California Wine Month

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Promoted by the California Wine Institute and supported with the Governor's Proclamation, September is officially Wine Month in California [click for details]. Yet we must say that for Yorkville every month is wine month, every week is wine week and every day is a wine day. In the photo at right, Greg, Deborah and Edward pour at the 6th Annual Yorkville Highlands Wine Festival held Aug. 16th. What a terrific event - our best ever!


Monthly Special -

2007 Rosé de Franc


Think of this as a Cabernet Franc Lite. Excellent, dry, refreshing late summer picnic wine. Your first reaction will be "what a beautiful, bright color!" Or even consider saving a bottle to serve with Thanksgiving turkey. We do - its that versatile. Deep ruby color with flavors of raspberry sorbet and red currant candies. Very limited supply. Standard retail price is $18 per bottle. Note that this wine will not be part of our wine club shipments; so now is the best opportunity.

TWELVE bottles at $12 each

plus free S&H

Just $144  Saves $90!

SIX bottles at $12 each

Just $72.00  Saves $36!

Monthly Special offer ends promptly on Tues. Sep. 30, 2008
