Don's 'Whine' of the Month
|
|
Spring is here, well sort of. For me, along with the nicer weather comes a changing of the taste buds. Although I am a "Big Red" guy I am starting to drink lighter, more refreshing reds as you'll see from my selection below.
You will also find my monthly selections in each copy of the FKCO Report!
Don's Pick for April: Willamette Valley Vineyard
Vineyard: Willamette Valley Vineyard, Oregon
Type: Pinot Noir
Likes: Crisp and refreshing. A great mood changer
Proper way to serve: Chill before serving.
Great with: Sharp cheddar cheese and crackers, a great book on a sun drenched deck.

FKCo Goes Bowling
|
We just had to do it. The 17th of March was St. Patrick's Day
as well as our corporate deadline. With this in mind, we got out of
the office and took our aggressions out on the pins. A good time was
had by all, and the girls won! Yee Haw. Even accountants need a break
during tax season.
