Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. We have a special Valentine’s Day wine tasting with Aimee and Clara from “The Wrap” TV show this Friday night from 4 to 7 PM. They will start with a delicious recipe I saw Giada make on her Everyday Italian cooking show (see…I actually do pay attention to the recipes on occasion, Ursula). It is a mix of pomegranate juice, orange juice and we will use Mionetto

The big event is on Saturday January 28th from 2 to 5 PM. Marc has the list almost finished and it looks to be another killer lineup. Here is a snapshot of the beers we will be sampling…Newport Storm…Smuttynose…Offshore Ales…

Welcome to Cork’s Fine Wine weekly newsletter. We have a very special wine tasting lined up for this Friday night from 4 to 7 PM. We have the winemaker, Francis Sanders, from Corked the Comic Wines to taste you on his delicious wines. In addition to Francis, we have the label designer and artist David Griffin here as well. While you’re sampling and talking to Francis (and trust me…he can talk!)

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Very nice win by the Pats last week against the Jets, let’s hope they can keep it rolling against the Cowboys on Sunday. Looks like the B’s are suffering from the Stanley Cup hangover, and the Sox keep cleaning house with Theo out the door now. Now if he could only take Lackey and Crawford with him. Be sure to check out the blog (http://

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Who would have thought that the 2011 Redsox would be home watching the playoffs, and the ’11 Bruins would be raising a Stanley Cup Championship banner tonight at the Garden! Let’s hope the B’s can avoid the Stanley Cup hangover and go back to back, which hasn’t been done for 13 years in the NHL.A big thank you to all who attended our 1st ever Corktoberfest

Welcome to our Corktoberfest newsletter. We are just 2 days away from our 1st ever Corktoberfest Beer Tasting! It is this Saturday, October 1st from 2 to 5 PM. Marc is just about done with the lineup and it looks pretty awesome if I do say so myself. Here is a glimpse of some of the beers we will be pouring. Mayflower…Blue Hills…Clown Shoes…Wachusett…Sierra Nevada…Kona…Goose Island…Magic Hat…

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Well, that was quite a convincing win by the Pats on Monday night. The defense is still a little scary but Tom and the offense were just ridiculously good. Let’s hope they keep it rolling this week against San Diego at home. That is a 4:15 start so be sure to stop in at Cork’s for all your “lubrication” needs as Mr. Brady called it. I will be here working

Welcome to Cork’s soggy newsletter. I hope you all had a good Labor Day weekend because we are sure making up for it with this crappy weather the last few days. At least we have the Pats opener to look forward to, even if we do have to wait until Monday night for it. Let’s hope the Sox can rest up and get healthy as they limp into the playoffs. Speaking of the Redsox, we just got a new wine in

Welcome to Cork’s Hurricane Irene newsletter. What a crazy week it’s been - a rare earthquake on the east coast, (that I never felt) and now a hurricane bearing down on us. Let’s hope it goes out to sea or weakens considerably before it gets our way. For those who don’t know, the Kenny Chesney/Zach Brown/Country Concert has been moved from Sunday to Friday night at 5 PM. As of now Saturdays

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Another gorgeous day as we wind down on the summer season. Perfect weather for the beach, BBQ’s, picnics, concerts, or a baseball game. Speaking of baseball…go Cumberland, RI in the Little League World Series! Let’s see if you can do better than the team I was on in ‘73 as we didn’t even make it out of the 1st round in the state tourney. As the season changes,

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. I hope you’re all enjoying the beautiful summer weather we have been having lately. Not to put a damper on your summer fun, but have you noticed the days getting a little shorter…the nights a bit cooler…the Patriots opening up the pre-season…and yes, even Pumpkin and Oktoberfest beers trickling into Cork’s. Speaking of Oktoberfest, due to some scheduling

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Thanks to all of you who attended the 5th Annual Customer Appreciation Day event on Saturday. The weather was picture perfect…well, maybe a lil warm for Andrew grilling them burgers and dogs. I think there was a great mix of new wines, beers, and spirits to sample. The raffle went off pretty well and I think most everybody won something. This event is a lot of

