December Specials and a Special Clearance Sale!
Firstly, I am sorry the newsletter is coming out late this month, we’ve been very busy. I was also waiting for some BIG news from our supplier. A large wine-on-premise chain on the west coast has closed. That chain had many 2020 RQ (Restricted Quantity) still under order. Due to this closure our supplier, RJS Spagnols, has made these wines available to us for a special price. Until they are sold out, (hurry they will go quick) the folowing wines are $40.00 off their list price;
