“This store has a great selection of beers. The liquor and wine selection is great too. You can pretty much find whatever your looking for and maybe something new if your feeling adventurous.” – Patrick from Chicago
“This place has everything I like, suitable for many price ranges! They get in beers that are hard to find. I was really impressed when I wanted PumKing beer, and they offered to call me when it actually came in, and reserve me some bottles until I was able to stop by— and they actually followed through on that!” – Susanne from LaGrange

Nothing says it’s a celebration like Champagne. Since the discovery of Méthod Champenoise, or the Champagne method, it’s grown to become the premier sparkling wine. Champagne isn’t all expensive.

Gourmet bites will be served! Arrive early as this is one of our busiest tastings! $10 pp members/$20 pp non-members. Registration is not required. 2-6 pm
Sparkling wine made in Champagne is the only wine that can be designated as such, people from Champagne are very proud of their region and know their terroir, the soil is very rich in limestone and imparts flavors in their wines like no where else in the world.
We save Champagne for only special occasions but what is life if not special. Champagne should be drunk at least once a week to celebrate life, not just for special milestones in peoples’ lives. Many affordable sparkling wines and champagnes can turn a day-to-day moment into an extraordinary one! The three most influential women winemakers include, Veuve-Clicquot Ponsardin, Louis Pommery, and Lily Bollinger. Maybe they understood this more than anyone. They followed their passion and produced a magnificent product!
Some of these fine champagnes are available this holiday season and as a suggestion, these are ones that will not disappoint! Try to find, of course the three ladies that I mentioned – Veuve Clicquot Yellow Brut, Pommery Brut, and Bollinger – but try something new every time the opportunity arises.
My only regret is that I did not drink more Champagne. -Lord Maynard Keynes, on his deathbed
When wine is involved, nothing is difficult. Cheers! Nancy
