Cork's Weekly Newsletter - May 7, 2009
Welcome to Cork’s weekly newsletter. Quite a bit
has happened since the last newsletter…The Bruins
and Celtics getting by the 1st round and
struggling in the next series...the Sox getting
spanked by the Rays (13-0 in the game I went to) but
beating up on the Yankees…the Pats making a ton of
draft day moves...even the Boston Militia off to a
3-0 start….wow!!...breaking sports news as I write
this...Manny tests positive for steroids!!...50 game
suspension!!...I’m guessin his defense will be that
they were in his Flintstone chewables!!
After a couple weeks off, we will be back full swing
into the wine and beer tastings. We have Jean-Mark
here from Newport Storm out of RI here tonight
(Thursday) from 4:30 to 7:30 PM to taste you on
their excellent local beers. He will have their
flagship Amber Ale, Blueberry, Summer Ale, and the
Cyclone Series “Kim”. As with all our beer
tastings, we will have 10 % off any beer you
sample. Please try to come by and help support the
local guys!
We have a special guest here for our wine tasting on
Friday night from 4 to 7 PM. Mademoiselle Fanny
Fouche will be here to taste you on the fabulous
French wines of Laboure Roi. Yea, I know, Bum
Runners has their “sit & spit” tasting the same
night…and I’m sure Duds’s is sampling White Zin or
something, but you need to stop by and taste these
excellent French wines. She will have 3 of their
value “Southern Varietal” wines for you to
taste…Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot, and Cabernet. These
wines, along with the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are
only $7.99 or 2 for $14. Next will be the delicious
’05 Poully Fuisse, a delightful expression of
Chardonnay. Lastly we have a true French Burgundy
(Pinot Noir) called Maximum for under $20!! So even
if you’re going down the street to our competitors,
please stop by and taste these exquisite Old World
wines with Fanny.
We have picked out a date for our 3rd
Annual Customer Appreciation Day. It will be
Saturday, July 25th from 1 to 4 PM. This
is our way of thanking you for being loyal Cork’s
customers. We will have burgers and dogs on the
grill… as well as a few wines…a few beers…a few
liquors...and a ton of stuff to give away!! Be sure
to check the website (corksfinewine.com) for all the
upcoming events we have scheduled. Hopefully the
sun comes out and we have a nice weekend. Oh
yea…Happy Mother’s Day to all you Moms out there!!
