Rich LaRosa, winemaker from Marchetti Wines (Olympia, WA) will be pouring his wines in our shoppe on Saturday, May 12, 2012 from 1:00pm till 5:00pm. A flight of his wines (a taste of everything that he is pouring) will be available for only $5.00 and you will save 10% on any bottles of his wines that are purchased while he is in the shoppe.

Rich produces “Big Reds” including a Malbec, Zinfandel, Tempranillo, Sangiovese, Cabernet Franc, and “Sotto Voce” which is a blend of Cabernet Franc, Sangiovese, and Tempranillo. 

Marchetti Wines are made in the tradition of the Old World, without the use of chemicals or preservatives. A process of natural fermentation is used, and the flavors are purely from the grapes themselves and the oak barrels in which the wine is made and aged. These wines are free-run, hand crafted and unfiltered. This method of natural fermentation has been passed through five generations of the winemaker’s family.

These delicious wines are always a hit in our shoppe so mark your calendar… you don’t want to miss this!

We are changing our wine shoppe hours effective Tuesday, April 17, 2012.  Please note that our new hours will be as follows:

Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday we will be open from 12:00 noon till 6:00 pm.

Friday and Saturday we will be open from 12:00 noon till 8:00 pm.

We will be closed on Sunday and Monday.

We thank you so much for your continued support and we feel truly blessed to be a part of this wonderful community.

We are going to be hosting a local artisan in our shoppe on the third Saturday of each month. This is our way of honoring the talent in Ocean Shores and give artisans an opportunity to showcase what they do. This offer is being made to those not associated with any of the galleries in town. Each artisan will be given use of a card table and may bring in another table for display if he/she so desires. Each artisan will conduct his/her own sales and will not have access to the store cash register or credit card machine. All proceeds from your sales are yours.

If you are an artisan or know of someone who might be interested in this opportunity please stop by the wine shoppe, give us a call, or send us an email. Each month will feature only one person. A book signing would be something of interest as well. Preference is given to wine related items although we will consider other art works, books, recordings, etc.

Welcome to Ocean Shores, Washington and more specifically… to our special place on the coast. We are so glad that you are visiting our website and hope to meet you soon in our wine shoppe. We are the owners of Sipping Serendipity Wine Shoppe and have chosen this name because we so love the concept.  Serendipity… the effect by which one accidentally discovers something fortunate, especially while looking for something else entirely.

My husband, Alan, and I moved to Ocean Shores in 2010. He is newly retired and we decided that relocating to the Pacific Northwest would bring us much happiness in our retirement years. And then… this serendipitous opportunity presented itself and we embraced it. On April 14 we will be opening our doors to our community and all its visitors. A dream come true for me!

Our son and his wife and our daughters and their signficant others have supported and encouraged us through this process and have played a major role in helping us with everything from the design of our logo to the develpment of our website and we thank them very much! Our new Ocean Shores friends as well as family and friends from other places have encouraged us as well.

When you visit our shoppe we encourage you to explore the many bottles of wine from the Pacific Northwest and all around the world. We will be happy to answer your questions and make suggestions about our wines. Do you need a little guidance with a food and wine pairing? We will be more than pleased to help you with that.  Would you like to enjoy a glass of wine or maybe a flight of red or white wines in our shoppe? We offer those options everyday at our wine bar.  We also have an assortment of IPA’s if that is your preference. And if you are looking for a refreshing non-alcoholic beverage we can offer you something from our retro-sodas collection.  We look forward to serving you!

Looking for a gift item? We can help you choose a bottle of wine or maybe you would prefer a gift certificate. We have a selection of other items as well including napkins, wine accessories, bags, glassware and of course the edible items including chocolates, gourmet crackers, and other snacks.

We hope to see you soon and often!  Cheers!

Deb Haggard, Certified Sommelier