Welcome to Cork’s heat wave newsletter. It sure is a scorcher today, and it may even hit 100 in the next couple of days. I hope you are all keeping your cool during these dog days of summer. We’re here to help with delicious summer beers and malternative beverages that just go down so smooth when it’s hot. We also have a ton of “Ready to Drink” concoctions to quench that thirst… many of them cold

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. I hope everybody had a great 4th of July weekend. Finally a nice long stretch of warm summer weather is upon us, and after a couple of tweaks, our AC is back up and kicking. We apologize for the “uncoolness” of our store over the weekend but, 1 of rooftop units was not working. A big thank you to Aimee and Clara (AKA The Wrap Girls) for doing a great job at

Welcome to Cork’s 4th of July newsletter. It’s kind of a cool thing celebrating the 4th this year as I was just in Philadelphia yesterday, and saw Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell. Of course it would have been better if the Sox hadn’t lost 2 straight to the Phillies…not to mention losing 2 of 3 to the lowly Pirates. Both are gorgeous ballparks and I highly recommend a visit next time the

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Well, we’ve had a week to bask in the glow of the Bruins Stanley Cup victory. I hope some of you got to go the rolling rally, or the Sox game on Sunday like I did. It was cool to see the duckboats and the Cup in person. Now we just need the Redsox to keep up this torrid pace and bring another World Series trophy back to Boston. We had a very busy weekend here

Wooohooo…Stanley Cup Champions baby!! Can you believe it? After 39 years we have Lord Stanley’s Cup back in Boston. I for one was nervous about game 7 in Vancouver, but it shows the character and the toughness of a game 7 was in the Bruins DNA and not in the cowardness and softness of the Sedin sisters and Looouuuuongo. What a game and series by Tim Thomas, and my lasting impression will be that

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Now that was some old time Bruins hockey Monday night! Let’s hope they keep the momentum going and even up the series tonight. And it looks like the Sox still have the Yankees # as they win again in NY. Now if only the Celtics were going after banner # 18 instead of the despicable Heat. Not that I’ve watched 1 second of it, I’m certainly pulling for Dirk and

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. I hope you all had a great Memorial Day weekend. The weather was pretty good for the most part as I think we’re finally out of our everyday rain cycle. And I’m sure it’s spectacular in the gorgeous Pacific Northwest where the Bruins start their quest for Lord Stanley’s Cup tonight. I’m not sure how many of you have been to Vancouver but it is the most

Welcome to Cork’s Memorial Day newsletter. Well it took forever but I think the nice summer weather is finally here just in time. They are calling for upper 70’s to low 80’s for the holiday weekend. Hopefully the showers will be few and far between so we can get our picnics, barbecues, and beach days in. Just to let you know - all liquor stores have to close on Monday Memorial Day. Kind of a

Welcome to Cork’s soggy newsletter. Will this rain ever stop? It’s a good think the world is ending Saturday because I’m not sure how much more of this I can stand. At least we have the Bruins to root on as they squared the best of 7 series at 1 each last night. And the Sox are a game over .500 with their recent sweep of the evil empire. And we have the opening of Great Woods this weekend with 2

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Tough loss for the Celtics last night. As much as I despise James and Wade, they are 2 of the best players in the NBA right now. That paired with C’s aging veterans and immature youngsters was just too much to overcome. So let’s go Bruins!! It’s going to be a long summer if we just have the floundering Redsox to watch. Good thing we have the Great Woods

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Quite a bit has happened in the last 2 weeks since our last newsletter. I hope everybody had a nice Easter and Passover. The Bruins came back against the Canadiens and are 2 up on the Flyers. The Celts swept the Knicks but are 2 down coming home against the heat. Even the Sox are righting the ship and are poised to get back to .500 tonight against their

Welcome to Cork's 6th Annual Grand Wine Tasting newsletter! I have just put the finishing touches on the line-up and we have 87 wines and 4 liquor items to taste. There are a ton of new wines and if I do say so myself, this is one of the best collections of wines we've had in a while. We have a couple of new suppliers to welcome to the mix and just 14 tables so there should be a little more elbow

