Solo Vino Wines

We’d like you all to meet the newest member of the team: MOGI!! 🐶

He doesn’t have an apron yet, but Mogi will be around the shop a few days a week so don’t forget to stop by and say hi.

And because we KNOW you’ll want to see his adorable puppy face, Mogi will be making more frequent appearances on our account. 🥹

Welcome to the team little guy!

Sean La Bonty of Lopian Wines will be pouring tonight starting at 5pm!! Here’s our lineup:

We start with Marotti Campi brut rose. Wine comes from Moro d’Alba on the Adriatic coast.

Miley Le Cloche is a delightful Côtes de Gascogne white from SW France. Famous (at this shop anyway) for its effortless solving of summer’s heat and humidity. Colombard and Ugni Blanc, two simple grapes more famous for cognac production.

Chateau Hellha Fermint Sec is from Hungry, using that country’s most famous grape, Fermint which is notoriously famous for its being made into an unctuous dessert style wine (Tokaji) but this is crisp, dry and fruity/spicy.

Parajes rose comes from southern Spain, made from a grape called Bobal. Dry and refreshing.

Finally Chateau Manissy Lirac is from the Rhône valley, Lirac being one of those villages elevated from Côtes du Rhône status to being allowed to put its name on the label. Grenache and Syrah. Dependable.

Don’t miss it! Tastings are free and go till 7:30pm.

Katie is here tonight from 5-7:30. Tasting the lineup of rum from Maggie’s Farm!!

1st Thursdays with Katie

Maggie’s Farm Rum!! 5-7:30 Thursday (8/1)

You have less than two hours to get your wine-loving-selves into the shop. Here’s our lineup for tonight!

Queen of the Sierra white is a somewhat, lightly filtered funky blend of Riesling, Chardonnay and Verdejo 😎

The Teutonic rose of Pinot Noir is a favorite each season, with a little wildness to it 😜

Boxie is a 3 liter box of orange wine made from skin-contact Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Riesling and Albariño 📦 🍷

The first red is a Bugey (region in France) Mondeuse, medium bodied earthy and juicy wine that is chillable 🌏🍷😎

And finally, Regenerator is a lighter bodied Zinfandel with a savory edge. Again chillable. 😬

See you from 5-7:30pm, tastings are free!

Here is our Friday lineup
✨Warren G is pouring ✨

Aupa white is a perfect picnic wine, light and lively Torrontes blended with a bit more bodilicious grape called Pedro Ximenez

Los Condejos Malditos is a rose with a touch of wild funkiness and it doesn’t love rabbits

LEOS is a classic dry rose from southern France made up of Grenache, Bourboulenc and Vermentino.

Forte do Cego is a Vinho Verde rose from Portugal

Pais Viejo is from Chile, a very old grape brought by the Spanish, not heavy. Another good picnic wine

The Valisto Extremo is a Tannat, that’s a very dark grape that has made a New World splash.

It’s the 5th of July and probably a slow day so y’all come on out to make our day!
