About a 100 friends dropped by the Retreat office on the Square to enjoy the downtown window shopping event (and the wine). Our guests enjoyed wonderful Amish cheeses from the Bon Vivant Café at Butts Mill Farm . 
They also sipped on Green Truck north coast chardonnay grown from organic grapes from the Red Truck Winery in Hopland California.
The wine is one the first organic wine we’d sampled and we weren’t sure what to really expect. We were pleasantly surprised to find it pretty good – a little buttery with an aroma of peaches with light hints of citrus and the taste of apple and lemon. The wine was supplied by The Downtown Package Store in partnership with the Downtown Development Authority. We all had a lot of fun. We’ll do the Sip and Shop again at Christmas time.
