"Hi, my name is Todd. Welcome to House Wine. We're a unique new concept here in Fredericksburg, Texas on Main Street. As you can see, we're a combination urban eclectic home furnishing store with some antiques thrown in, and we're also a full wine bar and lounge as you'll see in this video clip. The concept kind of came about a year ago, when I was actually looking at a resume of what I've done in my life and I've done everything from start the first wine bar in the state of Texas and build award winning wine list, to running home furniture stores and being an antique dealer, and obviously my two passions were both in the home furnishings realm and in the wine realm. After finishing a little sting as a winemaker in South Africa for a couple of years, I decided to get back into the retail game and marry the two together. It's a very unique concept, we've been fortunate enough to be written up in the New York Times and Food and Wine and lots of other magazines, and well, just enjoy House Wine, and when you're in Fredericksburg, come see us and have a glass of wine."
