Bordeaux News
Fan of Bordeaux? Well, we’ve got some good news for you! A new shipment of over 50 cases of great Bordeaux just arrived at our wine shop including the heralded 2019 vintage. With its diverse, high-quality terroirs, Bordeaux is a region that yields a broad range of wines, from outstanding collectible bottles to everyday drinking wines. Come in and take a gander, fill up the cellar, or just take a bottle home for dinner. Also, don’t forget about our 10% off Case Discount when you purchase 12 or more bottle!

Intro to Emilio
For those of you who have yet to take a class with Emilio Guerra, what are you waiting for?! Our beloved wine teacher is currently an adjunct professor at the University of South Carolina teaching Wine & Spirits while working at TGS in his spare time. He is WSET Level 3 Advanced with an Advanced Sommelier Certification so he really knows his stuff. Guerra transports his students to another world with every class thanks to his enthusiasm, passion and flair for storytelling (and wine!). By using real-world knowledge and a down-to-earth approach, Emilio teaches his classes with an engaging and fun atmosphere not often found in high-end wine classes.
