What will you be drinking New Year’s Eve?
Despite its lack of originality for the day, I will certainly be drinking bubbly on New Year’s Eve. I just can’t imagine toasting the New Year with anything fizzless. BUT, within the grand category of sparkling wine, there are many options that certainly do not lack originality. Read the rest of this entry »
A note on holiday hours….
Just to keep you on the up and up and IN wine!
LUSH will be open for normal hours on NEW YEAR’S EVE, Wednesday, December 31st. Just a reminder…that is NOON until 10pm.
LUSH will be closed all day on NEW YEAR’S DAY, Thursday, January 1st. (TOAST the transition, the wishes, hopes, resolutions…and damn good bubbly!)
Our fist SUNDAYS with LUSH tasting in 2009 will be a Bloody Mary extravaganza…nutritious, delicious, and a beautiful way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Sunday, January 4th…2-5pm.

LUSH website is now live!
Check it out! We will be pulling together a super fantastic, functional, informative, and irreverent interactive experience with LUSH online. Chip Russell of Distortion Designs is the master webdesigner behind the project. Check back often as we progress toward a fully outfitted website…sign up for the School of Lush, coordinate events, a comprehensive listing of up to date inventory, a beer geeky page, a wine geeky page, and a tasting schedule…and lots of fun. I expect it to be gorgeous and user friendly as well…like being in LUSH, but on your computer at home!
Cheers!
