Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. How about those Celtics in the Finals once again against the hated Lakers!? It’s gonna be a tough series against Kobe the Rat, Pau the Llama, and 1 of the Kardashian’s husbands, but I think the Celts will pull it out in 6 and raise banner # 18! Even the Sox and big Papi are heating up and keeping pace with the Rays. Things are heating up here at Cork’s as well as the Great Woods season gets into full swing with Summer Jam this Saturday, Dave Mathews in for 2 shows next week, and Jimmy Buffett in for 2 the following week.
We don’t have a beer tasting lined up for this week but we do have 1 every other Thursday in June. We have my cousin Vinnie here next Thursday doing “Summer Beers” from the craft section of Bud. The following week we have Tim Coleman here to sample you on Clipper City brews. Thursday the 24th we have a new sales rep from our friends at Newport Storm down in RI to taste you on their new Summer and Cyclone series beers.
Eric from Baystate Wines will be here this Friday night from 4:30 to 7 PM to taste you on some new wines he represents. Red Newt Riesling is a delicious Riesling from the Finger Lakes region of NY and will get it started. From there we go to Italy for Monte Lareina Verdelho and Roble Tempranillo. All I remember about these wines is that the girl he was with was from Spain…smoking hot…and the way she said V-e-r-d-e-l-h-o was just amazing. I know they are like 6 hours ahead…but I’m going to see if Eric can call her and put her on speaker phone for anybody who wants to hear her say it.
Enough of that...back to the wines…Secreto Malbec is next, followed by a new varietal from Line 39, Petite Sirah. These are both excellent wines and will pair perfectly with ribs or steaks from the grill. He will end the tasting mixing up some cocktails with Puerto Vallarta Silver Tequilla. So be sure to stop by and kickstart your weekend here at Cork’s.
