Hi all,

Someday you will be old and you will better understand. Scott has arranged for the owners of a Napa Valley winery to be at our shop this Friday, May 11th. At least a half dozen times he has told me their names. And at least twice he has told me the wines we will be tasting. But all to no avail. I can’t find my notes and I don’t remember much. I think their name is Ballentine or something like that and what I do remember is that there was a nice cross section of wines. Be early as we will cut things off at 45 people, not that it has been a problem lately.

The presentation will start promptly at 6:00 PM. Remember this “ain’t LA” (thank goodness) so don’t be late. The wine class cost $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 in the valley at any wine tasting.

Mark your calendars for June 1st as we will be doing something special then. I can tell you that Katie from Divine Wines will be doing the presentation but that is all for now.

There are a couple of wine lockers available if you need to store some of your overflow. Under the bed only works for so long. They rent for $7/month and if you rent for a year you get your name on the plaque on the door.

There is still room for you that want to go to Paso Robles with us in August. For $1060 per person you get round trip airfare, ground transportation, hotel accommodations (double occupancy) for three nights (August 10, 11 & 12), wine tasting and touring, full breakfasts each day and lunches on Saturday and Sunday. We will need a deposit of $300 per person soon with the balance due by June 15th. I counted one person twice so there are actually two spaces left.

Keep smiling,

Liza and Bob
