One down 10 more to go.
Wow that sure was a very impressive start to the
postseason by the Redsox. Can they win another World
Series? Will the Patriots go undefeated this year?
Will fall weather ever arrive? I guess time will tell,
but in the meantime here’s what going on at Cork’s.
Our 3rd Annual
Grand Fall Wine Tasting is just a few weeks away. It
will be Friday night October 26th from 5 to 8
PM. We are just starting to plan the wines for the
event and we should have well over 100 wines for you to
sample. I kind of liked the way the raffle went at the
last beer tasting so we will do that again right in the
middle at 6:30. There will be lots of prizes including
a private in store Holiday tasting for up to 10 people
with Tom (he aint heavy he’s my brother) from Carolina
wines. Be sure to check the website (corksfinewine.com)
as we get closer for details and updates.
I don’t have a supplier
lined up for tonight’s beer tasting so we will continue
our fall theme with some new Autumn beers. 1st
up is Abita Pecan Harvest Ale which sounds really good
or freakin weird, I guess we’ll find out. Next is Spaten
Oktoberfest. Then we head up to Maine for Sea Dog
Pumpkin Ale and Gritty’s Halloween Ale. As with all our
Thursday night beer tastings you will receive 10 % off
any of the beers we taste that evening.
Friday night’s wine
tasting will be with a brand new wine distributor here
at Cork’s called Millesimes Fine Wine Traders. Leading
off will be a delicious Prosecco called Sorelle Bronca.
Next up is Vigneti Delle Dolomiti Pinot Grigio followed
by Cesconi Chardonnay. These Italian whites are just
outstanding and great values. We move to France next for
Costieres de Nimes from the Patric Lesec Selections. We
end up back in Italy in the Piemonte region for Mattei
Barbera. All these wines are true “Old World” wines
done at very reasonable prices.
