Hi all,

WINE TASTING – Scott is back! This Friday, June 27th, he will be talking about an eclectic mix of wines. We’ll start with an Italian Prosecco (is there some other kind?), then try the Franciscan SB (Sauvignon Blanc), taste the Essr Pinot Noir, move on to the 7 daughters Red (remember how good their white was?), and conclude with the Turnbull Red or the Stratton Lummis Cab (decisions, decisions).

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 – Another great night of jazz is coming! Bob Ravenscroft and Dwight Kilian, Inner Journeys, will play on this Saturday, June 28th at 6 PM until 8:30 PM. No cover and no minimum. Just come in and listen to some really talented musicians. Bryne Donaldson’s next gig will be on the 12th of July rather than the usual first Saturday of the month (because of the 4th).

If you haven’t been in lately we have moved, kicking and screaming, into the 21st century. After months of promises we finally purchased an I-pod and Eugene has programmed it with countless hours of great jazz with a few “Easter Eggs” thrown in for good measure. So we’re not listening to the radio any more!

SPECIAL – The Neighborhood Weight Loss Challenge meets on Wednesday at 10:45 AM. This will be a 12 week class on nutrition and weight loss. The cost is $29 that will be “won” by the three biggest “losers”. The class will meet once a week at the wine shop. It should be fun and friendly.

THANKS – We certainly do appreciate your support at the Friday Wine Classes and the other things we do. Thanks to Ron Fescko for presenting the class on Friday, thanks to Chef Jimmy for making Saturday so special and thanks to Priscilla for raising some money for Habitat for Humanity.

WINE TRIP – The 3rd Annual Cave Creek Wines Wine Trip is full

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

We have a new edition of the publication called Arizona Vines and Wines. 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
