For 19 years owner Caroline Crane has operated the Bare Cove Wine Annex in the Fruit Center Marketplace. As the store manager says, "Food and wine naturally go together." So along with picking up a cut of meat from the Corner Meat Shop and some groceries from the Fruit Center, customers can stop by the Annex to grab a nice bottle of wine. Each wine that is sold in the store is taste tested by the staff before it hits the shelf. Saturdays are tasting day and the store also does occasional tastings for charity. It also sells cold beer.
