Jack Cellars, 8016 15th Ave. N.E., is closing its doors this weekend, but wine enthusiasts got the chance to bid a fond farewell on Friday night, also known as “The Last Syrah.”
Owner Jack Ewer estimated that hundreds would show up for the three-year-old store’s last wine tasting event, and by 6 p.m. attendance seemed sure to reach that figure.
And the festivities will continue through the weekend, with a liquidation from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. today and from noon to 4 p.m. Sunday. The store’s racks, fridges, antique tasting bar, furniture, computers and more will be sold, although a number of the items already had “Sold” signs on them on Friday.
