Wine store opens in Worcester
Canal District Wines is now open on Green Street in Worcester.
The artistic director at the Hanover Theatre, Rachel Scanlon, and principal of a regional elementary school, Olivia Scanlon, are the owners of the shop. They decided to open it as they often had to travel far outside their Canal District in order to find a collection of good wine. Olivia said they often had to travel as far as Shrewsbury to stock up, so the two decided to create a local shop to welcome all those in the neighborhood.
There will be a curated selection of 24 wines—eight will be white wines, another eight will be red, and the last eight will be rosé or specialty varieties. Prices for each bottle will range from $12 to $28. Wineries operated by women or people of color will supply about half of the wines.
Canal District Wines will be hosting four wine tasting events this month on Thursdays, run by Brittany Kurowski. Each tasting will have its own theme – Thursday, December 9 will be same grape, different region; Thursday, December 16 will be big reds; and Thursday, December 20 will be bubbly. The use of flyer printing can be beneficial in promoting such events and new stores.
Opening hours are 11:00 am to 8:00 pm Wednesday through Saturday and noon to 4:00 pm on Sunday.
