For dinner, I had the Frontenac Gris Reuben, the bread was perfectly toasted, the cheese and corned beef melts in your mouth! My husband had the Roasted Garlic Marquette Chicken Wrap, chicken grilled on point with bacon, lettuce, tomatoes, Caramelized onions and a garlic-Marquette aioli sauce, it was a mouth water wrap. All sandwiches served with kettle chips and a large pickle. Come stop in any of our locations to enjoy a tasting, stay for a glass of wine and go home with your own bottle!

Wine and brownies

We all love wine... Well not only drinking wine, but you can cook with it in so many ways. I decided to add our Razzle Dazzle wine in lieu of water in my brownie mix. My milk chocolate brownies now have a fresh raspberry flavor all because of 1/4 cup of wine added. I followed the directions as the package described except no water, add wine. They cooked just the same, just taste better! Husband and kids tested and loved! Serve with ice cream or a drizzle of chocolate syrup and you have a delicious dessert.
