Hi all,

Sometimes things don’t work out as planned. And sometimes that creates an opportunity. We booked a winemaker that we won’t name to appear next Friday, April 18th, but he can’t make it. So I’m going to show some of the new wines we have gotten in lately that you haven’t had a chance to see during a tasting. We’ll start with the alma rosa Pinot Gris from Santa Barbara, then try the Richard Hamilton Viognier from Australia, followed by the Angeline Pinot Noir from the Russian River Valley, then Arizona’s own Pillsbury Roan Red, and conclude with a pair of Lisa Pretty’s Mission View Zin and Cab from Paso Robles.

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 attendance to 45 guests.

Thanks to everyone that stopped by last week to hear Craig and taste the Barnard Griffin wines from Washington. Jimmy thinks this is LA but the food was great. The Riesling went perfectly with the chicken he prepared.

Inner Journeys will play again on Saturday, the 19th, with a little different line up. Bob Ravenscroft will be replaced by Jacob Koller on the piano and Dwight Kilian will be on the standup bass for this one time. On the third Saturday in May Bob will be back.

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

We have a great new publication about the Arizona wineries. It has a lot of information and is beautifully done. Look for it by the cash register next time you check out.

Have fun,
Liza and Bob
