FIVE POINTS BOTTLE SHOP

December 3, 2009

Dear FPBS Customer,

We know you are all very busy this time of year so we're going to keep our events to a minimum! As they say "quality" not "quantity" right? In any case we hope you enjoy the two wine tastings we have lined up. In the mean time, don't forget to stop by one of the stores for your holiday party needs! Let one of our knowledgeable employees help you pair the perfect  wine, beer, or cocktail for your next dinner party or holiday event.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM FIVE POINTS BOTTLE SHOP and AROMAS!!

Hope to see you,
Your friends at Five Points Bottle Shop

Thursday December 10th at 5:00pm: Wine Tasting at the Rialto Room

Thursday December 10th at 5:00pm: Wine Tasting at the Rialto Room

The second installment of tastings at the swanky lounge in the basement of the Indigo Hotel! The Rialto Room is actually a PRIVATE CLUB!! In other words, this tasting is a chance to see it without being escorted by a member:) It is gorgeous down there with a beautiful bar, plush couches, and luxurious chairs. The perfect place to relax with a few friends and taste a little wine. The cost is $20 and includes a taste of 6 wines and hors d'oeuvres provided by the club. The tasting will be very casual so feel free to stop in anytime between 5:00 and 7:00pm. See you there.
