Hi ,
 | | (left - right) Alison & Grant of Aligra Wine and Spirits, George & Trudy of Gray Monk Winery |
We've had an exciting and busy fall here at Aligra Wine & Spirits. This time of year heralds the start of many new releases for the upcoming winter season. Grant & I had the pleasure of attending a dinner featuring Luigi Bosca Wines from Argentina in early October and a delightful luncheon with Trudy and George, iconic wine couple from Gray Monk Winery in the Okanagan who were visiting Edmonton. |
| What We Have Been Up To:
Tequilafest!
 October 19 at Fantasyland Hotel , Tequilafest proved to be a great time for all who attended. Many suppliers and tequila lovers dressed in their finest Mexican gear for the occasion.

 Fabulous at 50
November 3rd was the fourth annual Fabulous at 50 Martini Experience at Mayfield Convention Centre.
This show geared toward Edmonton's Fabulous Baby Boomer Women is a huge hit and was attended by over 800 fabulous women! We're sponsoring the bar again next year so be sure to catch it in 2013.

Cuban Conundrum
Grant & I stole away on a quick vacation to Cuba
Early November, Grant and I managed to get away for a week to Cuba. We'd had a busy fall with trade shows etc. and wanted a beachy break before the Christmas seasons gets into full swing. We've both been to the Caribbean before, Grant was in Holgien, Cuba 3 years ago, but this was my first trip.
