Thursday, September 1st:Cabernet v. Tempranillo Smackdown
 No one can understand how these two champions came to occupy the same September 1st virtual celebration date. At Sun Singer, we don't think there's enough room even in virtual reality for these heavyweights to share - so we want you to decide who gets the day! Step into the Ring: We're put these contenders head-to-head for you to taste and then leave the details to you. Using hashtags #CabernetDayand #TempranilloDay @Sun_Singer, you can tell the world about the ultimate triumph and which wine will claim the day as its own. Join us all day September 1st and help decide the fate of these varietal giants! "Twitter Taste" Special: 2 ounces of each wine for $10 Melka 'CJ' Cabernet Sauvignon '08, Napa Valley, California  The 2008 CJ Cabernet is ripe with blueberry, black currant and black cherry jamminess. On the nose there is a hint of anise and black pepper, which appears again on the back of the palate. Its fine-grain tannins add texture while oak-influence adds a caramel flavor to the wine's medium length finish.
Vinas del Cenit Tempranillo '04, Toro, Spain 
Deep purple in color with aromatic intensity of graphite, blackberries, blueberries, and spice box. Rich and full-bodied but with a superb touch of elegance and restraint. Flavors of chocolate and raspberries explode on the palate, with a good deal of acidity and tannin adding to complexity. Outstanding!! 2 ounce $6.00 5 ounce $12.00 | 
A number of virtual wine tastings will occur online over the next few weeks and there's lots of opportunities to discover new and exciting wines: #CabernetDay & #TempranilloDay (both Sept 1st), and #Grenache Day (Sept 25th).
