Owners Chuck and Robbie Warinner have been holding the wine tasting events for a while, but as more and more people hear about the delicious occasions - either by word of mouth or from informative newsletters or Internet promotions - the more populated the palate-pleasing soirees are becoming.

And there will be a few more formal wine-tasting events before the end of the year; there are also “informal” wine tastings from noon to 3 p.m. every Saturday where patrons are introduced to featured wines to try.

"You can try all the wines for one low price, and then choose a glass or your favorite to enjoy with your lunch,” ownership said.

As with all formal wine tastings, people can sit outside in the nice weather with family and friends, try various wines from an eclectic selection of a featured distributer all the while being educated by a knowledgeable connoisseur in the process of making the wine, how it should be drank, what to eat with the wine and how to care for it.

The tastings usually last a couple hours, where people can dine and enjoy conversation with each other all the while being served new wine after new wine.
