Along with the Art we are also going to be doing a Stock your Cellar event.  This is a special event in which our wine distributor, Young's Market, is going to come out and taste some exceptional wines.  As part of the promotion we are going to offer case sales at 10% markup on cost to be delivered to Uptown Market.

Dion Winery has also elected to participate in this event and will be here to taste their Pinot Noir selection.  Dion Winery is a local winery that is self distributed locally and made locally.

David HIll Winery will also be present to taste some of their great wines.

This event is going to be a great chance to see some wonderful exciting art as well as taste some great wine.  Join us Thursday, March 1, 2012 for this event.  Scheduled to start at 6:00 pm.
