We’re back with another dinner At Our Table!
Thursday, October 3rd

Our next gathering has a nod to where our co-founder grew up - Virginia. We’re taking a modern yet authentic approach to local styles and ingredients.

This dinner features the work of Chef Rachael Harris, from Staunton, VA. Her ethos revolves around building community, fostering connections, and utilizing honest, local ingredients. Her culinary influences range from Mediterranean to traditional Appalachian fare—creating menus that are often as authentically Virginian as it gets.

The menu is giving Autumn in Shenandoah. Four courses of seasonal ingredients, paired with wines from Commonwealth Crush, our favorite VA custom crush facility built with small producers in mind.

This event also acknowledges & celebrates the contributions of women and members of the LGBTQIA+ community, who are often overlooked and under-appreciated. To further support the community, proceeds from this dinner will go to Co-Fermented, an organization dedicated to creating awareness and facilitating representation within the wine industry.

Check out the details on our website and get your tix soon - this one will definitely sell out.

Thursday, October 3rd, 6:30pm
Price: $150 + tax (purchase on our site - link in bio)
Location: outdoors at a private residence in NE DC

🚨✨FLASH SALE ✨🚨

We’re offering our Skin Contact 3-pack for $50 + the cost of delivery/shipping! Hit our bio for the link.

What’s “skin contact” 🤔

Skin contact wine is often called Orange wine. First and foremost, no oranges were harmed in the making of this wine!
When the juice from a white wine grape gets to hang out with the skins a bit longer than usual, it creates this harmonious blend of bold flavors, complex aromas, and bright & sunny orange hues. Perfect for summer sipping.

Have you tried orange wine before?

The month of July took our wine club members on a much needed vacation, enjoying the sun-drenched vineyards of Italy, the country side areas of Spain and the beautiful picturesque chateaus of France-all within each sip! Let’s get into what our members enjoyed

**Château Routas RosÊ, 2023** Provence, France
This region has been producing wine for over 2600 years, and rosĂŠ accounts for over 85% of wine production. Chateau Routas created a rosĂŠ that embodies the flavors, aromas and overall feeling of what wine enthusiasts love from the pale pink treat.

**Isola Del Satiro Rosso 2021** Sicily, Italy
Made using two native grapes, a blend of Nero d’Avola and Perricone, the vibrant flavors and bold aromas reflect the rich history and passionate spirit of the region.

*Bodegas Bhilar “Lágrimas de Bhilar” Garnacha 2022** Navarra, Spain
This wine is rich, and youthful—fruity notes of ripe berries and spices, allowing you to experience what a visit is like in Navarra.

And for the Home Decor item:
This set of perfectly pink stemless glasses is just what you need for your next cocktail party or to make your dessert that much more beautiful. A very sophisticated look to hold your favorite cocktail 🍸 cheers!

Wow, June flew by in the blink of an eye! We are excited for July and all the fun times ahead, especially with our wine club picks - Euro vaca anyone? Cheers to a great summer! LETS get into what our June wine club members enjoyed

(We gave our members exciting ways to enjoy wine - by the can, a 1 Liter bottle and a Cider)

**Maker Wine 3- Pack Varietal**
Discover the Maker Wine 3-pack: Sparkling Sauvignon Blanc, RosĂŠ, and a Chillable Red. Crafted by winemakers who prioritize sustainability and exceptional quality, these wines offer the perfect blend of eco-consciousness and taste. Enjoy killer wines that are good for the planet - both inside and out

**Weingut Oppenauer, 2022**
This exceptional wine is showcased in a 1 Liter bottle, perfect wine to take to dinner with friends. The Oppenauer family is serious about viticulture and ecology, from making their own compost to the grapeseed oil that they’ve been producing since 2010.

**Cidre Intrus, ‘Caché au Grand Jour’, 2022**
A fun and fresh offering out of Quebec City Canada, this is our first foray into the unique Cider wine creations - and this one does not disappoint. Made using apples and raspberries, Cidre Intrus displays the soft bubbles and subtle fruit. Some say cider is more beer than wine, and while this may be true for some, the Intrus has a character that only the traditional winemaking process can give - acidity, fruit and a delightful fusion of flavors and versatility

And for the Home decor item:
Crafted from the softest 100% organic Turkish cotton, it’s the most versatile textile we’ve ever seen. It’s the perfect addition to any bathroom, beach, or wardrobe. Wrap yourself up in this plush towel and you’ll never want to take it off!

