Wine of The Week, March 15         
Flor del Montgó Monastrell 2008 $12.99/750 ml 10% off on Tuesday!                  
To me, this wine has two things going for it before I even open it:
1. pretty cool label design & 2. it's made with my favorite varietal—Monastrell
Those things may matter to you but if not, just look at this as a great, affordable introduction to a lush, fruitful, gamey varietal that bridges fun and challenging.

Beer of the Month, March
Tuppers Hop Pocket $10.99/4 pk 10% off on Tuesdays!
Bethesda, MD's own Tuppers returns, now contract brewed by St. George Brewing in Hampton, VA. Thankfully, you can expect more of the same golden color, aggressive bittering hops, citrusy hop oils and carbonated crispness. Actually, I think this is a bit more balanced than the prior Old Dominion-brewed recipe.

Spirit of the Month, February
CapRock Organic Gin $32.99/750 ml
10% off on Tuesdays!
Peak Spirits is the spirits arm of Jack Rabbit Hill Biodynamic Farms and Winery in Hotchkiss, CO and, as such, sees through the distillation process of their CapRock Organic Gin from planting of the fruit to the bottle. This organic apple based gin is no fad product—it is one serious and beautiful gin. Lavender and rose buds are the prevalent botanicals here with juniper taking a (welcome, by my estimation) back seat. The result is just plain pretty to drink on its own and a more versatile mixer than most gins. We carry their lovely organic/gluten-free vodka distilled from Chambourcin grapes, as well.
