Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. There are a few new
things going on here at Cork’s. We are slowly expanding
our liquor section and have brought in several new
items. We have brought in the complete f lavor lineup of
Stirrings Mixers and Rimmers for those special martinis
and margaritas. We also have a whole bunch of new liquor
sundries products from glassware to new single and
double wine travel totes. These come in cool colors and
are great when you’re bringing a bottle or 2 to a
friend’s house.
Tom (he ain’t heavy he’s my brother) from Carolina Wines
will be here for one of his usual boisterous tastings
this Friday night from 4 to 7 PM. He will start you off
with Riff Pinot Grigio. This is the introductory PG from
Alois Legeder which I think is the best in the store.
This one is value priced at $10.99 and is delicious.
Next up is the start of my annual Rose kick with Marq
ues de Caceres Rose from Spain. Paul Newman has salad
dressing, coffee, organic cookies, so you knew it was
only a matter of time before he had his own wines. Look
no further we will launch Newman’s Own Chardonnay and
Cabernet tonight. And if that wasn’t enough he has a
bomb Napa Valley Cabernet from St. Supery to finish off
the tasting. So wear your flood pants and old shoes and
don’t forget your earplugs for the Tommy Bolini show.
The Redsox and Yankee’s may be under .500 and fighting
for the cellar but you know that isn’t going to last.
The 1st clash of the titans will be this weekend and we
will kick it off with a Wachusett Brewing Co. beer
tasting featuring the brand new Green Monsta Ale. We
tried to get Wally but apparently he was already booked
so TJ from Wachusett will be here to samp le you on the
Monsta Ale, Bleberry Ale, Summer Seasonal, and probably
a couple of others from this great local brewery. The
time for this special beer tasting on Saturday is from 1
to 3:30 and gives you plenty of time to catch the 4 PM
first pitch on FOX.
Well it finally looks like spring is here as we may hit
70 today. There sure is a ton of stuff going on this
weekend. The Bruins look to end Montréal’s hex as the
NHL playoffs get under way tonight, the Celtics are
resting up for their Championship run, the prestigious
Masters takes place this weekend, and the Boston Militia
kick off their inaugural season this Saturday as well.
We do have a limited amount of free tickets to this
event and we will have tickets available here at Cork’s
for upcoming games as well. And don’t forget to mark
your calendar for our 4th Annual Grand Spring Wine
Tasting which is Friday, May 16th from 4 to 7 PM. I hope
you all have a great weekend.
