Bloom, Fleur de Fete, Japanese Plum, Panjore Lychee, French Bourbon Vanilla, and Soleil. Very vibrant!

SCHOTT-ZWIESEL: Enticingly beautiful, yet extremely resilient TritanĀ®-Crystal glass, our stemware line of choice! New lines: FINE, FORTISSIMO, & CRU CLASSICO. A thought for a nice Father’s Day gift too.

VINO:

Reds – Permutations Pinot Noir, Ventisquero Carmenere, Stratton Lummis Cabernet, Chateau Trocard Bordeaux, Planeta Vittoria & Syrah, Maquis Lien Chilean Blend, and a phenomenal Cru Beaujolais: Domaine Diochon…plus many more!

Dry Whites: A-Z Dry Riesling, Bethel Heights Chardonnay, Baileyana Chardonnay, Spot-on Pinot Blanc, Yali Sauvignon Blanc (back by popular demand from last spring), Apaltagna Chardonnay, Huber Gruner Veltliner (my personal new porch sipping favorite), Penalolen Sauvignon Blanc, and Ipsum Spanish Blend…and so on…

Rose’s: Pares Blata Spanish Blend, and ooohhhweeee: A to Z Rose which is all Sangiovese grapes is OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!!

Sweets: Spring Fling Moscato, Kissel Riesling Spatlese, Malamaya Viognier “Port”, August Hill Raspberry Infusion, Planeta Moscato di noto: I’m just going to say that this has got to be one of THE BEST little dessert wines I have EVER tasted!!! No foolin.

On the way: New foodies from Rothschild Farms, Wind & Willow, a new Tuscan chocolate line: Amedei and much more…

Find us on Facebook at “Will Work for Wine at A. Renee”…shirts coming soon!

Cheers!

Amy
