2nd Customer Wine Tasting and Social Networking

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. We have lots going on here as we get ready for our 5th Annual Grand Spring Wine Tasting and our 2nd Customer Wine Tasting as well. We are half way through with our lineup for the spring tasting and we have the lineup all set for this Friday night from 4 to 7 PM.

For our 2nd "Customer Wine Tasting" here at Cork's we have my friends Cara & Cindy to pour 6 of their favorite wines for you to try. They will start with the award winning Westport Brut Sparkling Wine. Simi Sauvignon Blanc will be next, followed by Cindy's favorite white wine of all time, Woodbridge Chardonnay. Cara's favorite varietal, Pinot Noir, is expressed eloquently in the delicious Firesteed Pinot Noir from Oregon. Dona Maria Vinho Tinto, a yummy Portuguese wine will be next. And lastly we wanted the limited release Bogle Phantom, but alas we only received 3 cases and it's long gone. So the girls had to settle for the next best thing, Bogle Old Vive Zinfandel. I hear they are getting some special cheeses and other goodies to pair with the wines. And who knows, maybe that random customer will bring baked stuffed lobster this time!!

Don’t forget we have our Thursday night beer tasting scheduled for tonight (Thursday) from 4:30 to 7:30 PM. We’ve done a few in a row now and they seem to be getting some momentum. Our good friend Yanni from Opa-Opa Brewing Co. will be tasting some of his delicious local growlers. He will have the Pale Ale...Red Rock Ale...IPA...Double IPA... and Brown Ale for you to sample. These are great local beers, and ultra fresh in the refillable 64 OZ. growlers. As with all our Thursday night beer tastings you will receive 10 % off any beer you taste that night. This will also include any Opa-Opa 6-pks or 12-pk Variety. Please come by and help support the local guys!!

For those internet savvy people out there, we are in the process of doing many of the online sites to get more exposure, and let you know what’s going on in a more timely fashion. We’re joining the ranks of social networks, so we’d love to have you be our friend on Facebook or follow us on Twitter. We’re also on MySpace and Digg so look for us there too. We will be adding more pictures and content as we grow into them, but be sure to check us out for up to the minute news. Here’s how you can find us…be our friend…and even follow us…(not too closely or we’ll have to get a restraining order) on all the popular sites. We’re even going to get some You Tube videos going as soon as we get a camera here as well.
