Warm enough for ya? Good to see the summer heat finally here but the last few days were a bit much. The next few days and the week
end
look to be pretty nice though. Let’s hope the Celtics
sneak out a win tonight or on Sunday and come back to
the Garden to wrap up their 17th NBA title.There won’t be any tastings this week as we don’t have a beer vendor lined up and I will be at the REM concert Friday at the Tweeter Center…errr Comcast Center…the heck with that I’m calling it Great Woods from now on. This is a big weekend at Great Woods as Tom Petty and Rush play on Saturday and Sunday as well. So if you’re heading to any of the shows be sure to stop by and stock up
on
beers, ice, coolers, and don’t forget them red cups.Next Friday night, June 20th will be our 2nd Annual Redsox Wine Tasting from 4 to 7 PM. We will taste the 2008 charity wines from Longball Vineyards. This years wines are Sauvignoouuk Blanc, Vintage Papi (Cabernet/Merlot blend), and Captain’s Cabernet. We will have tons of Redsox stuff to raffle off and for those who came last year you know how much fun it was. We are trying to get Redsox Tickets to give aw
ay
this year but as of yet have had no luck. If we can’t
get Redsox tix we will get Pawsox tickets and other cool
Sox stuff. We have plenty of the wines this year so you
won’t have to be on a waiting list. We will also have a
special price on the wines the night of the tasting only
as well. If that wasn’t enough our friend Kevin from
Commonwealth who is doing the tasting insists on having
a bottle of Schwartzhog there as well. This is a brand
new liqueur and is aiming for the “Jager” crowd. So be
sure to stop by try some Redsox wines…help out some
charities…and you can even shoot the Hog!!I will be lining up beer tastings for the summer either on Thursday nights or Saturday afternoons so be sure to check the website (corksfinewine.com) for dates and times. We also have Mark from Horizon doing his 1st tasting at Cork’s on Friday June 27th from 4 to 7 featuring the new crazy “Big House” wines we just got in. And don’t forget our Customer Appreciation Day on Saturday July 26th from noon to 3. I hope you all have a great weekend.

P.S. We’ve had a couple of issues with our e-mails of late. Some of you have said you’re not getting the e-mail until Sat.or Sun well after the tastings each week. We are checking with Verizon as to why that is happening. The 2nd issue is a goof on our end, some of you who have been on the list for awhile our 2nd and 3rd lists were accidentally deleted. We are trying to retrieve these lists as well. If you happen to be reading this on the website and not via your e-mail alert me and I will add you to a new list. We apologize for the inconvenience.
