Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter.
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 weekend 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 away 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.
