Pete's Wines Eastside
If you're a well-known klutz like me, enter Pete's Wine Shop at your own expense. I knocked over a fancy schmancy bottle of wine and just barely caught it in time before causing a domino effect and hundreds of dollars in damage. Over a thousand well-known labels from around the world, from Australia to South Africa to Italy--and of course local wineries--can be found here at such discounted prices that my friend and I strolled through each aisle competing with each other to see who could find the cheapest wine in the store, whispering to each other incredulously: "$11.99!" "$5.99!" "Ha--$2.99!" "Nah, that's gotta be cooking wine..." Pete's Wine Shop also offers beer, wine tasting and Wine School 101 for those who hopelessly cannot tell the difference between cooking wine and an expensive bottle, classily titled "Swirl, Sniff, Slurp & Spit." I'm assuming the spitting is for the cooking wine, not the pinot noir.
