Hi all,

WINE TASTING – We are in for a real treat this Friday, October 10th. The wine maker (I think) for Spellbound Wines is going to be at the shop to show us their lineup which includes a Riesling, a Chardonnay, a Petite Sirah, a Zin and a Cab. To round things out we’ll try the Bogle Phantom what with Halloween coming up. For you that went to Sonoma on our last wine trip will recall what a great time we had at the winery and what great wines they have.

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, although it hasn’t been an issue lately.

MUSIC – Another great night of jazz is coming! Bob Ravenscroft, on the piano, and Dwight Kilian, on the standup bass, will be here on Saturday, October 18th at 6 PM until 8:30 PM. You will be impressed! Remember that there is no cover and no minimum. Just come in and listen to some really talented musicians play some really great jazz.

THANKS – Thanks to everyone that came by on Friday to listen to Craig talk about some wonderful wines, to everyone that came by on Saturday to listen to Bryne play some great sax and everyone that came by on Sunday to make Linda’s fund raiser such a success. She was able to raise enough money to take 4 young mothers Christmas shopping. Thank you, thank you and thank you again!

OTHER – We’re going GREEN! We’ve ordered some wine totes and will be selling them at cost (with our logo on them so you won’t forget us). Then each time you use one on a purchase of two or more bottles we’ll deduct 25¢ from your bill. You won’t get rich but you’ll help the environment a little.

Liza is having a Jewelry party on October 26. Buy $20 or more in jewelry and you can buy a glass of wine for 25¢. Mark your calendars!

We have the new edition of the publication called Arizona Vines and Wines. It is free, has a lot of information and is beautifully done. Look for it by the cash register next time you check out.

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

Have fun,
Liza and Bob