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Thankfully we avoided that mini snowstorm that they were talking about. We can’t have any more snow with the Sox opening up in a week. Speaking of the Redsox, this years Longball Cellars wines are ChardonClay and Cabernace for Buchholz and John Lester. They will be here in early May and we’ll taste them when they come in. We had a tasting lined up with

Welcome to Cork’s St. Patrick’s Day newsletter. I’m trying to get the newsletter out a day early to let you all know what’s going on for St. Patty’s Day. That is always a huge day for us here at Cork’s as Megan’s family is from County Cork Ireland. We have our usually huge Guinness display in the front of the store…every Irish Whiskey you can imagine… and our weekly specials will definitely

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. This will be a 2 week newsletter as this time next week I’ll be on St. Maarten Island in the Caribbean on my fabulous cruise…thanks Sis and Oprah!! So we’ll talk about tastings for the next couple of weeks and the sale will be good for 2 weeks as well. So we’ll cover a lot of topics in a brief fashion. So let’s get the sports references out of the way off

Welcome to Cork's weekdly newsletter. Well, we're finally getting rid of some of those massive piles of snow out there. And I think it's going to rain like crazy tomorrow and be in the 50's so maybe we can wash the rest of it away. And if you need another sign of spring, the Sox open their exhibition schedule with their anual double header sweep of BC and Northeastern. Here at Cork's, we have

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter….ahhhh, finally some nice, warm, spring-like weather, and the Sox full squad workouts underway. Let’s hope we’re done with the snow for this year and we can finally put this miserable winter to rest. To push that thought along, all “Winter Beers” will be 10 % off as part of our weekly specials. Most of the Spring beers are already in house and I wouldn’t be

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Well even though the Pats weren’t in it, I think we had a pretty good Super Bowl this year. But I have to say the commercials were sub par…that E-trade baby just isn’t all that funny as a 4 year old. But now we can concentrate on the Bruins who had an epic, fight-filled win over the Canadiens last night and the Celtics who go for the regular season sweep

Welcome to Cork’s “Winter Wonderland” and “Big Game” Bowl newsletter. These snowstorms are getting just a little ridiculous now, don’t you think? I heard when Punxsutawney Phil came out of his hole he was immediately pelted with snowballs, became rabid and bit the ankle of Bill Murray… so now we have 3 more months of winter. Well the good news is we have less than a week before the Sox

Welcome to Cork’s snowy newsletter. I hope you all survived the latest winter blast we just had. I got about 18 inches down in RI, and it looks like there is at least that here as well. Hopefully you were all snuggled in your jammies and robes like I was all day. We didn’t open the store as most of you were home, and the Governor Patrick issued a state of emergency for Mass. I didn’t do it this

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Wow...what a week on the local sports scene. Huge win for the Pats last week as they are now in the drivers seat for their Super Bowl run. And the Sox pull off a blockbuster trade and add the best offensive free agent on the market. Personally I like the trade for Gonzalez but I think the Crawford signing is greedy and further illustrates why the sport needs a

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. I hope you all had fun at our 6th Annual Grand Holiday Wine Tasting last week. I thought the food from Cibo Matto Cafe was great, and that pork tenderloin paired perfectly with so many of the wines. I was a little disappointed that we only had Jeff the referee in a Halloween costume, but at least he kept the obnoxious whistle blowing to a minimum. We did

Welcome to Cork’s 6th Annual Grand Holiday Wine Tasting newsletter. We are less than 24 hours away from our biggest wine tasting of the entire year. It is this Thursday October 28th from 5 to 7:30 PM. We have 85 wines and 11 liquors for you to sample. The event will be catered by Cibo Matto Caffe, and I hear Peter is cooking up some fabulous dishes to pair with the wines. We encourage you to

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. While we’re in the welcoming mode I’d like to introduce Marc, our new beer manager. He joined the Cork’s team this week and will be running all things beer here at the store. He is an accomplished home brewer and a member of the South Shore Brew Club. He has some great ideas and is already cleaning up the microbrew section. He already has some of his

