WHAT IS A RESERVE TICKET? | |
|
Fancy Drinks!
If you purchase a "Reserve" ticket for $40 rather than a $25 General Admission ticket, you will be able to taste the most exclusive items at The Amazing Taste. In years past, high-end Champagne, Scotch, etc. has been available on a first-come, first-served basis. This year, items which are extra-special or extra-expensive will only be available to "Reserve" ticketholders.
In addition to tasting some of the most exclusive-est (!) stuff at the event, Reserve ticketholders will also receive crystal tasting glasses to enjoy their super-fancy drinks!
RESERVE tickets are available for $40.There are only 100 of these RESERVE tickets available, and they can ONLY be purchased at Lukas Liquor Superstore.

AUGUST PICKS OF THE MONTH | |
We taste over 2,200 wines a year.
Every once in a while - we taste a wine we like!
Each month, several of us tell you about our current favorite.
Great idea, eh? Gary's Pick:
Clos Du Bois Chardonnay Calcaire $19.99
Gary is so sneaky... he tried to pick Tarima Monastrell as his Pick! I then had to remind him that Tarima won Pick of the Month LAST month! Also, try his Chardonnay.
Tim's Pick:
Cartlidge & Browne Sauvignon Blanc
Dancing Crow Vineyard $12.99
This sexy little number is a Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc from Lake County California. It is made with Organically Grown grapes which are farmed sustainably, and it's packaged with a screwcap to maintain it's fresh, crisp, clean taste. Perfect for summer (way better than Chardonnay).
Adam's Pick:
Maker's 46 $32.99
They take fully-matured Makers Mark and age it on Oak staves for several more months for deeper complexity and rich caramelly deliciousness (it's a word). The result? Taste for yourself.
Leitz Out Riesling $11.99
With the Leitz Out, it's less dangerous.
Jeff's Pick:
Congress Springs Lodi Pinot Noir $9.99 Jeff drank three bottles of this Pinot last week. He then passed out and slept through his shift. His excuse? "It was an Act of Congress." Okay - that didn't happen, but this is a great bottle of Pinot at a greater price! |
