Hi all,

WINE TASTING – Devine will be telling us about the Rombauer Chard, Zin and Cab this Friday, November 21st. We’ll fill out the lineup with a Pinot Blanc from Valley of the Moon and the Kenwood SB and Merlot. Excellent wines all!

No wine class on the 28th with Thanksgiving and all.

The presentation Friday will start promptly at 6:00 PM. Remember this “ain’t LA” (thank goodness) so don’t be late. The wine class costs $10 per person and all the featured wines are 10% off. For the money you get to try the wines during the wine class and compliment them with the best food at any wine class in the state. We are limiting the class size to 45.

MUSIC – New hours! On Saturday, December 6th, there is going be another great night of live jazz. Bryne Donaldson will be here with his sax. Remember there is no cover and no minimum. Just come in and listen to a really talented musician play some really great music. We are changing the start times on those Saturday’s with music to 7 PM so they can play to 9:30.

THANKS – We appreciate all of you that came to listen to Carl from Awesome Wines tell us about some outstanding wines from Australia. And thanks for coming in on Saturday to listen to Bob and Dwight. They are recording their sessions at our shop with the idea of releasing a CD in a few months. Their next appearance will be on the 20th of December.

OTHER – We have always given a discount of 10% if you buy a case (12 bottles) of wine. Now you get the discount when you buy only 6 bottles.

The wine totes are here. And they are great! They have individual pouches for up to six bottles and we’re selling them at cost, $2.50 each, to encourage you to get one. Then each time you buy 2 or more bottles and use your tote, we will give you 25 cents off your purchase. That will save a few trees along the way. Please participate.

We’re giving away a bicycle! The basic idea is that when you buy a couple of bottles of the very reasonably priced Bohemian Highway wines, you get entered in a drawing. They have a Pinot Grigio, a Sauvignon Blanc, a Chardonnay, a Merlot and a Cabernet Sauvignon for less than eight dollars each. Just before Christmas (yes Matilda there is going to be a Christmas this year) on the 19th of December we will have the drawing and someone will win the bike. It is the kind you pedal, a “cruiser”, and not the kind your favorite lawyer rides. And a portion of the proceeds are being donated to Linda’s Secret Santa Shopping Spree.

The Turley wines are very hard to get but we have their Zinfandel from the Ueberroth Vineyards. It is great (and expensive)!

You may have noticed that we have some wines on sale up at the front of the shop. These are excellent wines that are the older vintage or one that we can’t get more of or such. And you can save a few bucks off our already great prices.

We have WiFi available in the shop if you’d like to use it. Just ask for the password.

Have fun,
Liza and Bob
