The chatter of people, live music, and mismatched furniture all evoke a feeling of comfort. I ordered the Sauvignon Blanc and was given a complimentary cup of delicious popcorn.

If you have never been to Montrose, think of a cute small town with lots of Mom and Pop businesses…read moreand charm to match. Montrose has long been a wonderful destination for shopping and this was their first ever Wine Walk! I really love walking around Montrose with a beer in my hand during their famous Oktoberfest so when the Wine Walk folks offered me a free ticket to a Wine Walk of course I said hell ya! Grab a glass, walk down Honolulu and sip away! The Wine Walk was a wonderful event including very generous pours of amazing wines including Fess Parker and Mumms. Each ticket entitles its owner to 15 one ounce pours which is actually quite a lot. I could only use half of mine ! It's also a super way to find out about new businesses in the area. For example, I had no idea that Casa Cordova has a gift shop! And it's lovely. While this is the inaugural Montrose Wine Walk, I certainly hope they have another one because it was really fun and a super idea.

There were 31 pouring stations throughout the Montrose Shopping Park. There were some appetizers, which was a nice treat to go with the wine tastings. Thanks to this event, I walked into shops that I never knew existed! Casa Cordoba had some eats. Montrose Candy gave out some samples of candy. I also got a certificate for $10!! We used it to get something to eat. TY also for the shopping bag. Some were lucky to get a free wine glass. LUCKY!! Plenty of free parking. Looking forward to attending again.

One day years ago, one of the employees recognized me from years past. His name is Steve. This not only goes out to Steve, but it goes out to the entire staff on the floor. Shout out to the two gentlemen in the wine section. Outstanding service at Mission Wine & Spirits in Pasadena. I've known Steve for years, and he consistently goes above and beyond. I honestly thought that " they" the sales people that were somehow on commission. A couple of days ago Steve personally texted me when a new wine arrived that he knew I'd love. That kind of proactive, thoughtful service is rare. Great selection, even better people. Just a great experience all around. It was a $200 buy that I wasn't expecting to make. Best and good luck.

This Thanksgiving week reminded me why I love Mission Wines, Chris, and the staff-- I was in a hurry and so I bought wine at Bristol Farms. It was a winery I'd bought before, I looked at the online ratings for the wine and seemed solid Got it home and meh. I said to myself -- next time I'm just letting Chris and his team pick my wines that way no mistakes or off years for me. With so many wineries -- no way I can keep up. Missions Wines is like a sommelier shop on that there is something excellent at each price point -- bottles under $20 will be terrific. And gift bottles will be special They are no adding high end spirits -- I bought a special Armenian brandy there for a friend that I could not find anywhere else Trust them to pick your wine unless you're an expert and your friends and family will think you've got the best taste ever!

They recently opened a tasting room in Highland Park, so I stopped in to check it out. The tasting room is quaint & cozy. They offer three curated tastings: Monthly special ($27), Reserve ($40) or Library ($20) or you can order by the glass. I selected the Library Tasting. I'll be honest, I'm not a huge fan of reds but these were excellent. My tasting consisted of a Grenache (2017), a Syrah (2017), Alicante Bouschet (2017), & Evenfall (2016). Each one was well balanced, the notes were lovely, and the finish was smooth. During my tasting I had a wonderful conversation with Al & Mark. Al recently started working here, and she has amazing energy. Mark is also very personable and enthusiastic about his wine. He let me try some of the Anonymous, which is a secret blend and listed as "Origin & Vintage Unknown." It was fantastic! After trying Byron Blatty Wines, I'm now a fan of reds. I even bought a bottle to take home. I will most definitely be back to enjoy more of these delicious wines and an enjoyable conversation with Al.
