Hi all,
WINE TASTING – We’re be back on schedule with Mona Riedel from Southern Wines presenting the wine class this Friday, the 29th, when she tells us about the Dry Creek Fume Blanc, the Columbia Crest Two Vines Tan (a Semillon – Chardonnay blend), the King Estate Pinot Noir, a Cab called 337 from Lodi and then finish with the Barbera and Cab from Jacuzzi.
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 the first 45 people.
WINE – Sam Pillsbury’s “One Night Stand” Rose and “Casa Blanca” Pinot Gris have arrived! We tasted barrel samples of these wines a few weeks back and they were great. Now they’re in the bottle and available at $19.99/each.
MUSIC – Bryne Donaldson and his sax will be here next on Saturday, June 6th and then again on July 11th, which isn’t the first Saturday of the month but you can see why. The music will start at 7 PM. We hope to see you then.
OTHER – Linda is starting to raise money for her Santa’s Secret Shoppers where she helps some kids at a local shelter at Christmas. To help her we’ll be having a little two wine, blind tasting and watching the movie Bottle Shock at 6:30 PM on Thursday, May 28th. The cost is only $10 and Action Wines is helping out with the wines. Movies, munchies and a raffle are included.
There is an Arizona Wine Club. Visit www.azvinowineclub.com to join. You can get three Arizona wines shipped to you or you can pick them up at our shop three times a year.
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.
We have WiFi available in the shop if you’d like to use it. Just ask for the password.
Have fun,
Liza and Bob
