We’re finally into the MLB Playoffs which not only means the professional baseball season is ending, but also Carpe Vino’s “Chicago Dog” season! Today, especially if you find yourself without power, is a perfect day to come down and have Chicago Dog or two and watch some playoff baseball. Don’t forget the full bar is available and PBR’s are only $1 with the purchase of a Chi-Dog!!!
What is on a Chicago Dog? – It all starts with essential raw materials imported from the Windy City: poppy seed buns, steamed before serving; all-beef Vienna brand hot dogs; neon green relish; sport peppers; dill pickle spear; tomato, onion and yellow mustard (French’s is traditional). The secret ingredient is celery salt; the poppy seed bun is essential. Oh…and no ketchup. Sorry!
All “Chicago-Dogs” will be served w/ delicious and perfectly executed golden brown skinny fries!!! Single Dog $7 or double down and do Two Dogs for $12!
“Chicago Dogs” are only available in the Carpe Vino Wine Bar. PBR & Koozie promotion only valid with purchase of “Chicago Dogs.”

TOMORROW, Thursday, October 10th 6-8PM
For years, literally decades, we have been HUGE FANS of SIERRA MOON GOLDSMITHS (CLICK HERE FOR WEBSITE or HERE FOR INSTAGRAM) located here in Old Town Auburn. Whether it was a custom-designed, handcrafted, hand forged, one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry or something they display/sell from their nationally/international portfolio of amazing jewelers…they truly have something for everyone. The quality of their craftsmanship, customer service and overall purchasing experience, are second to none. So, when owner Shawn Baldwin, along with her husband Brad, pitched us on the idea to host a cooperative event, we were on board before the name “William Henry” was said!
Who/What is William Henry?
William Henry, (CLICK HERE FOR WEBSITE or HERE FOR INSTAGRAM) earned its fame for creating exclusive and award-winning pocket knives, and transforming the archetype of all tools into a superb piece of functional jewelry for men. Today’s collections also include men’s jewelry, writing instruments, money clips, cuff links, and key chains.
On Thursday, October 10th from 6-8pm, JOIN US in the CARPE VINO WINE MINEto not only view/purchase WILLIAM HENRY (pocket knives, writing instruments, money clips, etc), but do so while tasting outstanding Bourbon & Whiskey!!! Attendees will have the option to taste ROUGH RIDER BOURBON (CLICK HERE FOR WEBSITE or HERE FOR INSTAGRAM) and/or BOTIQUE-Y WHISKEY (CLICK HERE FOR WEBSITE or HERE FOR INSTAGRAM) all while perusing the inventory! Mark Sprague, William Henry’s senior and most knowledgeable representative, will be onsite with a spectacular collection of limited and/or exclusive offerings that are not readily available “day-to-day” in Sierra Moon’s showroom. Some of these pieces are so rare, less than 10 exist, with some even being one-off productions.
This is getting lengthy but let us just say this…the Bourbon is great, BUT THE WHISKEY’S ARE THE OFF THE CHARTS. We will be trying single cask (essentially one-off’s) from Scotland, Japan and wait for it…SOUTH AFRICA (we have the last 10 bottles). The tasting starts precisely at 6PM, and a $5 fee (donated) will be required.
THE BEST PART – ALL JEWELRY, ALL BOURBON, ALL WHISKEY will be available on that night! We know its only October, but honestly, JUMP ON THAT CHRISTMAS/HOLIDAY SHOPPING NOW!!!
— WILL NOT BE ONSITE, BUT CAN ALWAYS BE ORDERED!

We are post-poing our 2nd Saturday pick-up until next Saturday, October 19th due to an event in Auburn that will create too much confusion for event-goers and CV members alike. We apologize for any inconvenience, but do look forward to seeing you next week!
ALSO – due to the recent power outage(s), our delivery schedules have been completely interrupted. We are doing our best to fulfill wine club for Friday and “The Fall Classic” wine orders for next Wednesday. We greatly appreciate your patience and understanding.
