Fellow Wine Lovers,<\/p>\n
Goodness gracious, c\u2019est le weekend, encore un fois. Sacre bleu and zut alors all round, what an earth shall we write in the email.<\/p>\n
We could write about Wayne washing his jeans with the winning lottery ticket in it. We could write about the tennis and the cricket.\u00a0 We could comment on the bomb scares at Ricard\u2019s Lodge and Raynes Park High.\u00a0 We could confess to turning up to a supplier tasting at the Institute of Directors on Tuesday, 24 hours early, and being told to stroll on.\u00a0 We could suggest setting Zika onto ISIS.\u00a0 We could share the news with you that iconic German brand, Black Tower has announced a major ad spend and a national marketing campaign, using the phrase I know we all associate with the wine \u201cWow! It\u2019s Black Tower\u201d. <\/em>Apparently there will be special packaging for the retail trade which will highlight the new look, as well as a range of regional activities running from March to July in northwest England \u2013 think we might have found their target market!<\/p>\n But we won\u2019t bore you with any of that, because we want to keep your minds clear to focus on a couple of things:<\/p>\n The Park Vintners January sale<\/strong><\/p>\n If I\u2019ve told you once, I\u2019ve told you a thousand times. 6 bottles for the price of 5.\u00a0 16.66% discount off a box.\u00a0 And you can mix it too.<\/p>\n The catch.<\/p>\n You have to partake before close of play on Saturday \u2013 come February, this deal will have been put to bed for another year.<\/p>\n So, even if you\u2019re doing dry January now, be sure to be properly prepared for monsoon February.<\/p>\n Wine & Cheese Tasting \u2013 8pm – Thursday 11th<\/sup> February \u00a320 per person<\/strong><\/p>\n And so we start our sixth year of quest to find the perfect match. It\u2019s a few days before Valentines Day and as we all know nothing says \u2018I love you\u2019 more than a spoonful of Stinking Bishop and a glass of Rioja.\u00a0 Forget about buying him a new decanter or getting her 60 red roses \u2013 this is what everyone really wants!\u00a0 Sign up quick, spaces are filling<\/p>\n Tasting this weekend<\/strong><\/p>\n We were setting up a tasting the other day and were ruminating on the fact that if we turned up to an event, say a wedding or such like, and the two wines on offer were Mezzogiorno Fiano<\/strong> \u00a38.99<\/strong> and Campos de Luz Garnacha \u00a38.49 <\/strong>how very happy and potentially over the limit we would be!\u00a0 So with this in mind we\u2019re going to open them both this weekend purely because we quite fancy it.<\/p>\n So there you go, that\u2019s the first two wines in the case, only four more to go and you\u2019re in big discount country!<\/p>\n Roll on the Thirst of February…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Fellow Wine Lovers, Goodness gracious, c\u2019est le weekend, encore un fois.
