Wine in Brookside, our winner this year for Best Wine Tastings, celebrates its first anniversary next week. The folks there hope lots of customers will join in the celebration at 112 W. 63rd Street. 

The week's events kick off with a wine sale on Monday, October 12 -- five percent off everything in the store. Tuesday is a special wine and food pairing for $100 per person. At Friday's wine tasting, customers can enjoy a birthday cake from Andre's and Foo's custard. And a big birthday sale is planned for Saturday. The weekly special is 15 percent of all sparkling wines.

"It's been a challenge in this economy, but since this is my first

retail establishment, I have nothing to compare it to," says Andrea

Bough, who left the world of real estate law to open the Brookside

shop.

She believes that Wine has survived because of her focus on quality and service, as well as wines at every price level.

"We have a knowledgeable staff and we focus on smaller productions and cult vineyards," says Bough.

Wine is sponsoring Taste For the Cure, a special Rose wine tasting this Friday from 4 to 7 p.m., in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

The regulars show up for wine tastings as early as 4:30 p.m., so get there before dinnertime to get a seat.
