Hi all,

WINE TASTING – Twice this week!

On August 19th, this Wednesday, Tami Carija from Tolosa Winery in San Luis Obispo is going to be in the shop. We’ll have a little tasting featuring their unoaked Chardonnay, their oaked Chardonnay, their Pinot Noir and their Cab. And it is free!

And then on Friday, August 21st, Ron Feczko is going to do another “versus style” wine class. This time we are going to compare and contrast St Francis and Wild Oak wines. We’ll taste the Merlot, the Zinfandel and the Cabernet Sauvignon from each. It should be fun!

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 (usually six) and compliment them with the best food at any wine class in the state. We are limiting attendance to the first 45 people.

Laura Zahtila of Zahtila Wines will be in the shop on the 26th. She has been emailing her club members what the plan is but one thing is for sure…they’re going to be great!

MUSIC – Bryne Donaldson and his saxes will be in the shop next from 7 PM to 9:30 PM on Saturday, September 5th. Plan to come and listen to some great music and have a good time.

THANKS – Thanks to all of you that showed up to the wine class last Friday. And thanks to Dan for putting on a new twist. It was fun to compare and contrast and obviously has some good wines. Thanks too for you that came to Phyllis’ jewelry party.

OTHER – There is a local guy that takes our empty wine bottles and turns them into recycled wine bottle glasses. They look great, are now dishwasher safe and help the environment. We have them for sale in sets of four, with or without our logo, for $20.

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.

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. Of course the selection is always changing.

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

Have fun,
Liza and Bob
