One week to our big 6th Annual Grand Spring Wine Tasting!!

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. We are just about 1 week away from our 6th Annual Grand Spring Wine tasting. The date is next Thursday April 14th from 5 to 7:30 PM. I’m almost done with the lineup and I must say it’s 1 of the best mixes of wines in quite some time. Here is a quick peek at some of the wines and liquor items we will pouring. Flying Winemaker…First Press…Polka Dot… Gascon…Apothic Red…Las Rocas… Cupcake…J. Lohr…Cellar # 8…Clos Du Val…Girosele…Llama…Rum Jumbie…Cline…Pacific Rim…Cristalino…Gloria Ferrer…Rex Goliath…Liberty School…Ca’ Momi…Mumm…Root 1…BV Coastal…Faust…Shannon Ridge…Stephen Vincent…Sean Minor…Voga…Trapiche…Kendal Jackson…Santa Christina and many more. We should have a complete list up on the website (corksfinewine.com) by this Saturday. We do not have a beer or wine tasting this week as we prepare the store for the grand tasting. Marc does have beer tastings lined up with Sam Adams…Redhook…and Quality Summer Beers in the next 3 weeks. Speaking of Summer Beers most of them have filtered through in the last few weeks and we are currently closing out winter beers at 15 % off. We did a little reset in the fine wine department this past week. We moved French wines to the very back of the laydowns and Spain, Portugal, and European wines are now in that front section. We are also moving South Africa around the corner into the Australia section and expanding our Chile and Argentina wines. Wine Sale Items for week ending 4-13-11

Well it’s a good thing the Sox haven’t started the season yet...what’s that...they have???...how can this lineup be 0 and 5??? Let’s hope we take the finale in Cleveland and come home and turn things around on the Spankees. At least the Celtics and Bruins are putting things together for their post-season runs.

We are now open until 10 PM on Fridays and Saturdays through the summer months. OK...back to work to finish the re-sets and get the store ready for the big tasting. Have a great weekend. Robert
