Dear Feastlings,
We’ve talked about it more than once- old vines make good fruit, and good fruit makes good wine. But old vines can also command a higher price, sometimes a much higher price, that push a lot of these wines out of one’s price range. This week, we’ll pour four Old Vine wines, none of which breaks the $30 price barrier, and with the discounts you get on the wines if you attend the tasting, they’re even more affordable than that.
There’ll be a tasting here this Saturday, July 30th, in the private dining room, and by Zoom as well, and you’re welcome to join us at either. Give a call at (520) 326-9363 and we’ll happily pour you a set of samples and log you in for some good old-fashioned sipping. The tasting, like our others, is a mere $15 plus tax and tip, and there’s a discount to be had on the wines afterward. We hope you can join us.
THE TASTING BEGINS ON ZOOM AT 2:00 PM ON SATURDAY, July 30. THE ZOOM MEETING NUMBER FOR THE TASTING IS 861 0614 2871 and the passcode is 288116.
Old but affordable
