Shelburne Falls Cork owner William Seibert’s favorite wine this year is Chateu de La Liquière, which he describes as a “beautiful, brilliant, violet robe. Expressive fruit and smoky flavors. Explosion of cassis and raspberry...” The wine is  $16 a bottle at his store.

William Seibert, owner of Shelburne Falls Cork, points to Chateu de La Liquière as a favorite wine this year. “This wine helps me get through the pandemic, as it brings back memories of an earlier time,” Seibert says.
