Rockin Wine Tastings at 2 Long Island CostCo Locations

Costco Rocks Labor Day with Two Long Island Wine Tastings

People of New York-- don't let Hurricane Earl get you down! Come celebrate the last days of summer with wine tastings at two Long Island Costcos this Friday. We will be at both Holbrook & Westbury Locations in Long Island.  Stay safe, avoid the hurricane, listen to music, and drink great wine, all to celebrate the last days of summer.

As you walk through the doors of Holbrook Liquors, you will be blown away by the sheer volume of wine and musical awesomeness that Wines That Rock and Holbrook Liquors have cooked up for your rainy Friday afternoon. Truly, this must be seen to be believed. A WALL of Wines that Rock!

Costco is ready to get its rock 'n roll on...as in Wines That Rock. We are very excited to announce our first Wine Tasting of Wines That Rock at Costco! Come out and taste these 3, award-winning, critically acclaimed varietals;

- The Rolling Stones Forty Licks Merlot
- Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon Cabernet Sauvignon
- Woodstock Chardonnay

It's Only Rock 'n Roll like WTR can do it!
While some wine companies pair wine & cheese, Wines That Rock pairs music & wine. But not just any music, not just any wine.

With the music of the Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd and Woodstock echoing through your favorite Costco locations (*loudly), the Wines That Rock team will be on hand to taste through the Wines and meet the good folks of Long Island. It's the Rock ‘n Roll Wine Event & the tastings are FREE.

2 Separate Locations:
But wait-- are you closer to Westbury Liquors? Get your local competition on by visiting our OTHER Wines That Rock tasting at Westbury, which has an equally impressive display of Wines That Rock.

A WALL of WINE, PEOPLE!

She asked for Wines That Rock

That’s CRAZY!!

Just a little story from the road. Yesterday, we were visiting Karps Wines and Liquors in East Islip, NY – Just stopping by a shop to say hello and drop off a poster or 2, when Regina walked into the store and asked for a bottle of The Rolling Stones - Wines That Rock!

Come on!

What are the chances of that happening? The mystical part of this chance happening was that Walter, one of the guys at Karps and I were talking about his father, and what a huge Stones fan he was at the exact moment Regina walked in.  We snapped a shot of Regina – and here she is with her Stones Bottle.

Thanks Regina, you really made our day with that!