Hi BohĂŞme friends! You are in for an aromatic treat. For the month of May, our Tipsy Club monthly wine subscription is capturing the essence of the Spring season. From the crisp wine notes reminiscent of a blossoming orchard, to the modern picnic tote to host a leisurely day at the park.

**Casa Julia Sauvignon Blanc, 2022**
A beautiful journey through Maule Valley, ChilĂŠ. Bursting with tropical aromas, herbaceous notes, and an enjoyable lengthy finish

**Driopi RosĂŠ, 2022**
A pretty pink-hued rosé made using the Agiorgitiko grape. It’s incredibly fruity—I like to call this a fruit salad in a glass. Aromas of ripe berries and pomegranate offer a fun experience of the most eclectic Greek varietal

**Andeluna Torrontes, 2022**
Argentina offers a sensory experience using the Torrontes grape. Each sip shows off the cool, mountainous region from which the grape is grown. Bursting with floral, peach, and apricot notes and an acidic spark, it’s a great Riesling alternative.

And for the Home Decor item:
Outdoor Picnic Blanket Tote
This machine-washable tote unfolds to become a roomy picnic blanket, then zips right back up into a tote with a built-in pocket. Easy peasy. So grab some friends and find a sunny spot at your closest beach or park!

Introducing our newest addition: At Our Table dinner series

We’re combining our passion for wine & gathering to create a unique experience for connection and community building. Each dinner will feature a creative chef in the DC area and will include wine pairings by yours truly. As with our curated selection of wine & home decor, we’re putting extra effort in showcasing the talents of creators who are of color and identify as women.

Our first dinner will be At Our *Community* Table and take place alfresco at a secret location in Northeast DC on Thursday May 23rd. The multi-course family-style dinner will be led by chef Dionne and feature foods from the African diaspora. Think: oxtail, mackerel, jollof, watermelon pokĂŠ, mango gazpacho.

Dionne has a long-standing, steadfast love for the DC community. She is a health advocate and survivor of gun violence here in DC. She pours into our community by working to feed & take care of our youth and will bring her creativity to our table. To match that passion, our co-owner & sommelier, Monique, has selected 4 wines that will pair perfectly with our meal.

To further support the DC community, a portion of our proceeds will go to whose focus is on changing the norm and narrative of gun violence in communities of color.

Please join us for the first of hopefully many dinners At Our Table.

Details:
🗓️When: Thursday May 23rd at 7pm
📍Where: Secret location in NE DC*

This month, our Tipsy Club has 3 super refreshing wines and an artful planter that’ll get you in the right mind for Spring!

**Wonderwerk x Yuzuco LUV YUZU Lite, 2022**
California (the Yuzu is from Japan)
This (now sold out practically everywhere) bright and fresh bubbly is absolutely “spring in a bottle”. This piquette style wine is a blend of Riesling, Muscat, Pinot Gris, and Yuzu. It’s crisp, sugar free, and low alcohol.

**Domaine Rimbert vin De Table Le Petite Cochon RosÊ, 2022**
Languedoc-Rousillon, France
The wines of Domaine Rimbert are renowned for offering more on the fruit and freshness than spice and power, a balance that winemaker Jean-Marie enjoys. Vibrant pink in the glass with deep scents of ultra-ripe red cherries, guava, g and a smoky note of sweet herbs, and blood orange.

**La Patience Coteaux du Pont du Gard RosÊ, 2022**
Southern France
This vineyard takes its name from a wild, aromatic Mediterranean herb called “la patience” that can be found throughout the vineyards. Breathing life into each vine, this rosé is created using two of the most notable grapes in France—Grenache’s fruit and spiciness and Cinsault’s drinkability—this wine is a natural companion for your porch and picnics.

