In Brief
WCIA/WCFN Morning Show - Wednesday, April 15th
Tax Day, April 15th, Brian Bowman will again represent Sun Singer on the Morning Show Whet You Whistle segment with Rob Collins. The segment airs roughlyat 8:30a.m. and in this show Brian will be presenting wines with a movie theme in celebration of Ebertfest. While you're making those last minute tax changes and hopefully licking the envelopes (or filing for an extension) tune in the Morning Show for an early morning taste with Brian and Rob.
Past Weekend in Review
Despite a few traffic delays last Saturday with the first Illinois Marathon the race brought a great spirit to the twin cities for the weekend. The weather could not have been more perfect for the race and we had a number of marathoners who came in with their support crews to 'rehydrate'. Surprising that Sun Singer wasn't even on the race course!
Goin' South
We also had a good time this past weekend as Mark Yarbrough, proud Sun Singer owner, stepped in to host our Sensational Saturday tasting. He was a very busy boy for the afternoon, and while the tasting was focused toward the Easter holiday, Mark couldn't resist expanding the tasting with a few additional selections from the Wine Bar. If you missed him last Saturday, you can look forward to seeing Mark this Saturday, April 18th as he hosts Tour Chile with Mark! The Yarbrough family has recently been to the 'End of the World' and will be delighted to share some of their adventures of travel and wine. You can read the details below, but be sure to join us for lunch and some travel and tasting fun.
Boneyard Arts Festival & U of I Mom's Weekend
While Sun Singer isn't participating directly in the festival, we invite you to stop by on your way to and from events this weekend. There's no doubt this will be a busy weekend, but we welcome you to join the fun. April 18th and 19th, we'll be invaded with Moms and Daughters for the yearly U of I Mom's Weekend. Watch out Champaign-Urbana! These Moms have a style all their own and the stamina to have a good time! Remembering from last year, Sun Singer was packed with new faces Saturday afternoon crowding out our regulars until later in the evening.
Join us soon for more good times at Sun Singer!
Best Wishes,
Mark, Jackie & the Sun Singer Staff
We like to refer to
grenache as the pinot noir of the foothills. A properly made grenache
has a lot of the same characteristics as pinot noir - the fruitiness
you typically find in a pinot and a little of its earthiness.
