About SingleThread Wine Program
Chris is proud of the large offering of Sonoma County wines in the Wine Shop. “It’s a privilege to work with Sonoma wineries. Our wine list, which is 158 pages and growing, shines a lot of light on Sonoma County producers, specifically those near and dear to us and who stuck with us since the beginning of
the program.”
Two specialized subscriptions are on offer at SingleThread Wine: Champagne and Saké. “With the monthly Champagne Subscription, we hand-pick old-guard staples or something new, fresh, and exciting that leads to curiosity about the program and allows us to bring some cool bubbles to people's living rooms.The quarterly Saké Subscription puts together something special that ties in with the Japanese-inspired menu we have here while showcasing incredible and unique sakés”