**Afro-Boho Planter**
This large, hand-painted planter + saucer features a simple brown and white Afro-boho design. This looks great on table tops and shelves, and is footed to avoid slipping or scratching surfaces.

March Tipsy Club is here and it’s all about the ladies! We’re celebrating Women’s History Month by highlighting strong, fearless, woman winemakers and artisans 🥂

**Finca Torremilanos Montecastrillo Tempranillo, 2020**
Ribera del Duero, Spain
 Winemaker Pilar Pérez Albéniz along with her two sons, Ricardo and Vicente, have created the first certified biodynamic winery in the appellation. A deep and vibrant wine with an alluring cardinal color. Exuding earth, fresh flowers, and intensity, the wine is fantastically balanced between its acidity and smooth tannins. Dark fruits, herbal, and minerality all blend and lead to a long beautiful finish.

**Château Haut Lavigne, Côtes de Duras Blanc, 2022**
CĂ´tes de Duras, France
Winemaker Nadia Lusseau’s passion for sustainability and innovation can be found in every bottle she crafts. This Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon blend is created with meticulous care and respect for the land, expressing the true essence of the terroir. Fruit forward with notes of crisp green apple, ripe mango, and a rich medium-bodied texture.

**Château Peybrun, Cadillac Côtes de Bordeaux, 2020**
South West, France
Inheriting the vineyard from her father, Catherine de Loze pours her heart and soul into each bottle. She creates wine that embodies the tradition of old Bordeaux with flavors that reflect the rich terroir of the region. With deep ruby hues and luscious notes of ripe, jammy berries (smells sweet, like a berry crumble), this is a dry, juicy wine—full of red fruits and bright tannins.

**Handmade Glass Votive Holders**
Crafted from hand-blown glass with intricate tamarind leaves embedded along the sides and finished with a hint of golden foil. It adds a touch of elegance to any decor.

Because we’re in the loving & giving spirit of Valentine’s Day, we’re sharing a whole lot of skin contact!

We’re making an exception and offering our February club wines as a special purchase. We selected these beautiful expressions of skin contact (i.e. Orange) wine for this month:

✨Eureka! Wine Co Orange 2022
California
This unique blend of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Ribolla Gialla, and Orange Muscat is sure to shock your senses. Its aromatic nature reminds us of crisp and juicy fresh peeled citrus fruit with a striking twist on the palate.

✨Vina Echeverria No Es Pituko Orange, Sauvignon Blanc 2022
Chile
An exciting expression of this white wine grape, it’s a little smokey, lots of citrus and stone fruits, wrapped in an earthiness crafted by a family winery with innovative wine-making techniques.

✨Kiki and Juan Orange Wine 2021
Spain
 A vibrant orange color and a powerful nose of dried apricot, tangerine, and blood orange layered in honey. It’s grippy and intense and layered.

We’ve done the countdown, ushered in a new year, reflected on the past, and *maybe* made some resolutions. This is the month where many people attempt to curb alcohol consumption, and while that is truly commendable…

Fear not, for our glasses need not be empty - January Tipsy Club is here! 

This month, we’re embracing the charm of dry wines – the unsung heroes of elegance and restraint. In an effort to watch our sugar intake, we can make this dry January fun, tasteful and easy-going with wines that are low or completely void of added sugars. And for our decor item this month, we’re featuring a modern yet rustic addition to your serving tools. We hope you love them all as much as we do. Here are the details:

✨Antech Blanquette de Limoux Brut Nature
Bone-dry, with aromas of citrus & toast and crisp flavors of green and golden apple, grapefruit, lemon, and brioche. Hints of yeast and almond lead into a slightly bitter but refreshing finish.
✨Chateau Des Antonins Bordeaux Blanc 2022
A crisp & fiesty Bordeaux Blanc that’s a crowdpleaser and enjoyable year-round.
✨Mary Taylor Valencay Sophie Siadou 2022
 A bouquet of floral aromas that’s light & fresh with subtle dark berry fruit flavors.
✨Mango Wood Serving Board 
Made of durable and sustainable mango wood, the size and shape are perfect for small gatherings or appetizers.
