We’ll be starting folks off at the first of the three tables in groups of 10 and then allowing you to move from one to the next over a half-hour or so. If we get a bit of a crowd going, we hope you’ll be willing to wait a few minutes as necessary before starting your tasting adventure. Join us and get ready to spritz all summer long!
