Chilled crisp whites are exciting when its hot! And when it's not!
I just have to share with you my pleasure and
excitement with my 2006 vintage of whites. I've finally
hit my mark. Actually I've captured youth, fresh, crisp,
fruit, light and refreshing and full of flavor. Flavors that
sip well and do even better quaffing down with foods.
And if Wine Competition results matter, all our 2006
whites have won awards.
Take for instance our 2006 Eire Ban, a sauvignon blanc with an enticingly fresh aroma, with a combination of fruits and the clean refreshing hint of celery on the palate finishing with crisp but perfectly balanced acidity. What a perfect beverage for summer sipping, seafood pairing, cheese and fruit socializing, etc. Great value price of $10 gets an unrepeatable boost when you Buy the Box (case) during July at 40% OFF! That's only $6 per bottle. Looking for the classic King of whites? Our 2006 Chardonnay is a real breakthrough to the other side for us. The lighter, friendlier, happy side of sipping Chardonnay where fresh fruit meets a subtle toasty oak background but in a refeshing lighter style. I'm winning back customers everyday with this 2006 vintage and want you to have a taste too. And Great value gets even better when our $12 chardonnay gets selected for July's Buy the Box (case) club at 40% OFF or $7.20 per bottle. To round out the offering of Summer whites we've selected our 2005 Queen's Gold, that blend of both chardonnay and sauvignon blanc that delivers such an unique mouth sensation. It too at 40% OFF Buy the Box (case) is only $7.20 per bottle. And lest we forget that some of you don't ever drink white wines, I'm adding an extra 4th selection to July's B(u)y the Box (case) offerings - our drinking better than ever 2003 Zinfandel. 40% of $15.00 ends up at only $9 per bottle by the case. That's July's "just do it" no- brainer deal of the month. |

July 6, 13 and 20th
Pizza and the roaming troubador Jerome will stop by
your table this Friday July 6th strumming and singing
his own creations and many favorite cover tunes we all
remember.
Then on the 13th, the acoustic duo of Anderson & Gram is back but debuting at Pizza Night for the first time. Their music runs around the folk, country and bluegrass genres with some excellent self-composed songs and many familiar favorite tunes of yesterday and today. Great voices and musicians not to be missed. Johnny Mojo and friends will be back July 20th to deliver those rockin' blues. Pizza never tasted so good when Johnny's singing the blues. This is the classic three-piece band where you just can't belive how much sound comes out of John Savino on the bass, Phil Pakka on drums and Johnny Mojo on guitar. Plan on extending your Pizza Night with a little dancing. |

More reds listed on the Endangered Vintage List
Just a heads up before its too late, the 2003 Cabernet
Sauvignon, 2003 Cabernet Franc, 2002 Syrah are
officially put on the Endangered Vintage List. Our 2003
Pinot Noir is nearing extinction. These wines are still
available but not for long. Act accordingly but don't say I
didin't warn you.
Friday July 6th. Woke up this hot morning to quite a unique cloud spiral. Ran and got my camera. Thought you might enjoy. |
