Wine of the Week: Shooting Star Blue Franc at Gustine Market
Gustine Market (3150 Gustine Avenue; 314-932-5141) is not your typical corner store. Sure, you can stroll into the rehabbed brick building across from Tower Grove Park and pick up a bag of Doritos or a Busch tallboy. But you can also find more interesting eats, like Shakespeare's Pizza or Billy Goat chips, or sample a specialty cheese. Even better where Gut Check is concerned, customers can peruse the market's 80 wine selections with co-owner Vicky Cummiskey - which is exactly what we did while tasting the 2008 Steele Shooting Star Blue Franc.
