Red Sox...Spring Tasting...Snow? You need Cork's!

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Well we’re just 2 weeks away from our 6th Annual Grand spring Wine Tasting. It is on Thursday night April 14th from 5 to 7:30 PM. I’m right in the middle of picking out the wines and it looks to be an awesome lineup. We will have more details and a peek at some of the wines on the website at http://www.corksfinewine.com/. And we are just 1 day away from the opening of the Redsox World Series winning 2011 season. I just heard on sports radio that out of 75 prognosticators, all but 12 had the Sox winning it all! So even though it’s going to snow tomorrow it’s all good at 3 PM when the game starts. We will have it on here at Cork’s of course, and I will have my Redsox gear on doing a wine tasting featuring Sox wines.
Tonight’s beer tasting is with Greg from Arborway Imports. He will be pouring the 22 OZ. beers of Clown Shoes out of Ipswich, MA. That lineup consists of Clementine White Ale, Tramp Stamp Belgian IPA, Eagle Claw Fish Imperial Amber, Brown Angel Imperial Brown Ale, Hoppy Feet Black IPA, and Hoppy Feet 1.5 Imperial Black IPA. I haven’t had all these beers yet (I will after tonight as we pre-game for the Bruins!) but the ones I’ve had have been excellent. They’ve got some good press out there and you know we love to support the local guys. So be sure to stop in tonight between 4:30 and 7 and get 10 % off these delicious local brews.

I will be doing a wine tasting this Friday night from 4:30 to 7 PM featuring the wines that are in this week’s wine specials. I will start with 2 wines from Robert Oatley out of Australia. His Pinot Grigio is a bit different than the American and Italian versions with more body and spicy aromas. The Rose of Sangiovese is a great wine for the warm spring and summer months, and pairs great with all kinds of food. Staying in Australia we have Merlot and Cabernet from Marquis Phillips. I got a great deal on these wines and we have them sale priced this week at $10.99 which is $4 off ! And to kick off the Sox opener I’m opening up last year's Chardon-K and ZinfandEllsbury wines. These 2 wines are actually really good but with Beckett sucking last year and Jacoby on the DL most of the year they just didn’t sell as well as Sox wines in the past. We have them almost at cost and they can be yours for just $9.99.
