Come enjoy a burger and see how the ‘good stuff’ is developing!

Evel Kneivel was a man of the times. Brash and reckless, as a stuntman in the ‘bad old days’, he always stretched what was thought to be possible and did it with a somehow endearing braggadocio that made him a Cultural Icon and our Meau-Faux for this month in honor of his birthday on October 17th.
The mere mention of his name on that hallowed day will get you a stellar and star-studded 29% discount on a bag of our flavorful Red or White blended wines at Crystal Basin.
Crystal Basin Cellars is highlighting our double gold medal award winning Sangiovese as our October Wine of the Month.
Sangiovese is Mother Nature’s statement about the flavor exchange that happens during the transition from Summer to Fall.
Just like the ripening cycles in October’s gardens, vineyards and pumpkin patches, Sangio somehow combines the acidity of the summer heat and transitions it to the mellowness of shorter days and narrower temperature swings of fall evenings.
Sangiovese speaks to the fall ripeness of your garden’s bounty and can create some of those memorable and sublime Indian Summer experiences that mark the change of seasons.
That’s why we are featuring it as our October Wine of the Month.
Watch Mike Owen & Rex and the Road discuss the the Crystal Basin Cellars Sangiovese below to learn more about our award winning wine!
This wine pairs well with roasted pork, gnocchi with sage butter, or even a spaghetti and meatballs meal. In other words, the perfect addition to your fall dinner table!
Enjoy a bottle of the Crystal Basin Cellars October Wine of the Month, Sangiovese, in your home by ordering a bottle to be delivered to your home or you can pick it up at one of our locations!

Look, nobody is happy about it, but George Orwell got it right way back in the 1940’s when he tried to warn us. Those of us of a certain age read it in school and we subsequently noted the passage of the actual year 1984 with more than a bit of smugness that this sickly-looking alarmist had it all wrong.
All we can say is Oops.
Maybe time to get the Audible book fired up and revisit the messages from this visionary. Because of Orwell’s June 25th birthday – we declare that he is the Prophetic Meau-Faux for June.
Our Bagnum wines can be purchased at this special price at our Camino or Folsom location ONLY. (Sorry, no online orders.)
Schedule a tasting, and grab a bagnum (or two), as we celebrate this prophetic Meau-Faux.
