E- News from the Balistreri Tasting Room                                 June 2010
Greetings! ,  
 
We have so many things happening this month that we wanted to share a couple more events with you and some exciting news about our 2008 Colorado Sangiovese!
 
08 SangioThis wine just received a
Double Gold medal & Best of Varietal at the International Eastern Wine Competition! It has also been awarded a Gold medal at the Colorado Mountain WineFest last Fall, as well as Silver and Bronze medals at other International competitions. Wine Club Members may be familiar with this Sangiovese, as it was "Wine of the Month" for last month and last August when it was just released. This 2008 will certainly shine as one of the best vintages of Colorado Sangiovese for years to come. It's a prize at $22! Click here to read Winemaker notes.
 
Next Thursday, we will be supporting Revision International for a Winemaker dinner at Gaia Bistro on South Pearl.  To encourage dinner reservations, Balistreri Vineyards & Dream Italia are offering a free ticket to Italian Movie Night here at the Winery!

We hope to see you soon!
