UPCOMING! Champagne & Chateauneuf Tasting Why have just one when you can taste a lineup of two of France's most famous wine styles? Francois Roumieux from Chateauneuf-du-Pape's Clos du Calvaire estate and Champagne Eric Taillet will join us next Tuesday, March 19 for a happy hour and tasting of two style leaders of their respective appellations. The duo of respected winemakers will be on hand to present and discuss their current releases alongside an exclusive offer of some prized back vintages from each estate for attendees. These two are unalike as individuals, but both are neoterics in their regions. Françoise is the President of Femmes Vignes Rhone, promoting female winemakers in the Rhone, and Éric is the founder of the Meunier Institute, dedicating himself to the promotion of Pinot Meunier. See you all soon!

Come visit us for all your cold weather wine essentials - because cuddling up on the couch or in front of the fire is so much better with a glass of red wine! #redwine #pinotnoir #syrah #cabernetsauvignon #frenchwine #australianwine #bordeaux #burgundy #redburgundy #aocselections #shiraz

Think Beaujolais is just for chuggable, nouveau style wines? Think again! Just in time for Thanksgiving, we've collected every major wine from all four of the infamous Gang of Four and more of the best wines made in this oft-overlooked region. We'll go deep into the best Beaujolais in the world and discuss classic producers, styles, history, and what is driving the contemporary winemaking environment in the region. Join us for an exceptional night of some of the world's best Beujolais bottlings. Purchase tickets at link in bio. . . . . . . #wine #vino #beaujolais #gamay #beaujolaismasterclass #redwine #wineeducation #tastewine

A little sneak peak of some of our Saturday snacks that we will be pouring this weekend! Raisins Gaulois is made by Beaujolais legend Marcel Lapierre and is, in his own words, “It’s a wine… that you drink like a beer… when you don’t really want to drink a beer.” In other words, a perfect, quaffable fall red that is great for thanksgiving! We also have a Beaujolais blanc, a style of wine that is exceedingly rare and made from 100% Chardonnay. Stop by and visit @kellyeatshouston and @megvantil at AOC between 11 am and 3 pm to shop for wine for thanksgiving, pick up a previously placed order, and taste something delicious! 🍷🥂🍁🍂 . . . . . #wine #wineshop #houston #tasting #winetasting #fall #thanksgivingwine #tastewine #learnwine #buywine #chardonnay #gamay
