Weekly Newsletter

Welcome to the new Corks Weekly Newsletter!

Sorry to have been on hiatus for the past few weeks. Judging by the number of emails and comments we received, it’s safe to say that the email is something a lot of people look forward to! This is always really nice to hear. The reason this is the ‘new’ weekly email is me, our new writer, Kat. For those of you who don’t know me, you can usually find me behind the counter, in the cooler, out back or generally anywhere in the store at any time of day! This will probably be a pretty short email this week, as I get my bearings. We currently don’t have any official tastings lined up for this week, beer or wine, (sorry guys I know free drinks are awesome). But per usual if you come in on Friday night, there just might be a few new things open out back for anyone to try. I’ll do my best to get some of the beer and wine reps in here next week to put on the tastings.

            As always we have our Wine, Beer, and Liquor specials which run from 4-25 until 5-09.

Wine:

            Hugo Veltliner 750 ml $10.99

            Menage a Trois all varietals $11.99

Beer:

            Heineken Loose pk bottles $23.99

            Full Sail Session 12 pks $12.99

Liquor:

            T&W Rum all flavors $19.99

            Genever Diep 9 all flavors $24.99

I hope everyone has a fun and safe weekend!

Shop for Easter and Opening Day here at Cork's Fine Wine!

Welcome to Cork’s Opening Day/Easter newsletter. Well as I start this e-mail, the Sox are less than 7 hours away from their home opener….The Pawsox that is! And I think the parent club might be playing today too. And wouldn’t it be fun to see Papelbon blow a 9^th inning save against my Pirates in their home opener? And if the baseball season getting underway wasn’t enough of a sign that Spring is here, we have Tiger and The Masters teeing off this afternoon.

I’d like to thank all the vendors and all those who attended the Julia’s Garden Wine tasting event last Friday. We had a couple of glitches at the start, but overall I heard it was a great time had by all.

I don’t think Marc has a beer tasting lined up for tonight as he is heading to the South Shore/Cape & Islands Beer Week Grand Tasting this afternoon. Hey, it’s only fair he sneak out for a bit since I got to go see Giada last week at her book signing in RI. Either my disguise worked, or the restraining order was no longer in effect because I got pretty close to her! I’m sure Marc will have new beers and stories to tell you, as there are over 50 breweries in attendance at today’s tasting.

I do have a wine tasting lined up for Good Friday from 4 to 7 PM. I have yet another new wine rep from Winebow Boston…I think that’s 5 in the last year. But my new guy Ed is off to a flying start as he will be pouring some nice wines for Easter to end his 1^st week at Cork’s. He will start you off with Gruet Brut Methode Champenoise from New Mexico. Next will be a nice, drier style, German Riesling called Kreuznacher Kronenberg Kabinett. Next up are 3 wines from Grayson Cellars out of California. These wines drink like $20 plus a bottle and are just $12.99 for the Chardonnay and Cabernet, and $14.99 for the Pinot Noir. And as always, we will also take 10 % off any of the wines you taste that evening.
