It’s New to Us by Jean Stratton



TEMPTING TASTINGS: Mark Censits, owner of CoolVines, the new wine shop in town, holds a bottle of Petite Rousse, a Syrah from California. “It’s medium-bodied, with a slightly spicy flavor,” he explains. “Also, the owner of the winery plays music in the vineyard when the grapes are growing, and he only picks and prunes during certain phases of the moon!”

“There are people with a low or high interest in wine, or low or high knowledge of wine. We particularly enjoy working with customers who have a high interest and low knowledge. They are interested in learning about new wines and trying them. We attract people who are exploring. Young people especially are interested in trying different wines and learning about their own personal preferences.”


HOME AGAIN: “The intimacy of Lambertville is part of its charm, and because our shop is intimate, people feel at home. All our customers have been so welcoming. We feel we’re a part of the Lambertville community.” Nick Bewsey (standing) and Nelson Zayas, owners of Blue Raccoon Home Gifts Design, are happy to be back in their Lambertville location.
