DUBOIS, CLEARFIELD COUNTY - Starr Hill Winery partnered with Country Market in Philipsburg a few years ago.
The store did well and Kenny Starr decided to try and open another store inside Fezzel's Shop and Save in DuBois.
After a year of planning, Monday morning they cut the ribbon and opened the new shop.
In order to have the winery in the store, Starr Hill had to create a separate outdoor entrance and had to become a store within a grocery store so, there are doors inside the grocery store that will be closed when Starr Hill is.
"You can come in and do your grocery shopping. Maybe, if you want to grab a bottle of wine for dinner and you can come taste that wine right here in the grocery store.Then, purchase that and you are ready to go so you can food and wine pair while you are right here in the grocery store" said Starr.
There is only a few other stores in the state with this set-up.
