Huge thanks to the WB mods and members for putting this together.
For many of us, our issues over the next weeks (months?) will not be a lack of wine. Instead it may be that we need connection and want new experiences that extend beyond our small circles of family and loved ones.
On Sunday, 3/29 at 2PM PST, we will host an interactive tasting for WB board members. We will get together online, face to face, taste, laugh, and raise collective spirts.
We will taste through 3 Dirty and Rowdy vineyard designate Mourvèdre from radically different vineyards
2018 Shake Ridge Ranch Mourvèdre Amador County- Volcanic and Granitic Soils 2018 Rodnick Farm Mourvèdre Chalone AVA- Limestone and Granite 2018 Enz Vineyard Old Vine Mourvèdre 100 Year Old Vines, Own Rooted, Limestone and Granite
I have put together a 6 pack of these wines which includes ground shipping in the lower 48. The 6 pack includes 2 bottles of each wine (one to taste along with on 3/28 and one for later).
I will send the tasting link and further instructions to everyone that purchases the 6r.
I may have to appear slightly drunk with a bretty Beaucastel and Bandol handy, while the virus and global warming limit my shipping options to Florida!
In for a pack. And the Zoom is here https://zoom.us/. Love the Zoom idea. My friends and I have started Zoom happy hours as we are locked down the next 3 weeks in SF.
Yes- https://zoom.us is the tool we will use. I will send out the link and more info at the end of the week.
One important note, ideally everyone will want to have a set of good headphones or speakers attached to their computer. We have a special guest joining us that you definitely want to tune in to. (This is going to be very very cool)
It is a Dirty and Rowdy tasting so that sounds about right!
really looking forward to this tasting. hoping that McCarus gets these wines to SC before then because I promised a local shop that just went pickup only to grab them there.
Thanks Patrick and Joe! I look forward to seeing you.
For East Coasters, if you’d like to participate in the tasting on 3/28, we would love to have your orders in today so you can still utilize the free / included ground shipping.
Thanks John and David- This is going to be a great event. We just finished our first rehearsal for this Saturday’s tasting (which is just 1 wine vs. the 3 for the WB pack) and we are totally psyched.
