Introducing our new Happy Hour Red, the Barbera D'Alba! 🍷

Curious about it? See notes from our resident SommOWLier, 🦉 🥂

CASTELLO DI NEIVE - BARBERA D’ALBA

"A classic Italian red from one of its most acclaimed regions (Piemonte), Barbera is bold, dry, and full of complexity with deep red fruit flavors, warm spice, and subtle florals. A perfect pick for the transition into early autumn weather, and especially great pairing with our Meatballs and Combo Charcuterie!"

Come by and have a glass with us! 🍷 Happy Hour is Monday-Thursday, 4:30-6:39pm!

some days, you just need a little pick me up. but some days, you don't want something with as high an ABV as your typical Espresso Martini. That is where this beauty comes into play ☕️ 💚

Introducing: The Jitterbug ☕️ featuring the deep, rich flavors of espresso, sweet vermouth, and a touch of Fernet Branca. All of the punch of an Espresso Martini, with the beautiful, fresh flavors of mint and a robust sweet vermouth. Lower ABV, but still has all the beautiful flavor of a drink from our "Medicine Cabinet." It'll have you jumping! 😊

Let's get jittery!! 🦉🥂

This is a NY heatwave you will NEVER want to pass! 😈 🍹 come by and try it out for yourself!
