We are kicking off 2023 with a special wine tasting event that you don't want to miss. Camilla is heading into our "wine cellar" and revisiting our vast collection of wines. She will revive, rejuvenate and reintroduce some oldies but goodies in a variety of price ranges. A true wine connoisseur, Camilla will share her passion and knowledge about wine, and anyone that knows Camilla can attest to her expertise when it comes to which foods pair best with particular wines. Join us in New Bern on Friday, January 20th from 5-7pm and in Oriental on Saturday, January 21st from 2-4pm.
This month we feature two South African wines both created by winemaker and viticulturist Johan Viljoen; Anno 1693 and 'The Coat' (each bottle of 'The Coat' has been personally autographed by Johan). Keep scrolling for more information and then stop on in for a bottle (or two) and taste for yourself why these are this month's "showcase" wines.

Next weekend we welcome back Chris Izzo who will share six wines with us that all have a "French Connection". While some connections may be obvious, there are others that are not, and Chris will make those connections for us. Chris has been tasting with us for the past few years first, as part of Johnson Brothers / Mutual Distributing, and then recently he joined Epiphany (sister company of Johnson Brothers / Mutual). This will be Chris' last tasting with us as he transitions back to Mutual as a Sales Manager in their Raleigh region. Stop by and wish Chris well, or if you have yet to meet him, now is your chance! Chris is a wealth of information...
Next weekend, November 4th and 5th, you are invited to a very special wine tasting event. This is a "bonus" wine tasting for us and one that you are not going to want to miss as we welcome back our beloved friend Andy Woolgar of Elephants Corner Wines and very special guest, all the way from South Africa, wine maker Wynand Grobler of De Kleine Wijn Koop. If you are a Nautical Wheelers "regular" you may have had the pleasure of tasting South African wines with Andy over the past few years. Andy has introduced us to many of Wynand's wonderful wines like Kreatuur, Klipkers and Ou Treffer (just to name a few), and next weekend, you will be delighted...
