I visited Lanthier's retail side around the holidays, and found myself happily smothered by creatively decorated Christmas trees, big and small, artistic and comical, in every nook and cranny of the building. Lanthier does the Festival of Trees in a big way for a small space, and capstones it with their famous Rudolph Red, a sweet wine meant to be mulled.
We enjoyed a cup of mulled wine in one of their cozy booths upstairs. It's a popular wine that goes fast around the holidays, and we were lucky to drop in during the workday when it wasn't too crowded, so if you're ever visiting, be sure to drop in earlier in the day if you can. You can always carry out, but it's a great opportunity to have a glass while you're there.
