Image: www.evswines.com/images/index1.jpg
This charming little wine shop on 15th Ave East is often staffed by poet and wine aficionado Doug Nufer, who is more than happy to fill your request for a good, local bottle of something delicious for under for $15. And he'll be straight with you about what's worth a few extra few bucks, and what's not.
On Saturday, this Capitol Hill bottle store (two doors down from the North Hill Bakery) is holding an informal tasting from 2-4 p.m, to help you plan your Turkey Day drinking menu. The free tasting features both local finds, as well one Pinot from Alsace.
