After all the preparation and excitement, last Friday night we celebrated the blue moon with our “Wine and Unwind” event. We had so much fun seeing all of our loyal customers and meeting so many new ones! We had a great turn out!

Chase the Taste wowed the crowd with his much anticipated hors d’oeuvres.
