He's a little bit country. He's a little bit rock 'n roll! More specifically, "progressive modern rock and alternative country." The result is a "bluesy-folksy, roots-rockish, guitar-centric sound." Everyone who hears Chuck falls in love with his laid back style. His music has a way of making you feel like all is right with the world.

Don't miss him on Friday night from 7:00-10:00 pm at The City Wine Sellar. Deli fare served until 9:00 pm. Non-smoking inside venue.

The No-Cork Wine Tasting at The City Wine Sellar -- March 5, 2008

The No-Cork Wine Tasting at The City Wine Sellar -- March 5, 2008
Host: Debbie Malenfant
Location: City Wine Sellar
102 Water Street, Elizabeth City, NC 27909 US
When: Wednesday, March 5, 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm
Phone: 252-335-1163

Remember Boone's Farm wine? What do you remember most about it? How "economical" it was; that you could find it at some of the very best gas stations in town; or those fancy screw caps that required no cork screw (which was a good thing, 'cause at that age, who really knew how to use one anyway)?

Strawberry Hill aside, I bring up Boone's Farm because I want to point out the fact that our psyche many times makes the automatic linkage between screw caps and cheap (i.e., bad) wine. We need to overcome this mental hurdle. 95% of wines purchased are consumed within 24 hours. So, the argument that corks are necessary for proper aging isn't a convincing one.

At our March wine tasting, we will try to help you conquer your fear of screw cap wine by offering a selection of quality "non-corked" wines. No Boone's Farm allowed.

Our Guest Pourer will be Jamie Koch, Membership Director of the YMCA. $10.00 per person. Light appetizers served. RSVP Requested, please.
