Wolverine Wine of the Week!
Andy is going crazy (what’s new!) and Wine of the Week has turned into Wine of the month! He’s picked five great wines and discounted them until April 30th (or until the supply runs out). Because there are so many, we will keep this brief:
Josh Cellars Chardonnay is bright, tropical, with citrus flavors and a touch of oak. Regular price: $13.99 . . . On sale for $11.99.
Josh Cellars Carbernet Sauvignon offers ripe blackberry and cherry flavors, accented by spices and toasted oak. Regular price: $16.99 . . . on sale for $12.99.
Wente Cabernet Sauvignon is very distinctive with a lot of depth and intensity. Ripe black cherry and plum flavors, with undertones of coffee and spice. Regular price: $15.99. On sale for $13.99.
Bread and Butter Chardonnay has hints of vanilla, toasted oak and cream. Best when slightly chilled. Regular price: $15.99 . . . on sale for $12.99.
Route Stock Cabernet Sauvignon is one of Andy’s favorites and it has been on sale before. It is an approachable Cabernet and will become one of your favorites. Priced at $19.99 (save $7!).
We specialize in many high end wines. Just a reminder that there are discounted prices if you buy 6 or more bottles (excluding sale prices). Mix and match the wines or just buy a case!
Andy is a certified sommelier who is experienced in finding the right wine for you. If you have a wine you liked, remember to take a picture of the bottle so Andy can try to get it for you. If you have any questions about aging or storing or even the value, he’d be happy to help you out!

Meet Andy!
Andy Bakko opened Wolverine Market in 1991 knowing the beer and wine business was his next big thing, and he’s making the most of it.
A few years ago, what started as a fun trip with the some representatives from a wine company turned into a much larger endeavor. This trip involved the group taking the Level I Introductory Sommelier Course & Exam. Much studying was done beforehand, and everyone in the group passed the test—not a small feat.
Nobody else in the group continued the adventure to achieve a Master Sommelier title, but Andy caught the bug. He recently passed the second test, Level II Certified Sommelier Exam, and is close to passing the Level III Advanced Sommelier Course & Exam. Once he passes the Level III test, he’ll be one step away from achieving the Master Sommelier certification.
At the start of 2009, just 171 people in the world held that certification. Andy is the only advanced sommelier in the Blue Water Area and he doesn’t take it lightly. He very much enjoys hosting wine, beer and liquor tastings to share his knowledge with his customers, and he works very hard to bring the latest and greatest into the store.
“The more we know, the more we can share with our customers—the more we can help our customers. Our goal always is to provide the best service possible. Our customers are the most important part of our business—we learn as much from them as we hope they do from us.” ~ Andy Bakko
