Passion Vines Is Turning 14!

Written by Michael Bray, May 17th 2022

In May 2008, Passion Vines was born! Over time, we’ve expanded into an award-winning, full-service liquor store, powered by (remarkable) service. Wine, beer, and spirits are the what behind our operation, but our why is and has always been community. We believe firmly in connection and cultivating meaningful relationships, and we couldn’t have grown and thrived over the last 14 years without our friends in South Jersey and beyond. To anyone who’s ever visited one of our stores or PassionVines.com, attended wine school or a tasting event, entrusted us with providing products and bartenders for your wedding or special event, utilized our corporate gift-giving services, or placed an order for local delivery or shipment somewhere in the country, we thank you for offering us the opportunity to serve you. We are so grateful for your support over the years!

In honor of our 14th anniversary, we've planned a series of special events leading up to Memorial Day. We hope to see you for some (or all!) of our daily celebrations. See below for more information on each event, and for details on which days require advanced reservations.

Rum Reimagined: Phillies Game Night featuring KLYR Rum – Tuesday 5/24, 6:30pm (no reservations required): We are excited to shine the spotlight on KYLR Rum (now the preferred rum of choice for the Philadelphia Phillies!). Our friends from KLYR will be here to share samples of their award-winning spirit, and we’ll be serving some KLYR cocktail specials, as well. We’ll also be watching the Phillies take on the Braves starting at 7:20pm.

Glen Elgin Bottle Share – Wednesday 5/25, 8pm (reservations required): We are fortunate to have received a special release bottle from the Scottish distillery Glen Elgin, and we’ll be sharing it with you during this special anniversary edition of Whiskey Wednesday! Reserve your seat and your share of our bottle of Glen Elgin 18-Year-Old Single Malt Scotch. Our Whiskey Expert Dave Baldwin will facilitate the event and share his insight on Glen Elgin and scotch more broadly. This event is limited to 15 guests. Click here to reserve your seat today!

Brunello Mini Tasting – Thursday 5/26, 6pm (reservations required): Join us for an exclusive tasting experience featuring a wine born the same year as we were: Canalicchio di Sopra Brunello di Montalcino 2008. We will taste this special aged Brunello alongside the 2016 vintage of the same wine from the same producer, to explore how Brunello’s hallmark aromas and flavors unfold over time. This event is limited to 15 guests. Click here to reserve your seat today!

Special Tap List, featuring The Seed – Friday 5/27, 4pm onward (no reservations required): Our friends at The Seed: A Living Beer Project hooked us up with a keg of their delicious Lights Please 6 IPA! The Seed is a craft beer project in Atlantic City, and their beers are typically not available outside of their brewery. We can’t wait to share this exclusive keg with you! We will be tapping some additional fun kegs from other local breweries to complete the day’s tap line-up.

Rare Bourbon Flight – Saturday 5/28, 11am onward (no reservations required): Now’s your chance to taste some of the most difficult-to-find spirits around! Our anniversary celebration bourbon flight will feature a selection of whiskeys from our reserve collection: Blanton’s, Eagle Rare, W.L. Weller C.Y.P.B, and Old Rip Van Winkle 10-Year-Old. Available while supplies last.

Red, White, and Blue Cocktail Menu – Sunday 5/29, 11am onward (no reservations required): Enjoy a spirited selection of Mixologist Megan’s most popular cocktails, including the Blue Dream from our sold-out CBD Cocktails tasting, and the White Cranberry Cosmo!

We are excited to raise a glass with you to celebrate 14 years of Passion Vines, and to toast to the adventures and growth to come.

 

Drink passionately,

Michael