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. I hope you all are enjoying the crisp fall weather we’ve been having. These are perfect cool nights to enjoy an Autumn beer and your favorite red wine. Now if we only had the Sox to watch and root for in the playoffs. I guess the next best thing is to root against the Yankees…go Rangers! The Bruins are back stateside after a split in Prague…and let’s hope the

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Day 2 of the Randy Moss trade and I’m much less angry about it today. Apparently he was not the good teammate and soldier we were led to believe he was. At some point you become a cancer, and like Manny, it is addition by subtraction and you must go. Good thing we have the Celtics and the “Big Shamrock” opening the exhibition season last night, and the

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. I guess the summer weather isn’t over just yet as we get this tropical rainstorm today and tomorrow. If you’re one of those who want to hang onto summer as long as possible (and wear shorts like the Cork’s staff) we will take 10 % off any summer beers hanging around. We have a rack in the front of the beer section and we will put those neon round stickers

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. We have picked out a date for our 6th Annual Grand Fall Wine Tasting. It will be Thursday night October 28th from 5 to 7:30 PM. We’ll bring in a bunch of new and interesting wines for the Fall and upcoming Holiday Season. Since it is just a couple of days before Halloween we encourage you to wear a costume for the event. We’ll even give out a gift to all in

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Thank you all who came to our 6th Annual Kick-Off Beer Tasting last Saturday. I think it went well and there was a good mix of new beers…fall beers…and liquors to satisfy everybody’s tastes. I think the weather was just perfect and with the Pats kicking butt in the home opener (and the Jets losing Monday night) it was a perfect weekend. Now if we can sneak

Welcome to Cork’s 6th Annual Kick-Off Beer tasting newsletter. We are just 2 days away from our biggest beer tasting of the year. This Saturday, September 11th from 2:30 to 5 PM is the date and time. I’m just finishing up the lineup and it looks to be heavy on local beers, fall seasonals and Oktoberfest beers! Here is a snapshot of what we will be tasting…Sam Adams…Ommegang…Wachusett…Rogue…

We have a bunch of stuff going on as Hurricane Earl churns up the east coast. We have a tasting with Vinnie from Quality Beverage on Thursday night and a Beringer wine tasting on Friday night. Both are sponsors of the Deutsche Bank Golf Tournament this weekend and we have tickets and tons of other stuff to give away. We are also just 9 days away from 1 of our biggest beer tastings of the year.

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Finally it looks like the rain is behind us and we have a nice stretch of summer weather ahead of us. We have a lot going on here at Cork’s as we have a beer tasting tonight, a customer wine tasting Friday night, and a liquor tasting Saturday night. We’ve got the Pats home tonight in the only pre-season game worth watching. And the Sox look to hang in the

Things are ramping up here at Cork’s as we plan our 6th Annual Kick-Off Beer Tasting which is on Saturday September 11th from 2:30 to 5 PM. We have a bunch of Oktoberfest beers in house already, and more arriving daily. We have 2 Tom Petty concerts - tonight and Saturday night….the Pats with pre-season game # 2 tonight in Atlanta….and the Sox still hanging around the playoff hunt despite all

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. I hope you all had a good time at our 4th Annual Customer Appreciation Day on Saturday. The weather was picture perfect and I think we had a good mix of beer, wine, and liquors to taste. The raffle went off pretty well, although we couldn’t trick my sister into saying any naughty names like Erin usually does. The only thing I think we will change next year

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. It sure has been a warm muggy summer, finally we have a little relief from the humidity today. But my beer suppliers aren’t complaining, it has been a huge summer for beer and malternative beverage sales. To keep the momentum going we have Jeff or Jeb or somebody from Mayflower Brewing here tonight for our Thursday beer tasting. He will be here from 4:30

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Not too much going on as we are in the middle of the dog days of summer. We have a couple of concerts coming up this weekend with Tim McGraw on Saturday, and American Idol Live on Sunday. How the heck did Lee Dweeb beat Bowersox anyway?!? OK…I admit to watching Idol on occasion… mainly for the train wrecks in the beginning, but there have been some very good

