Tuesday Night Tastings
Kenwood Winery's "Jack London" Series
May 19, 2009 6 to 8pm
$10 pp including wine & cheese
Author Jack London once wrote of Sonoma County, "The air is wine. Across Sonoma Mountain, wisps of sea fog are stealing. The afternoon sun smolders in the drowsy sky. I have everything to make me glad I am alive."
This patch of earth that so captivated Mr. London is home to Kenwood Vineyards. Kenwood plants, farms and harvests the historical, lava-terraced vineyards of Jack London's ranch, producing Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, and Merlot wines. Made only from Jack London vineyard grapes, these three wines are savored for their mint-accented berry flavors and smooth finishes. The dramatic Jack London label --a replica of the wolf's head Jack London used as his book-plate logo -- has created tremendous consumer interest and recognition in the wines. Over 800 acres of Jack London's Beauty Ranch are now owned and operated by the California State Parks System. Visitors have the opportunity to hike, bike or horseback ride through much of the property, as well as view many of the ranch's buildings and Jack London home and grave, including the remains of the Wolf House. |

NCAA LACROSSE CHAMPIONSHIPS

The NCAA Men's Lacrosse Championships will be held May 23-25, 2009 at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass. Whether you are a die-hard lacrosse fan, have a son or daughter playing or just a casual sports fan, this event, featuring the best college lacrosse teams in the country, is as good as it gets.
It all starts with one ticket that gets you access to five awesome lacrosse matches - the Division I SemiFinals on Saturday, the Division II and III Finals on Sunday and the Division I championship game on Monday.
