Calvert Woodley Fall Wine Sale
through November 25
There's less than two weeks left to stock up on wines for the holidays at the Calvert Woodley's annual fall wine sale. The price cuts are not eye-popping, but a large selection of wine is on sale for $2 to $4 off per bottle (by my unscientific count). It's a good opportunity to buy some bottles that are usually pushing the high end of your price range to have on hand for parties and gifts over the upcoming holidays. On one of those December Saturday afternoons when I have 5 minutes between shopping and partying I'll be glad to be able to grab a nice bottle off my wine rack rather than have to stop at some overpriced shop en route to the next event.
The sale is going on until November 25 and their catalog is available for download on their website. The store is located at 4339 Connecticut Avenue, NW, near Van Ness. It's tends to be crowded and tough to park in their small lot on Saturdays (and they're closed Sundays). Unless you have a lot of patience, I recommend going in the evening -- they are open until 8:30. And taking advantage of their offer to carry the wine to your car. Particularly if you get carried away . . . .
