We just returned home from an incredible family trip to breathtaking France. More to come with pictures and posts about our time there and the wine tastings we had along the way. While we were in the middle of our travels we were honored to be featured on the front page of our local paper, […]
After years of requests from our customers and friends for a “public” space to enjoy our offerings we’re thrilled to be opening one! The tasting room will be located inside of Corrick’s – we are converting a large portion of their space into our tasting room – just adjacent to their Art Trails gallery focused on local artists. We too will be featuring the many talented local artists in our space. Together we will celebrate the relationship between Art and Wine. Read the article here.
We look forward to seeing you all in person at the new tasting room – stay tuned for the official opening date coming soon.
Ancient Oak Cellars, and Jon McDaniel with Second City Soil, gathered 60+ of the top sommeliers from around the country to taste four wines that Ancient Oak had sent to each -- and to enter into a discussion of the wines, farming and winemaking philosophies, and a wide-range of other related topics. We had a blast!
Re-live your experience, or take it in for the first time. Then be in touch to continue the discussions. Cheers!
