Hey Friends!

After more than TEN years, we’ve made the decision to step away from the wine business.

Whether you're a longtime customer or have still been meaning to visit, now is the perfect time to stop in and stock up!

We’ll be open the following Saturdays from 2-6pm:
August 22 and 29
September 5 and 19
October 3 and 10

We’ll have the shop open with great discounts on remaining inventory - some limited quantities so don’t wait!

Thank you for your support, friendship, and loyalty over the years. We couldn't have done it without you, and we'd love to see you one more time before we close this chapter.

Cheers!
The Gables
