ADVERTISING: Advertorial — Lola… You should go

We have known Sam Lange for over a decade and have worked with Sam frequently in his previous roll as the Sommelier at Beverly’s at the Coeur d’Alene resort. Our paths have crossed even more frequently in his other “gigs” in the wine industry over the years. Sam has been at the business of wine for a long time and has one of the best and most respected palates in the business. We have known Anna Lombard as long as we have known Sam. She has been a customer of ours and we have been customers of hers. We respect Anna’s talents as one of the most astute business people in North Idaho, and appreciate her wonderful friendship and welcoming style more than we can say.
