Hi all,

Peter Franus, the winemaker at Peter Franus Wines, will be here March 8th! So there won’t be a wine class on Friday the 7th. We will taste through most of his lineup and everything will be available for sale. You can visit his web site at www.franuswine.com. His wines are amazing!

On this Friday, Feb 15th, Scott Greenwold of Southern Wine and Spirits will present the York Cuvee One and the Justin Cabernet Sauvignon. He and I weren’t able to figure out the balance of the wines but they are always good and Scott does a fun presentation.

We’ve got a new Jazz group called “Inner Journeys” to play on Saturday, February 16th starting at 6 PM. It is a duo featuring Bob Ravenscroft on the piano and Dwight Kilian on Bass. Both are accomplished musicians with multiple albums.

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.

Heather is going to help us with another Fine Wines and Facials on Wednesday, Feb 27th. To quote from her flyer, “pamper your palette with fine wines and pamper your skin with a facial & microdermabrasion skin treatment!” It is only $10 for the wines and the facial. Make a reservation by calling her at 602 677-9535.

Thanks to everyone who came by last week for Ron’s presentation. He certainly made up for his bad penguin joke. We are limiting attendance to 45 guests. Please don’t show up a minute or two before 6:00 PM and expect to get in.

Rootdown can’t make the date to play here on Thursday, February 28th, so we are looking at a date in March. We’ll let you know as soon as we get something picked that will work for everyone.

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
