What

We're Reading

Here are a few of the recent books and the wines which accompanied them:

Who Is Very Kelly?

By Rosalie Knecht

Andeluna Torrontes and Andeluna Raices Malbec

About half of the book took place in Argentina, so it seemed fitting to choose wines from Argentina.

Adventures on the Wine Route

By Kermit Lynch

Cotes du Rhone and Muscadet, both imported by Kermit Lynch

This was a fun and informative/evocative memoir by the renowned importer, Kermit Lynch, so we wanted French wines imported by him, of course.

Lover of Chenin Blanc and Spanish reds. Mom to two energetic boys. Runner.

Many things brought me here, to this very different place than the world I inhabited in corporate America, but after spending a lot of my free time reading about wine and trying different wines, I knew I wanted to spend some of my career in the wine world. And now I’m pleased as (spiked) punch to be inhabiting that world at Murphy’s. When I’m not at the shop, I’m helping Chad wrangle our kids, trying to squeeze in a run, or popping into the other businesses downtown. I love talking with folks at the shop, so stop on in.
