Weekly Specials! 11/17/2025
White Wine of the Week
Cave de Lugny
La Côte Blanche
Mâcon-Villages
Normally $19.99 /
Now on Sale for $15.96
100% Chardonnay (Mâcon-Villages AOC)
How It’s Made:
A cooperative of over 250 wine-growing estates within the AOC Burgundy-Maconnais, Cave de Lugny exercises full control over their grapes, unlike négociant cooperatives who buy from multiple growers. Pulling Chardonnay grown sustainably in limestone rich soil, they make this Mâcon-Villages white without oak, aging the wine on its lees.
Why We Like It:
La Côte Blanche is an exercise in balance. There’s enough of a fragrant fruit to keep it from being crisp, but then there’s a touch of acid, enough to give it structure. It’s a great white for salads and cheese.
Red Wine of the Week
Andeluna
Raices Malbec
Normally $18.99 /
Now on Sale for $14.96
100% Malbec (Mednoza GI)
How It’s Made:
Andeluna has this to say about their Raices (“Roots”) line. “Our roots are our great base, capitalized by inheritance and history and will remain within our earthly heart throughout our existence, just as it happens to vines.” They grow the grapes for this wine 2600 feet above sea level in rocky, sandy, and calcareous soil.
Why We Like It:
Andeluna’s name is a portmanteau of the moon (luna) and the Andes Mountains, as they are all in on being a winery that makes “mountain wines.” You can taste the effect here, as high elevations can produce fully ripened grapes with significant acidity. Thus, this wine gives you the plummy fruit that you want with a Malbec, balanced with crisp tannins and acid, making this wine a surprisingly bright red.
Beer of the Week
Big Truck
Halfcab Hazy IPA
Normally $12.99 /
Now on Sale for $11.96 (12 oz can six-pack)
New England-Style IPA (6.0% ABV)
How It’s Made:
Yeah, that’s right. The name of this brewery is Big Truck Farm Brewery. You want to snicker about it, you can go up to the veterans that run the place on their farm in Parkton, MD, where they grow most, if not all, the ingredients for their beers. (Let us know how that works out. We ain’t touching that.) They make this NEIPA from their own Cascade, Mosaic, and Centennial hops.
Why We Like It:
This beer is so freakin’ sharp! It’s like a (non-Zen) hand clap where one hand is fruit notes from the Mosaic hops and the other is citrus from the Cascade and Centennial hops. They just meld together into a solid, off-dry, tasty treat that we just want to applaud.
