Heather Flemming has been in the business of wine for more than 20 years and knows everything there is to know about wines.  I wish I could hire her to "wine shop" with me, because I am clueless when it comes to the reds!  To me, a red is a red.  I think though, that serious red wine drinkers would disagree :)  Heather has traveled to some of the best wine vineyards in the world to learn as much as she could about wine.  She's been to California, Oregon, Chile, Italy (OMG, I'm jealous), France and Spain too!  These amazing wine educational trips have given her the knowledge and expertise she now shares with the customers at Lees Wine and Spirits.

Becky Turner is Lees Wine and Spirits beer expert and buyer.  She's the gal who gets to pick which brews Lees will be stocking, and man, that sounds like a fun job!   Becky makes sure that all of the brands of beer sold at Lees Wine and Spirits are local from Mass and Rhode Island.  There's no room for "old beer", it's just not their thing. Becky likes to keep the store stocked with the best craft beers found close to home.  She also manages the "Scotch Room" which has become bourbon and rye-centric because those are two hot categories in the last couple of years. Becky was able to go to Kentucky for "work" to visit a few distilleries and get some hands on knowledge on the bourbon and rye scene, so she knows her stuff; she's the gal to see at Lees Wine and Spirits.
