Varietal Exploration
POSTPONED- DATE TBD
Most of us are super familiar and comfortable with the "Nobel Varietals"... Cabernet, Merlot, and Malbec for the reds and Chardonnay & Sauvignon Blanc for the whites. Come chat, taste, and learn with Corey about bunches (no pun intended) of varietals you may not be as familiar with. We guarantee you'll come away with some new favorites as well as a greater level of comfort when it comes to sussing out hidden gems in the shop and on wine lists! We were lucky to have Corey Davison work in the shop last year, before he joined one of the best boutique importers in the state, and we're thrilled to have him back in the fold teaching classes!

Wines of Place
We are always seeking out traditional, small-production, authentic and delicious wines from around the world. In doing so, we are representing the hardworking men and women who identify as farmers first, often carrying on multi-generational traditions in their respective wine-making regions. We work closely with our favorite importers and distributors to provide high quality, honest, balanced wines of all styles and take pride in offering bottles that represent great value at every price-point. Come in or give us a call for a consultation, or join our DFP Wine Club!
Wine shop discounts: 10% off on six or more bottles, 15% off on full cases.
Craft Beer
Just as we represent the small production, family-run wineries from around the world, Dave’s also carries a varied selection of craft beers in four-pack, six-pack, single and large formats, both local and imported. Looking for that rare, limited-release or highly allocated beer from your favorite brewery but don’t see it in the case? Just ask and we will do our best to find it for you.
