Aug 5, 2008 Hands (and Paws) in Our Vineyard
Rosie, pictured at left, helps vineyard consultant Deny Dudzik spot unwelcome pests hiding in the vineyard (and just enjoys the ride). Larger visitors leave evidence (above right) in the cool mud beside our pond. We can regularly see evidence of many local critters that visit to share our special corner of Mendocino County. August Special - Semillon
With limited plantings in California, it is becoming difficult to find Semillon bottled separately. However this is our 14th consecutive vintage release. This wine features lots of racy lime flavors, and lime zest aromas as well as notes of mango and vanilla. Steely mid-palate with a note of straw in the lingering finish. A favorite grape of our local wild boar; we have to fight to keep our share! Regular price $20. During the month of August you can save on a perfect summer wine. Our 14th wine for $14. TWELVE bottles at $14 each plus free S&H Just $168 Saves $90!
SIX bottles at $14 each Just $84.00 Saves $36!
Monthly Special offer ends promptly on Sun. Aug 31, 2008 and applies to web and telephone orders (707) 894-9177. Special offer can not be combined with any other discount. August Wine Cartoon © The New Yorker Collection 2008 Martha Gradisher from cartoonbank.com. All Rights Reserved.