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Hot enough for ya?!? This has sure been a crazy hot stretch with no end in sight. I hope you all have central AC or an air conditioner or 2 to get through this. I do know we’ve sold a ton of beer and malternative beverages to help cool you down. Be sure to check out our Summer Beer display in the front of the store, and also our huge “Variety” 12 pack display

It looks like the weather is going to be fantastic right through the holiday weekend! We will be open on Sunday July 4th from noon to 5 PM. We will also be open regular hours on Monday July 5th from 10 to 9 for those last minute cookout needs. We have a ton of summer beers in a display up front, and we’re fully stocked on all your summer spirits and mixers as well. And let’s not forget those

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. It’s been a busy week for us at Cork’s with Buffet and Phish in town for concerts at Great Woods. We keep the momentum going with Brooks & Dunn on Saturday and Bamboozle (whatever the heck that is) on Sunday. I think we’ve come up with a date for our 3rd Annual Customer Appreciation Day as well.

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. I need to make this pretty brief as we need to prepare for the immanent invasion of the Parrotheads for day 1 of Jimmy Buffet. And of course, start to build momentum for game 7 of the NBA Finals. I really thought the C’s would take it in game 6, but I think it will be even sweeter now to win on their court in game 7! Looks like the weather is clearing up for

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Let’s hope the Celtics can rebound and even up the series with the Lakers tonight. How can Ray Allen go from having 1 of the best games in the history of the finals, to 1 of the worst the very next game? All we need is 2 of the “Big 4” to step up and I think we’ll be all right. Good to see the Blackhawks win their 1st Cup in over 40 years…sorry George…not

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

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. How about those Celtics!! Up 2-0… and looks like they are on their way to the NBA Finals once again. Too bad the B’s choked away their bid for the Cup, or we would have had 2 teams in the Eastern Finals. And the Sox…they just wallow away at .500 with a less than interesting or inspiring team in my opinion. Speaking of the Sox, we did get the

Let’s start off with tonight’s beer tasting from 4:30 to 7 PM with our Greek friend Yanni from Opa-Opa. He will have a bunch of his fresh 64 OZ growlers for you to sample.

Even the Sox are going for a sweep against Angels. I see lots of opportunities to load up on your favorite wine, beer, and booze and enjoy the local sports scene.We have Vinnie or 1 of his boys here tonight for our

Welcome to Cork's weekly newsletter. What an amazing week it has been for the local teams. From Darnell (I'm lovin' it) McDonald's homer and walk-off heroics to the KG-less Celtics squashing the Heat capped by a thrilling 2 OT game winning goal from Satan! And if that wasn't enough, the 3 day NFL draft kicks off today with the 1st round selections. And let us not forget Earth Day today. We always

Welcome to Cork's weekly newsletter! Well, this many be one of the more interesting weeks for the local pro teams. You have the Bruins and Celtics starting their playoff runs. The Sox are heading back to Fenway for Patriot's Day weekend games. And the Patriots are getting ready for next week's NFL draft. And let's not forget the Boston Marathon on Monday either. Sounds like plenty of opportunties

Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. I don’t know about you but I’m thinking the Sox need to bring out lil Joshua Sacco before every game with the evil empire. For those who still haven’t seen his “Miracle” speech you have to check it out on YouTube. Now we just got to get him to The Garden for Celtics and hopefully Bruins playoff runs. I’m thinking they should probably keep him away from the

Well they keep saying sunshine and in the 70”s this weekend, but I’ll believe it when I see it. Either way we’re ready for a big weekend here at Cork’s.

I will update the website and alert you in a future newsletter when we get a new date. We do have a special beer tasting lined up for this Saturday from 2:30 to 5 PM.

I hope you all had your Guinness, Jameson, Baileys, or at least a green beer or 2 for St. Patty’s Day. I love this time of year as the days get longer and it’s going to come close to 70 today!

I will update the website (corksfinewine.com) with details and the new date
