Holiday Gift Ideas
Give the Gift of Gold - Wine Fellowship Gold membership

We've started a new cycle of our Wine Fellowship, so this is a perfect time to join yourself or give that year-long gift to your spouse/significant other. Another great idea is to give the gift of Gold Membership to your best friend so the both of you can enjoy coming up to the winery for our new release pick-up weekends.

If you sign up now, there's four new wines ready to pick up (or will ship UPS right to your door). Plus signing up now includes a FREE "Where it all began" T- shirt and our new 6-bottle gift tote. This cycle of our Wine Fellowship Gold Member program includes not only 10 wines, gifts, Pick-up weekends with complimentary food but a Special wood-fired oven Pizza Night this spring.

The cost is only $150 and the benefits go beyond just receiving 10 wines, free gifts and food. Gold members enjoy a 25% discount on our wines everyday or an extra 10% over whatever the current discounts offered at the tasting room. Right now Gold members can save 40% during December on a case of wine, mixed any way you like.

 

Greetings!

Ideas are always helpful for the holidays. You got your list and you want to be generous, genuine and unique. The gifts are a reflection of yourself. So finding great ideas, great value and great taste is great news. Let me share some of our best ideas.


Gift Certificates for all occasions - custom made

We can customize Gift Certificates for any occasion and any amount. Some folks want to give a Gift certificate for an overnight stay in a particular room; others prefer to just designate a dollar amount. Call us on our toll free number 800-245-9166 or email us at brian@fitzpatrickwinery.com and we'll be ready to help.


Make the most out of our 2002/3 Merlot Deal

Remember my offer just two weeks ago? Buy a case of 2003 Merlot and I'll give you FREE a case of our 2002 Merlot. The offer is good for the first 100 cases and the cases are walking out the door nice and steady, thank you very much, but there's more.

Just think, two cases of wine around just in time for the holidays means you'll have plenty for entertaining but also for gifts. And we'll throw in two of our new 6 bottle gift totes for you to put together a handsome gift to bring with you to that holiday party. Just remember to decant the 2002 Merlot and I've included a quick and easy method printed on a sheet included with every case.



Next Weekend starting 12/9 - We present our new dessert wines

Z3 Cuvee

Just in good time for the holidays and the winter chill, we are rolling out the new Z3 Cuvee and the 2004 Morrissey's Journey. The Z3 Cuvee is a blend of three vintages of Zinfandel Port, long awaited after the release and early disappearance of the Z2 Cuvee. Our new ruby port of Syrah, the 2004 Morrissey's will make its predecessor vintage proud.

So now we offer a very exciting line up of our Poet's Choice series of organically grown estate dessert wines. Enjoy the new 2004 Joyce's Preoccupations, our white port aged in French oak developing into a graceful delicacy with an old world character. And last but not least enjoy our 2003 Wilde's Soul of Man, a ruby port cuvee of Cabernet and Merlot.

Come and enjoy tasting all the Poet's Choice series of ports paired with little treats both Saturday 12/9 and Sunday 12/10. We have special 6 bottle and 12 bottle shippers for these 375ml bottles too.

Our Prices: $10 - 15 minus our generous holiday discounts


We hope this helps you with some ideas for holiday gifts. Just for the holidays we created a new quantity discount schedule starting with 15% on just 3 bottles, 20% on six bottles and 30% on 12 or more bottles. And you can mix and match our wines any way you want to get your best deal.

We ship UPS Monday through Friday so we can get your orders moving fast sometimes the very same day if you call early. If you need a little help choosing the right wines for your gifts, call us and ask for the winemaker. I'll be glad to help you pick the right Fitzpatrick wines to please each person tastes.

Sincerely,

Brian Fitzpatrick
