favorite spots. With the current state of the supply chain this is extremely relevant.
Lemay notes, “it is hard to keep interest when certain wines are hard to keep in stock.

we’ll have more next year.’”

Yes, our jobs are fun and we do get to experience a world that is exciting and
interesting but we are also business women who are creating a collection we want to pass
on to our guests. It is a pretty awesome job! As Jenny concluded “ we sacrifice ourselves

What can I say, I love Syrah. Especially
when it’s from France, or California. There are
a few things I always look for when selecting
a syrah for 3 Parks. I typically gravitate to
