S2 Ep. 3: No Wine Snobs Allowed with TJ & Hadley Douglas

February 05, 2020

The husband wife duo behind The Urban Grape in Boston’s South End are all about making wine culture more accessible: They take the pretension out of wine talk by making everyone who walks into their store feel welcome. They classify bottles “progressively,” in a unique system that prioritizes finding wine you’ll love. They champion small producers. We chat with the couple about work and family life, running a woman/black-owned wine shop, and why trends won’t dictate what’s on the shelf at UG.  Don't miss our upcoming Galentine's Day Party at OAK Long Bar + Kitchen on February 13th from 6-9PM. Join us for a night of sipping, snacking, and sweets to celebrate the ladies – all while supporting Women’s Lunch Place, a local charity that helps homeless women. For more information, click HERE. We hope to see you there!  Weeknight dinner stress is cancelled! Catherine's company, not just co., helps you get a healthy, delicious meal done fast with their modern pantry staples, plus easy recipes for you on those evenings you aren't hitting the Boston restaurant scene. Use code TFL20 to receive 20% off your order.  Thank you to our season two sponsors, Winestyr and Image Unlimited Communications.
