Stepping into the breathtaking world of Castello del Trebbio felt like stepping back in time. 🍷🏰

Nestled in the hills of Tuscany, this historic castle and winery gave us the chance to experience not only incredible wines, but centuries of history, tradition, and passion for the land. From wandering through the medieval cellars to learning about the castle’s connection to the famous Pazzi family, every corner told a story.

Of course, the wine was unforgettable — beautiful expressions of Chianti Rufina, crafted with a deep respect for both tradition and innovation. Sipping wine overlooking the Tuscan countryside? Truly one of those “pinch me” moments. 🍇✨

Experiences like this remind us why we love wine so much — it’s not just what’s in the glass, it’s the people, the history, the place, and the stories behind every bottle.
Tuscany, you have our hearts. ❤️🇮🇹

Two very special April birthdays deserve a big CHEERS 🥂

Join us in celebrating:
🍷 Eric – our incredible Sommelier and Wine Guy at Corks & Conversations
🍷 Joyce – wine connoisseur, amazing canasta player, and proud mom of Gary (owner of Hidden Harbor Wine Library)

Eric brings knowledge, curiosity, and a down-to-earth approach that makes wine feel approachable, fun, and never intimidating. He loves helping guests discover new favorites and feel confident exploring wine.

Joyce is truly one of the greats — a passionate wine lover, competitive (and very talented!) canasta player, and a wonderful part of the Hidden Harbor Wine Library family.

If you would like to give Joyce a birthday cheer .... join us April 25th at the Library!

We are so lucky to share this community with both of you and grateful for the joy, conversation, and connection you bring to every gathering.

Help us wish them both a very Happy Birthday! 🎂🍷
