Your host is Joanne Davis of Winebow.
Things are really jumping at the store today! Plenty of people stopping by to taste wines, stock up for tomorrow and/or just to be out in the beautiful weather. A few moms are at the table and tasting with Joanne. We are carrying on our long held tradition of passing out roses to all of the moms that come by today. These ladies don't know it yet but as soon as the camera is put down they will be handed a Rose. The flowers always seem to bring a smile to face of each recipient and it gets their once a year weekend started right. Happy Mother's Day!
