Half Bottles and MagnumsHalf Bottles, Magnums & More
Sometimes size does matter. This section offers our diners enjoyable alternatives with a selection of half bottles and big bottles to customize their food and wine experience. Half bottles can be the solution to the perennial question “red or white?” or a chance to sample a glass (or two) of a fine bottling with a specific menu item.

Our super-sized bottles are a festive way to serve a special wine to larger groups of wine lovers. A “magnum” is a 1.5 liter bottle, or the equivalent of two regular-sized bottles.

20/20

20-20The secret to putting together our most recent addition to our wine list was to find what current publications are calling “Value Wines”. The grapes are often not recognized or fashionable and many are hard to pronounce.
These selections are from the major wine-producing regions of the world and many are available only in limited quantities. Look for interesting varietals like Monastrell or the Berger Gruner Veltliner. We couldn’t think of a better way to showcase these unique wines and let the adventurer in you take over. Simply, 20/20 refers to the number of choices that we offer in this section and each bottle is $20. This list will no doubt change frequently as there are many great values yet to be explored…
