Champagne Club
Our Champagne Club is a T{o}asting Club for those who truly love Champagne.
Every month we feature three different styles of Champagne from grower-producers and négociants in Champagne, France and one sparkling wine from a region outside of Champagne that's made in the Méthode Champenoise style we feel rivals value and is worthy of attention.
We invite our members to our Champagne Toast the fourth Thursday of every month and we blind taste that month’s features to help you taste the nuances of each featured Champagne. We provide producer/grower notes, vintage flutes and coupes to taste from at our Champagne Toast, and members select and purchase bubbles for home and/or Reserve at our Loft. When you Reserve your Champagne, we cellar your Champagne at our Loft for you, and we'll happily serve you and your guests your Reserved Champagne when you visit us any time that month. Champagne Club Membership starts at $49/month or $125/3-Months and requires Members to additionally purchase a minimum of one bottle of Champagne per month to Reserve at our Loft. Champagne Club Membership offers Champagne bottle-service & VIP treatment at our Loft, use of our vintage crystal and depression-era coupes and flutes when you dine with us at our Loft, 10% off food purchases every visit that month, and an invitation to that month's Champagne Toast. Your monthly membership helps us to see your lovely face and keeps our Champagne glasses full more often, and it provides us joy in sharing our recent Champagne discoveries with our members when we see you at our Loft.

Flight Club
Our Flight Club is our themed Wine Club where members choose between three Flights of three bottles of Wine for $99/month.
Our Old World Wine Flight features three wines from Europe. Each month we feature a different winemaking region, and we focus on the winemaker/winery, terroir, grape varietals, and winemaking techniques that are traditional to their region. We will also explain what makes them unique compared to other regions in the world. Old World wines are typically more earthy, drier, and show texture in tannin and structure. We love old world wines for the food memories they invoke, and we usually enjoy these with appetizers and main courses since they're made to be enjoyed with food. Our Old World Wine Flight is available the first Thursday of every month. We feature one White and two Reds in our Old World flight, and sometimes we'll swap the white for a sparkling wine or skin-contact rose or we'll feature a fourth wine as an optional add-on. Members can add-on Featured Wines at a 15% Discount.
Our New World Wine Flight features wines from the continental Americas, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand, for the most part. With global warming we're seeing new regions popping up for winemaking, and this category is generally where you'll find their introduction. New World winemakers tend to have studied traditional old-world techniques and embrace modern techniques in newer-discovered regions to create wines that are fruit-forward, acid-driven, and don't necessarily require food to be enjoyed, although we always feel food is better with wine. New World wines tend to be easy-going and approachable right away yet can also be cellared and enjoyed later depending on the varietal or blend. Our New World Flight is featured the second Thursday of every month and includes one White and two Reds in our New World flight, and sometimes we'll swap the white for a sparkling wine or skin-contact rose or we'll feature a fourth wine as an optional add-on. Members can add-on Featured Wines at a 15% Discount.
Our Natural Wine Flight features three Natural Wines by producers making minimal-intervention wines around the world. Selections are always biodynamically and/or organically farmed, with nature at the core of how the wines are made. Natural Wines are produced using a mix of traditional winemaking methods that encourages bright fruit and/or terroir forwardness. They're meant to be enjoyed now, not cellared to age, and are best served as aperitifs with lighter courses since they are typically lower in alcohol content, higher in acidity and fruit, and do not have added preservatives and low to no added sulfites. They're also usually unfiltered and unfined, aka naturally vegan, and there will sometimes be sediment in the bottle that may travel to your glass. While all Wines are technically “natural”, not all Natural Wines are made in the same style as traditional Wines. They’re conscientiously made to stand out on your palate, on your table, and in each story of how and who crafted them. Natural Wines are always limited-production labors of love in a bottle, typically made by the newest generation of winemaking families or as small projects born out of a love for specific vineyards and native grape varietals. We also love that they don’t leave you with a hangover since they’re made cleanly. Our Natural Flight is featured the third Thursday of every month and features one Skin-Contact and two 'Min-Vin' styles of Natural Wines in each flight, usually one red and one white, and sometimes we'll feature a fourth super-limited production Natural Wine as an optional add-on. Members can add-on Featured Wines at a 15% Discount.
We believe that transparency in wine is as important as it is in food and we always let you know how each featured wine is farmed, produced, bottled, and meant to be enjoyed and stored. We select each wine based on its history and where it comes from, and we introduce you to the winemaker and vineyards as well as provide you notes on how each wine was produced, and what foods and cheeses we suggest pairing with so that you can create your own wine gathering at home. We hope you'll enjoy our selections, and we always appreciate feedback.

VIDEO BELOW: Artist Carrie Jadus talks about her inspiration behind our Must Mural she's painting for our wine & cheese loft in downtown St. Petersburg, Florida. The mural is 8'H x 14'L and will be the focal point of our space, facing our Tasting Counter, and is painted on canvas in art nouveau-inspired style & colors. We are so excited to see this beauty unveiled and installed soon!
We really wanted to include our local community also, because without our community we wouldn't be inspired and/or confident to go for our dreams and open MUST, and so we are inviting locals to have your name painted on a Barrel or Bottle on our Must Mural. You'll be invited to our private unveiling party where you'll get to meet Carrie in person, taste some of our wines & cheeses before our Grand Opening, and see your name every time you visit, receive in-store discounts, and be part of our story forever.
