Friday Night Movie tomorrow! – Casablanca

Play it once, Sam. For old times’ sake.

The quintessential romance, Casablanca, will be playing this Friday on our big screen!

In World War II Casablanca, Rick Blaine, exiled American and former freedom fighter, runs the most popular nightspot in town. The cynical lone wolf Blaine comes into the possession of two valuable letters of transit. When Nazi Major Strasser arrives in Casablanca, the sycophantic police Captain Renault does what he can to please him, including detaining a Czechoslovak underground leader Victor Laszlo. Much to Rick’s surprise, Lazslo arrives with Ilsa, Rick’s one time love. Rick is very bitter towards Ilsa, who ran out on him in Paris, but when he learns she had good reason to, they plan to run off together again using the letters of transit. Well, that was their original plan…. – IMDB

Pearl is back!!!

After a long absence, our precious Pearl has returned. This sweet white wine is made from the fruity Niagara grape and has been very popular with the “middle of the road” crowd. Pearl makes a perfect pairing with pork dishes and is the perfect end to a long, hot day. Come by soon and get yourself a bottle or two!

Spring Update!

Well, a month of 80 degree weather has gotten our vineyard off to an early start. Unfortunately, the 27 degree cold snap that rolled through last night was not kind to our eager vines. This year’s crop has no doubt been affected but the damage could have been worse. At least it wasn’t like 2007 when a late frost killed all of our vines.

In other news, the Spring Cooking class on April 29th is filling up. If you would like to come and learn a few new Spring dishes, call and reserve your spot! The class is free!

The Blues & Wine schedule is finally up. We will be kicking off the season on June 2nd with Chicago Charlie & The Businessmen. The show starts at 6pm and goes until 9pm. Food and wine will be available for purchase!

We are also happy to announce a new event that we will be running this Summer…Friday Night Movie Nights! Starting June 1st, we will be showing a classic movie every Friday night beginning at dusk.

Come on out and see us! Happy Spring!
