The Bacchus Busters Jan 17 at Pour Richard's

Bacchus Busters Jan 17 at Pour Richard's

January is all about winter wines. Deeper textures, richer aromatics, and bottles made for slow evenings and hearty meals.

This Bacchus Buster is designed for stocking your cellar with exceptional values, undiscovered producers, and new cold-weather favorites you’ll reach for all season long.

Think structured reds, layered whites, and wines that shine when the temperature drops.

Join us for an afternoon of thoughtful tasting and refined winter selections.

January Bacchus Buster = Saturday 1/17 | 1–4 PM
